Let's have a few riddles. This'll give me something to do during my down time at work the next day or so while I wait on pipe to arrive.
A guy is walking through the woods and comes to a creek. He is carrying a fox, a chicken, and a bag of chicken food. He can only carry one across at a time. How does he get them all across without the fox eating the chicken or the chicken eating the seed.
I recuse myself as I've been down this road.
i was wondering if a certain set of 9" axles ever showed up, thats a good riddle itself
Come on George. I crapped his topic enough already. :lol:
Hmmmm.
Take chicken over, come back and get chicken food, take that to the other side, pick up the chicken again, take it back to the first side, drop it off and pick up the fox, take the fox to the side with the chicken food, then go back and retrieve the chicken?
:lol:
Chicken first, then food(it's in a bag so the chicken can't get to it anyway), then the fox. My question is how the hell he is carrying a fox and it's not tearing his ass up! I sure hope its in a crate. If that's true then there is no dilemna. Fox first, then food then chicken.
Seed, Fox, Food. Fox won't eat the seed, chicken sill be last over with you so the fox won't eat it.
Cant leave the fox with the chicken on the side youre crossing from to drop off the seed. Endless is the big winnerQuote:

And George, for his sake, I hope they did. If not, at least he has a nice place to store his truck.
It's a dang creek. Throw the fox over. Throw the seed over. Carry the chicken across. No reason for multiple trips. It's a CREEK.
I win.
Next riddle, please.

Actually they did and were wrong again.. I thought it was funny but luke didn't. Seems to be the norm. One was 2.5 offset and other was 2.375. They were fixed in-house...Quote:

Clearly you've never tried to cross a creek holding a fox, a chicken, and a bag of seed all at the same time. Creek rocks are slippery due to the accumulation of algae. If this guy is so desperate in life that he's carrying around a fox (obviously tamed and utilized to help him hunt for small game), a chicken, and seed - he can't risk slipping and losing any of his cargo. Since the fox is tame, toss him over and he'll wait (or kick up a squirrel like a good tame fox would), toss the seed over (no use risking dropping it into the creek), and carry the chicken (he can't swim or fly across).Quote:

if the fox is so tame it wont eat your chicken so why is there so much to worry about?

how do you get 30 cents without one coin being a nickle?
Isn't it "two coins make up 30 cents, one is not a nickel"Quote:

lmfao
my, you sure do seem to know your cocks :luv:Quote:

He climbed.
Does a Catholic priest prefer a 10 year old Scotch or a 10 year old Scott?
Neither, they both are too old.Quote:

Someone else grabbed the other 2, there I've donated to this gayness.Quote:

The 11 toothpicks were arranged in the form of a number 9.
XII-I equals XI or IX=9
I'm with Garrisson. Is this still a topic?
No the remaining toothpicks are arranged to spell NINE.
that was an awful riddle btw
:lol:
