Archive for the “Stories with Holes” Category

Due to popular request (by students), here are some more stories with holes:

  1. There are two plastic jugs filled with water.  How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any dividers, and still tell which water came from which jug?
  2. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?
  3. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?  (or day names in any other language)

If you think you have a solution to any of these, or a question to ask about them, please leave a comment.

AND THIS JUST IN, FROM KEVIN . . .

“A burglar was holding 2 bags of gold from a robbery.  Both bags were so heavy he couldn’t lift them above his waist.  Then, he saw a security camera.  Without dropping either bag, how does he get past the camera?”

HINT:  HE DIDN’T USE A MASK!

AND HERE’S ANOTHER FROM LIZZIE:

“Sally and John were lying on the floor with blood around them.  There was a weapon on the table and a mother was nearby.”
