Here's a quiz that is likely to tie you up in a mental knots for an hour or so. Afterward, you can repair your shattered ego by trying some of these teasers on your friends. First one to get three correct answers will be the best response. Good luck mylot users! :) 1. The number of eggs in a basket doubles every minute. The basket is full of eggs in a n hour. When was the basket half full? 2. Is it legal for a man to marry his widow's sister? 3. If 3 cats can kill 3 rats in 3 minutes, how long will it take 100 cats to kill 100 rats? 4. Which is correct: 8 and 8 is 15 or 8 and 8 are 15? 5. The archeologist who said he found a silver coin marked 649 B.C. was either lying or kidding. Why? P.S. I will post the answer after one week on the first response to this post so you can all see the result. Thanks :)
