Riddle me this

[robmob]

I got my son a game for his DS where you need to solve brain teasers and riddles to progress.

Any riddles posted before the first one is answered correctly will be deleted.

I found this one interesting.....


I am 22 years old in 2 days.

On new years day last year I was 19.

What day is my birthday?

 

[Rolex]

Well, if today is the 12th, I'd say it's on March 14th. New Year's and 19 are meaningless.

 

[ohmygahitscoby]

March 13 . Your birthday is in two days, today is March 11. I'm so smart.

Edit: Or in Rolex case, the 14. We're in different time zones. And I didn't know Rolex posted that, I guess we posted at the same time.

 

[Rolex]

I caught him copying from my paper.

 

[robmob]

Ummm.

WRONG!

 

[HeartBreak]

January 3rd.

Unless we're talking dog years, then it's another figure altogether.

 

[Cupooterluvr]

Um.... It's over 9000?

 

[nitrogator]

feb 29th leap year?

 

[beason]

[robmob]

Beason got it correct.

 

[Lessen]

[beason]

[robmob]

Here is another one...


Beason and his younger sister were fighting. Their mother was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper in such a way that they couldn't touch each other.

How did she accomplish this?

 

[nitrogator]

unfolded the paper and slid it under a door with beason and 1 side off the door and his sister on the other side

 

[robmob]

Correct.

Another....

There are 10 two-seater cars attached to a Ferris wheel. The Ferris wheel rotates so that a car passes through the exit platform every minute.

The wheel began operation at 10:00 am in the morning and shut down 30 minutes later. What’s the maximum number of people that could have taken a ride during that time period?

 

[beason]

60 if you dont count down time to reload.

edit: that is a REALLY slow ferris wheel.. they only said A car, not the next consecutive car.. not really enough info to determine.

 

[robmob]

60 is wrong.

Keep in mind than then the Ferris wheel closes, it must be completely empty.

 

[beason]

then 40, 20 min of run time, 10 min to clear it out.

 

[robmob]

Not 40 either.

 

[Rolex]

38......
