He weighs meat because he's a butcher.

For anyone that wants a super duper challenge:

The following puzzle is rated the hardest difficulty by MENSA. (Don't be lame and google the answer )

The riddle: 100 prisoners are in separate solitary cells, unable to see, speak or communicate in any way from those solitary cells with each other.

There's a central living room with one light bulb; the bulb is initially off. No prisoner can see the light bulb from his own cell.

Everyday, the warden picks a prisoner at random, and that prisoner goes to the central living room. While there, the prisoner can toggle the bulb on/off if he or she wishes. Also, the prisoner has the option of asserting the claim that all 100 prisoners have been to the living room. If this assertion is false (that is, some prisoners still haven't been to the living room), all 100 prisoners will be shot. However, if it is indeed true, all prisoners will be set free. Thus, the assertion should only be made if the prisoner is 100% certain of its validity.

Before the random picking begins, the prisoners are allowed to get together to discuss a plan. So ---- what plan should they agree on, so that eventually, someone will make a correct assertion?

Q: How can the prisoners tell, with certainty, that all 100 of them have visited the central living room with the light bulb.

Let me think about this for a while and I'll get back to you on it XD

There is nothing else provided? No toilet paper, toothbrush? Also, what toggles the light to turn on and off? Can you unscrew the lightbulb?

Greg, I think you finally stumped Joseph, Jeremy, and Smash :p

Nothing else is provided such as toilet paper (No ripping pieces of paper until 100 are in the room )

Um....let's say a standard light switch toggles the light. And you can't unscrew the lightbulb.
