What is the problem?

Here's one for you:
A man builds a house with four walls. All four walls face south.
A short while later, a bear wanders past. What colour is the bear?

Post by **Mikey** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 2:49 pm

Wasn't this the first one on the thread? The bear is white. If all four walls face south, then the house must be at the North Pole, and the bear is therefore a polar bear.

Oh, I may have asked that already. Damn.
Okay, how about this one:
Some months have thrity days, others have thirty one. How many have twenty eight?

Post by **Teaos** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 3:52 pm

That has to be a trick since the answer sounds like Febuary. Which would be one. Or none since Feb sometimes has 29.

Post by **Tsukiyumi** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 3:54 pm

All months have twenty eight days.

I may be NVTS, but logic is not lost on me.
