Yep. Monopoly it is.

Now you can get to work on the other one.

This thread is pretty useful. I'm learning lots of new ones that I didn't know before. And they are dead useful on long boring drives. Which I'll be doing alot of next month in Brazil....

A man walks into a room, turns around and walks out the same door he went in. When he gets out he is in a different room than when he started. How is this possible

is he in a ,lift

Kingp35

he is in a lift

monkeyfudge

yawn... yes... yes he is...

I think I'm tapped out at this stage... I might go get something to eat and see if I can remember some more...

A man falls overboard and gets washed ashore an island with nothing but sand. The island is 50 miles from the nearest land. He can't swim, the water's 100 feet deep, and the island has nothing to make a floatation device with. With no help from people, animals, fish, or machines he finds a way off the island. How does he do it?

johnor

Alright
3 people are sharing a hotel room. The Bill comes to €30, so each of them pays €10 each. Later the manager comes and realises he overcharged them by €5, as the room was only supposed to be €25, so he gives the bell boy 5 €1 coins to give back to them.
The bellboy decides to keep €2 as a tip and gives each of the people €1 back, so they payed $9 each.

3 x €9 is €27 and the bellboy took €2 which is a total of €29. But they payed €30. Where did the other euro go?

steveland?

He doesn't need to get to other land... just off the island so he just goes for a swim...

I spent 3 hours in a pub one day telling thirty different people how to do this ****ing sum, and none of them understood or wanted to listen. Now i forget.

steveland?

Arg!!! I heard it before but I can't think of it and now it's wrecking my head!

Stoopid Brain!

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

i think you subtract the 2 euro the bellboy took from the 27, to get 25 for the price of the room
but I have no idea why you should do this..

steveland?

Ah i got it.

They're paying €9 each which INCLUDES the €2 tip

Blisterman

Yeah. Another way of solving it is this
"the next day 2 guys share a room and again, they are charged €30 instead of €25, so the bell boy goes up, gives them €1 each and keeps 3, so each of them payed €14 with a total of €28, plus the bell boy kept €3 leaving a total of €31.

Thats where the extra euro went.

My thinking is... that if the island is in a lake and not in the sea.. and the island is sufficiently far north... then the lake might freeze over and he could walk to safety... I wonder if the island has a bridge that can only carry 80 Kilos and he weighs 81?

steveland?

Then it's a good thing there's no food!

Since you liked the die hard one, see if you can remember this one:

As I was going to St. Ives, I met a man with seven wives. Every wife had seven sacks, every sack had seven cats, every cat had seven kitts. Kitts, cats, sacks, wives, how many were going to St. Ives?
