Think!!!!!!!!!!!!
"I say something. If it is truthful, will you give me your photo?"
"Yes," replied miss.
"And if it is a lie, do not give me your photograph. Would you promise that?"
The girl agreed. Then the chap said such a sentence, that after a little while of thinking she realized, that if she wanted to honor her promise, she wouldn't have to give him a photo but a kiss.
What would you say (if you were him) to be kissed and so on?
Lying???
Strange Island
There are people and strange chipanzees on this island, and you can not tell who is who. They speak either only the truth or only lies.
Who are the following two guys?
A: B is a lying chimpanzee. I am human.
B: A is telling the truth.
A court trick
This time you are one of the inhabitants of the island. There was crime committed and people think you did it. At the court you can say only one sentence to save your life. So what do you say?
- If you were a lier (the court does not know that) and you were innocent. It is known that a swindlecant did it.
- The same situation but you are guilty.
- If you were an honester (the court does not know that) and you were innocent. It is known that an honestant did it.
- If you were innocent and everybody knows that the one who did it is not normal. Normal people sometimes lie and sometimes speak the truth. What sentence, no matter if you were an honestant, a swindlecant or normal can prove your innocence?
Honesters and liers
There are two kinds of people on a mysterious island. There are so-called Honesters who speak always the truth, and the others are liers who always lie.
Three fellows (A, B and C) are having a quarrel at the market. A gringo goes by and asks the A fellow: "Are you an Honester or a lier?" The answer is incomprehensible so the gringo asks B: "What did A say?" B answers: "A said that he is a Swindlecant." And to that says the fellow C: "Do not believe B, he is lying!" Who is B and C?
they?
Humans and wolves
Three humans, one big wolf and two small wolves are to cross a river:
- Only humans and the big wolf can row the boat.
- At all times, the number of humans on either side of the river must be greater or equal to the number of wolves on that side. (Or else the humans will be eaten by the wolves!)
- The boat only has room for 2 (wolves or humans).
- wolves can jump out of the boat when it's banked.
Goat, Wolf and Spinach
How shall the farmer get everything on the other side ?
