Care to join me for a bit?
There are 5 houses in 5 different colors. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage. The question is: Who owns the fish?
Hints:


  • [*]The Brit lives in the red house.
    [*]The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
    [*]The Dane drinks tea.
    [*]The green house is on the left of the white house.
    [*]The green homeowner drinks coffee.
    [*]The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
    [*]The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
    [*]The man living in the center house drinks milk.
    [*]The Norwegian lives in the first house.
    [*]The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats.
    [*]The man who keeps the horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
    [*]The owner who smokes Bluemaster drinks beer.
    [*]The German smokes prince.
    [*]The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
    [*]The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water.
Einstein wrote this riddle early during the 19th century. He said 98% of the world could not solve it. Its not hard, you just need to pay attention and be patient.

The answer:
Einstein didn't live during the early 19th century.
The riddle is therefore rendered null and void.

Ooooh, that's what it is. That did seem a little weird...

Anyone else got anymore?

Also, the word German kept popping into my mind.

No it isn't. 19th century refers to the 1800's. The 1900's is the 20th century.

Early 19th century=1800-1850.
Early 1900's=1900-1950.

I see six pets o_O

Dogs, danes, horses, cats, birds, and fish.

But it rather confused me when it said the danes drink tea...

Maybe the danes would count as dogs and the owners are the ones that drink tea?

I think it means Danish...

I actually remember these types of problems from about 4th or 5th grade. It was like an ABC, crosshatch grid, or some other method.
