| There
are 3 gentlemen in a meeting: Mr. Yellow, Mr. Green and Mr. Brown. They
are wearing yellow, green and brown ties. Mr. Yellow says: "Did you
notice that the color of our ties are different from our names?"
The person who is wearing the green tie says, "Yes, you are
right!" Do you know who is wearing what color of tie? (1) |
| There
are 3 triplet brothers. They look identical. The oldest is John, he
always tells the truth. The second is Jack, he always tells a lie. The
third is Joe, he either tells the truth or a lie. Jimmie Dean went to visit them one day. He was wondering who was who. So he asked each person a question. He asked the one who was sitting on the left: "Who is the guy sitting in the middle?". The answer was "He is John." He asked the one who was sitting in the middle: "What is your name?". The answer was "I am Joe." He asked the one who was sitting on the right: "What is the guy sitting in the middle?". The answer was "He is Jack." Jimmie Dean got really confused. Basically, he asked 3 same questions, but he got 3 different answers. Would you find out who is who for Jimmie? (2) |
| Jimmie
Dean visited an island. There were 2 tribes living on this island. The
east tribal people always tell a lie. The west tribal people always tell
the truth. Jimmie Dean saw a guy passing him. He asked the tour guide to ask that guy where he lives. The tour guide asked the guy and came back with the answer: he lives over west. Did the tour guide tell the truth or tell a lie? (5) |
