Take this quiz___Saturday, August 16, 2008
This was found on MINDEF forums (quoted below) and it was pretty famous:
"Below is a quiz written by Einstein last century.
It's been translated and updated since then, but the logic is still the same. He said 98% of the people in the world can't solve the quiz. Are you among the other 2%?"
Facts:
1. There are 5 houses in 5 different colors
2. In each house lives a person with a different nationality.
3. These 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet.
4. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same drink.
Hints:
