BEST JOKES (PART 20)_SMART SARDAR

SARDAR WITH BRAIN

A Sardar and an American are seated next to each other on a flight from
Los Angeles to New York . The American asks if he would
like to play a fun-game.


The Sardar, tired, just wants to take a nap, so he
politely declines and
rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.


The American persists and explains that the game is easy
and a lot of fun.


He says, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know
the answer, you pay me $5, and vice versa."


Again, the Sardar declines and tries to get some sleep.


The American, now worked up, says, "Okay, if you don't
know the answer, you pay me $5,
and if I don't know the answer, I'll pay you $500."


This gets the sardar's attention and, figuring there
will be no end to this torment,
agrees to the game.


The American asks the first question, "What's the
distance from the earth to the moon?"


The Sardar doesn't say a word, reaches into his wallet,
pulls out a $5 bill and
hands it to the American.


"Okay," says the American, "Your turn."


So the Sardar asks, "What goes up a hill with three legs
and comes down with four legs?"


The American thinks about it. No answer.


Puzzled, he takes out his laptop computer and searches
all his references. No answer!


He taps into the air-phone with his modem and searches
the Internet and the Library of Congress. No answer.


Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all his friends and
co-workers.


Checks the input. All to no avail!


Finally, a long time later, he wakes the Sardar and
hands him $500.


The Sardar thanks him and turns back to get his sleep.


The American, more than a little miffed, stirs the
Sardar and asks,


"Well, what's the answer?"


Without a word, the Sardar reaches into his purse, hands
the American $5,


and goes back to sleep!

SOLUTION 12/06/2011

1--10 equals 3 because it has 3 letters and 12 equals 6 because it has 6 letters and 6=3 because it has 3 letters.

2--The answer is "5". The countersign is always the number of letters of the number that the guard gives. ("six" has 3 letters and "twelve" has 6 letters. After the two soldiers passed, the first spy thought the answer was the half of the number that the guard gave (like what you also might have thought), so he answered 5 when the guard said 10, which was wrong as ten has 3 letters)

3--I am a riddle.

4--There is no water in the glass!

BEST MIND PUZZLES

1--If
12=6
and
6=3
then why doesn't
10=5?
(and what does 10 equal?)


2--Two spies want to get in an enemy's military base.In order to get in they have to give the correct countersign to the guard at the gate after he gives them the sign. So they wait hidden nearby the gate so that they will overhear the countersign from another soldier.

One soldier comes and the guard gives the sign: "6".The soldier answers "3".The guard lets him pass. Another soldier comes.The guard says "12" and the soldier gives the answer "6".The guard lets him pass. So, the first spy goes at the gate and the guard asks says "10".The spy, sure that he knew the answer as he was, says "5". Immediately, the guard shoots him dead.

Then the other spy, who saw that the other spy was killed when he gave the countersign, had now understood what the right answer would be, whatever the guard's sign was.So, he walks to the gate and the guard says "8".The spy gives the correct answer and the guard lets him in. What was the answer that the spy gave?

3--You ponder and think
but try not to sink
you stumble over these words
take a look at it all.

What am I?

4--A 6 foot tall magician holds a water glass above his head, then he drops it but not a drop comes out. How?
