Wilky 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 If I lived next door to you and my peacock jumped the fence and laid an egg in your garden, who does the egg belong to? is it mine because it's my bird or yours because it's your property? Three men go out for a drink and the bill comes to £27, so they each pay the waiter £9, the waiter gives the money to his boss, who realises that the men have been overcharged by £5, so he gives the waiter £5 to give back to the men, the waiter realises he can't give them an exact equal share of £5, so he keeps £2 and gives them back the £3, so now the men have paid £8 each (£24) and the waiter has kept £2, where's the other £1 gone?

Wilky 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 The great houdini was placed in a concrete room, walls floor were all 4ft thick no windows, the ceiling was fifty feet from the floor the only thing in the room was a table. He placed a bet that he would be out by morning. So they bricked up the door and left for the night. When they opened up the room the next morning Houdini was gone...how did he escape? I've heard this before, but he had a mirror and a table, he looked in the mirror and saw what he saw, so he took the saw and cut the table in half, put the two halves back together to make a whole, and then crawled through the whole. It's a bit cack, but that's how I've heard it said. So maybe in yours, he just smashed the table in half, put the two halves back together to make a whole and crawled through that.

Stabs 3 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Three men go out for a drink and the bill comes to £27, so they each pay the waiter £9, the waiter gives the money to his boss, who realises that the men have been overcharged by £5, so he gives the waiter £5 to give back to the men, the waiter realises he can't give them an exact equal share of £5, so he keeps £2 and gives them back the £3, so now the men have paid £8 each (£24) and the waiter has kept £2, where's the other £1 gone? So there're 3 blokes with 9 quid in their pocket. They hand this over to the waiter for their dinner. The bill should have come to 22 quid, so there's a fiver coming back and they are due 1 pound 66 pence back each. The waiter gives them back a quid a piece and pockets the 66 pence off each of them. 66p x 3 = 2 quid. They actually paid 7.33 (22 quid) for the meal but ended up paying 8 quid as the waiter took 66p each as a "tip" It confuses things when you say they paid 8 pound for the meal. They didn't. They paid 7.33 plus a "tip" of 67p. Therefore they paid 7.33 + 67p = 8.00 plus the pound they got back = 9.00. The 2 quid the waiter kept is already included in the 8 pound so it throws you off kilter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
