Nope

Alright. My turn.
It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

Oh dale, I 100% know the answer.
Not going to spoil it though.

Same here. If nobody gets it in the next 3 posts I reveal it.

Let's have 2 at once.

What happens once in a year, twice in a week, isnt on a clock, and is never in any month.

Nothing.

My math teacher gave me this one:


Black and White Hats
Cannibals ambush a safari in the jungle and capture three men. The cannibals give the men a single chance to escape uneaten.

The captives are lined up in order of height, and are tied to stakes. The man in the rear can see the backs of his two friends, the man in the middle can see the back of the man in front, and the man in front cannot see anyone. The cannibals show the men five hats. Three of the hats are black and two of the hats are white.

Blindfolds are then placed over each man's eyes and a hat is placed on each man's head. The two hats left over are hidden. The blindfolds are then removed and it is said to the men that if one of them can guess what color hat he is wearing they can all leave unharmed.

The man in the rear who can see both of his friends' hats but not his own says, "I don't know". The middle man who can see the hat of the man in front, but not his own says, "I don't know". The front man who cannot see ANYBODY'S hat says "I know!"

How did he know the color of his hat and what color was it?

So, there are two white hats and three black hats.  The man in the back who could see both of the men's hat said "I don't know" and so did the second man.  The man in the front said he knew because if the man in the back said "black" he would have known the man's in the front and the second man's hat was white.
