One fish each, three fish, means we have three people, we'll call them A, B and C. A is B's father. B is C's father. (A is C's grandfather). That's two fathers. B is A's son. C is B's son. (C is A's grandson). That's two sons. Either that or they lose one of the fish on the way home. That is correct! Here's another for the day: What do the letter 't' and an island have in common?
They're both in the middle of.... octean? Lol. |

A horse is tied to a five meter rope in front of an old saloon. Six meters behind the horse is a bale of hay. Without breaking his rope, the horse is able to eat the hay whenever he chooses. How is this possible? |

You are correct! Ready for a another riddle? Here it is:
You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth? |

I think for it to work as a riddle, whether the door lies or not needs to be separate from whether it is the correct door or not. |

Ask the door if it's a door(or something along those lines - several possibilities). |

ask which door the other door would tell you to go through then pick the other one - either way it's going to be a lie so pick the other one and your good. |

The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth? "If I asked the other door which one of you led to the City of Lies, what would it say?" Then go through the one it tells you.
Explanation: the Liar would lie about the Truth's answer.
the Truth would say the Liar's answer.
either way, that question would get the opposite answer from what you asked every time, as there are only two possible answers.
FINAL EDIT: 2:20:2013 11:36PM Pacific There are other, more easily understood riddles in this same vein. In one, it's guardians to the gates of Hell and Heaven. In another, you're in an arena and they guard doors with lions behind one and the exit in the other. |

Scheneighnay and gbghg, you are both correct! Here's another riddle to finish off your day:
The paragraph below is very unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? "Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gatsby , walking towards that group, saw a youg girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... " The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930s. |
