I count, but never write,
I measure, and divide, and, sir,

In my diurnal round.

1) In a contest, four fruits (an apple, a banana, an orange, and a pear) have been placed in four closed boxes (one fruit per box). People may guess which fruit is in which box. 123 people participate in the contest. When the boxes are opened, it turns out that 43 people have guessed none of the fruits correctly, 39 people have guessed one fruit correctly, and 31 people have guessed two fruits correctly. The Question: How many people have guessed three fruits correctly, and how many people have guessed four fruits correctly?

2) You are in a room that is completly bricked in on all four sides, including the ceiling and floor. You have nothing but a mirror and a wooden table in the room with you. How do you get out?

3) Three lives have I.
Gentle enough to soothe the skin,
Light enough to caress the sky,
Hard enough to crack rocks

4) What can be driven although it doesn't have wheels, sliced but stays whole?

5) Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it, Five in the middle is seen; First of all figures, the first of all letters, Take up their stations between. Join all together, and then you will bring Before you the name of an eminent king.

6) Of no use to one Yet absolute bliss to two. The small boy gets it for nothing. The young man has to lie for it. The old man has to buy it. The baby's right, The lover's privilege, The hypocrite's mask. To the young girl, faith; To the married woman, hope; To the old maid, charity.

1) 5 has guessed 3 and 5 have guessed 4

2) You look in the mirror you see what you saw, you take the saw and you cut the table in half, two halfs make a whole,put the whole against the wall and you climb out the hole.

3) water

4) Golf Ball

1. if you guess three fruits correct, then the forth must be correct also.
and 123-43-39-31 = 10, so 10 folk guessed four fruits.

2. a bit of a trick question this one maypax: You look in the mirror you see what you saw, you take the saw and you cut the table in half, two halfs make a whole, and you climb out the hole.

3. water

4. ?

5. david

6. a kiss
