i'm not sure where Joseph finds those, i guess we'll wait until he posts one.

here's one.

In a contest, four fruits (an apple, a banana, an orange, and a pear) have been placed in four closed boxes (one fruit per box). People may guess which fruit is in which box. 123 people participate in the contest. When the boxes are opened, it turns out that 43 people have guessed none of the fruits correctly, 39 people have guessed one fruit correctly, and 31 people have guessed two fruits correctly. The Question: How many people have guessed three fruits correctly, and how many people have guessed four fruits correctly?

Did anyone get the answer to Josephs riddle?

not me/ nvm, i didn't try cus i know wouldn't get it

The remaining 10 people all guessed four fruits correctly. If you guess three right, then you'd have to get the 4th correct too!

gud job., a tricky riddle but u got it

one more !

You are walking down a road and you encounter a fork in the road and you do not know the correct way to go. There are two men standing at the junction and both know the correct road. One man always lies, and the other man always tells the truth, but you do not know who is the liar and who is the one who tells the truth. You can only ask each man one question, but it must be the same question for both. What is the question that would allow you to get the information necessary to choose the correct path?

I've heard this one before, I won't spoil it as I think it's really neat!

I'm not sure the last riddle Joseph posted is solvable. It mentions 8 couples but when I was working on it I distinctly obtained data for at least 9 and I'm pretty sure I was on the right track and this wasn't very far into the problem

It's tricky,here u can try this one. this made me laugh though.

A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman, an attractive girl named Sarah. The bus driver had to go on a long bus trip that would last a week. Before he left, he gave Sarah seven apples. Why?

Haha, an apple a day keeps the doctor away?

7 days = 7 apples

An apple a day keeps hte doctor away

Edit: Damn you, Gregory.

OH I have one. I didn't even realise it was a riddle. A scientist goes exploring into the wilderness and eventually reaches a snowy field. While excavating areas, he notices a body. Wondering about the identity of the man, he examines him and through one identifying feature realises he has found Adam. How did he know?

I'll take a few shots:

The scientist came upon a graveyard, and read the tombstone of the body he dug up.

Or the body had a wallet and inside was his drivers license.

Either of those work?

Nope And by Adam, I'm referring to the person many believe was the first man

Edit: Tell me if you'd like the answer Greg
