    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.

    Chicken across. Get fox. Trade for chicken. Go back trade chicken for seed. Take seed. Go get chicken.


    And George, for his sake, I hope they did. If not, at least he has a nice place to store his truck.

    About the same number of steps
    Either way its all about keeping the fox and bird food together.

    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...

    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).

    You gotta think this stuff through, David.

    Or if you walk on water like me, then there is no problem.

    Isn't it "two coins make up 30 cents, one is not a nickel"

    If thats the riddle, quarter and a nickel.
