BNuge : The answer is halfway. Once the person runs more than halfway INTO a forest, he or she is now running OUT of the forest. Correct?

Yes I do. There are three men with shovels assigned to dig a 10X10 foot hole. One man can dig a hole in 2 hours. The second man can dig that hole in 1 hour and 43 minutes. The third man can dig a hole in 1 hour and 18 minutes. Working together, how long would it take for the men to dig half a hole?

Oh, no guesses yet? I completely forgot about this thread until now. Well, I guess I will give a hint as to the solution.

My first hint is that this is NOT a math problem.

tRIUNE : You are correct, sir. Was it the hint, or did you catch that from reading the initial riddle? Anyway, it is now your turn.

tRIUNE : You have 4 "Fingers" (2+2) and one thumb (5) on your left hand (Hopefully... ). Is that the answer you were looking for?

It looks like this is dead - I thought my riddle would be simple, I posted it as a joke really.

Here's the hint:

It has nothing to do with your left hand, and the answer is the opposite of right.

Wrong. Both the problem and for most people, using the left hand feels wrong.

NotJon : Nope.

Wrong is the correct answer for the most part, but I don't understand your answer lol.

tRIUNE : Then I think the answer is that they are both wrong. 2+2=5 is the 'wrong' answer. You left hand is not your 'right' hand, so it is 'wrong' (play on words). Correct?

I guess I missed the summon here saying I got tRIUNE's correct. Okay, here is my next one.

Two teenage boys decided to make a bet. One of the boys bet the other $50 that he could eat 24 scrambled eggs in less than 30 minutes on an empty stomach. They shook hands and the bet was set. The boy did not eat or drink anything for 2 days to ensure that there was absolutely no food in his system. The next morning, the other provided him with 24 eggs, which he scrambled to ensure that there all 24 eggs were cooked and put on the plate. The boy managed to eat all of the eggs on the plate in 28 minutes, but he still lost the bet. Why?

I didn't want to double post, but nobody seems to have any clue on this riddle, so I'll give a little hint to keep the thread alive.

There is one detail about the bet that makes the task impossible for the boy eating the eggs. Let's see if that helps. I'll put another hint if I get a few guesses that are incorrect.

rcarter2 : Simple. His stomach was empty the day before he ate the eggs, so therefore it took him a day to eat the eggs 'on an empty stomach.' Right?

WarpStarFerret : Sorry, but you are incorrect. You are actually doing the right thing as far as looking for a loophole in the way the bet was worded, but I think you are looking a little too hard for the loophole. The answer is a little bit simpler than that. You did, however, are looking at the right part, which was going to be my next hint. The loophole has to do with the "on an empty stomach" thing. You are getting close.

rcarter2 : Fine. Picky. It's impossible to eat more than one bite of food on an empty stomach, because as soon as you swallow once you have food in your stomach.
