No they do not. You are too simplistic. Read carefully.

The first one

I'll say the second one then.

Its the first because if the slope gets steeper the longer the faster you go.

Since this thread has been a tad quiet, I'll post a riddle.

A man walks into a bar and asks for a glass of water. The bartender pulls out a shotgun and points it at him. The man says, thank you and leaves. Why?

Kratas · « **Reply #46 on:** January 15, 2008, 05:00:06 PM »

because it was a shot

GrndAdmrlPellaeon · « **Reply #47 on:** January 15, 2008, 05:34:45 PM »

Thats a joke.

Erm...Wrong.

Scarecrow63 · « **Reply #49 on:** January 15, 2008, 06:30:30 PM »

Because he only wanted a glass of water

Enceladus · « **Reply #50 on:** January 16, 2008, 05:44:25 PM »

Wrong....again.

He had the hiccups.

Correct *Suspiciously looks at staff chat*

How would you get exactly 4 gallons of water in a container if you only have a 5 gallon container, a 3 gallon container, and an unlimited supply of water?

*remembers from Die Hard*

Fill the 5-gallon jug, pour three gallons into the 3-gallon jug. Dump out the 3-gallon jug and put the 2 gallons left in the 5-gallon jug into the 3-gallon jug. Fill the 5-gallon jug again. Since there is exactly 2 gallons in the 3-gallon jug, there is one gallon of empty space. Pour 1 gallon from the 5-gallon jug into the 3-gallon jug, leaving you with exactly 4 gallons in the 5-gallon jug

There, bomb diffused

Yay. That makes two of the riddles from Die Hard that have made it into this thread

Pour 1 gallon from the 5-gallon jug into the 3-gallon jug, leaving you with exactly 4 gallons in the 5-gallon jug

Or, you could have done it this way:

Fill the 3 gallon and pour it into the 5 gallon. Refill the 3 gallon and again, pour it into the 5 gallon leaving 1 gallon left in the 3 gallon. Dump out of water in the 5, fill it with the 1 gallon in the 3 gallon jug and then refill the 3 gallon to pour into the 5 gallon which now has 4 gallons.

That's was my solution

Four men were in a boat on the lake. The boat turns over, and all four men sink to the bottom of the lake, yet not a single man got wet! Why?

They were divers wearing drysuits?
