disliker of the mary sue the paragraph has no e's in it. my question: a man goes to a party, drinks some punch and then leaves early. everyone else at the party who drinks the punch dies of poison. why didn't the man die. A few answers came to mind, but I'll go with this: He poisoned the punch after having a drink, and then left.

babycakes69other The only thing I see that is unusual about the paragraph is that it's aligned to right rather than the left side? Also the question is rather, HOW QUICKLY we notice the unusualness. I can't really say how quickly I noticed....um......3 seconds? Maybe? While I wait to be told I'm wrong, here's my question.... A farmer has to get a sack of grain, a chicken and a fox to the other side of a river. There's only enough room in the boat for himself and one of the three things. He can't leave the chicken on the same side as the grain, or the fox on the same side as the chicken. How does he get all three things across? This has got to be wrong, but here goes anyway..... he feeds the grain to the chicken, then the chicken to the fox. Then takes the fox across with him in the boat.

Jenn_antiviolahater The letter u So you're at a crossroad. You know one road leads to the town where people always tell the truth and the other leads to where people always lie. There is a man at the crossroad, but you don't know which town he is in. What should you ask him to figure out which town is which? You ask him. Which way is YOUR town. Cause the liar and truth teller will point to the truth town.

The poison was in the ice so when he drank it the poison hadn't yet affected the punch. As the party went on the ice melt and the poison was released into the punch killing the people that had drank it. Because he left early he didn't drink any of it after the ice had melted.

How does he get all three things across? ok the man took the chicken over first then the fox but returned with the chicken. he then took the grain over to the fox while leaving the chicken on the other side. finally he takes the chicken.

babycakes69other Which came first the chicken or the egg? Quote: thestarthatshines Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2008 11:38 am The chicken I disagree. The egg! Didn't say it had to be a chicken egg. How many other creatures on earth have there been that laid eggs before chickens came along. And even other mammals... considering the female reproductive cells are "eggs"

How many other creatures on earth have there been that laid eggs before chickens came along. And even other mammals... considering the female reproductive cells are "eggs" I agree with that viewpoint, but the answer is "The chicken" because I asked "Which came first? The chicken or the egg?" not "Which came first? The egg or the chicken?"
