If Train A is travelling at 90MPH and heading West and Train B is travelling at 65MPH and heading East on the same line as Train A, when you consider that both trains will collide in 18 minutes, how many oranges are there in a barrel of grapes?

A short man lives on the 30th floor of an apartment. On sunny days with good weather he takes the elevator 10 floors up and walks up the stairs the rest of the way. On rainy days he just takes the elevator all the way up. Why is that?

Oh that one is easy, the answer is 42 grapes. Cuz think about it. If there were Oranges in a Grape Barrel that automatically makes the Oranges, grapes. Then Train B will not collide in 18 minutes knowing that there is more than one line that connect so Train B can easily go on another line.

Becuase the man likes to go to the roof that happens to be the 41st "floor" Since he goes up 10, that is 40, then he walks up 1 more. on the Rainy he takes all the way since he does like Rain more than Sunny days

Something greater than 299 792 458 metres per second.

I'll answer this Iceman. The answer is half that since dark doesn't travel at the same speed rather half that to near 0.

Since the person asked that question doesn't usually think it is stupid because they need to know that.

Sorry if I had to answer Iceman

Wrong. Short guy can only reach the 10th floor button on his own. On rainy days he can poke the 30 button with his umbrella.

Selphos · « **Reply #19 on:** January 27, 2009, 10:51:05 am »

I believe Ice interpreted your riddle as the man living on the 30th floor then going up to the top, as opposed to being on ground floor and going back up to his floor.

Yeah I did at first then I read Aitaman's answer. His was right, mine could be right on the way if he was actually going up to the roof. Or if the buttons were 'low' enough for the man to get to all of the floors.
But yes, Aitaman on that scenario was right, if it was the scenario I mentioned in my answer then that would be right. How's that for irony.

Ok Iceman, here's an easy one:

2 coins add up to 30 cents and one of them is not i nickel. What are the 2 coins?

Eis Makai · « **Reply #22 on:** January 27, 2009, 12:56:16 pm »

2 half quarters

Selphos · « **Reply #23 on:** January 27, 2009, 01:20:16 pm »

That would equate to 25 cents

so you fail

I lol'd. Don't 2 halves make a whole? And isn't a whole quarter worth...25 cents? >_>

Here's the real answer. The other one is a Nickel and the other is a Quarter.

And Iceman I have a questions.

Is the "ferocity" mentioned in your sig icy as well? You know, cold, cruel, hatred? Or more of a blazing fury? Wouldn't that contradict your persona, though?

Additionally, are you trying to prove something, like that logic is of no consequence?

You illogical flankstay migal basted petard you.
