    And while I'm here:

    A mother has 7 children, and half of them are boys. How can this be true?

    And yet another:

    Which state has the most water around it? (easy)

    Her older twin brother is a twin, and his birthday is the same as his twin brothers!

    She is their younger sister and her birthday is 2 days before the twins' birthday

    Long Island is not a state...no cheating! :D

    Hint: If L.I. was a state, you'd have the right answer....

    among 7 children one is of 'neutral sex' [neither boy nor girl]. Isn't it?

    "Hawaii" is the correct answer...unfortunately, you are disqualified for not phrasing that answer in the form of a question...:D

    Quick answer only on this very easy one:

    What is the fewest number of syllables to be found in the name of a state?

    ...sorry, no "Boy George" in this family!

    Hint: The answer is more straightforward than most people think.

    And say, what about the twins puzzle you postedo_Oo_O

    One more for today, if I may (and this one is a little different)

    Joe and Fred are going to lunch, and between them they have $27. Joe has 17 times as much as Fred. How much money does each man have?
    Limit: The answer contains NO fractions.

    Does this have a valid solution as stated?:blink:

    The older twin, was born first on March 1st.
    The boat then crossed the International Date line
    and the younger twin, was born on February the 28th.
    In a leap year the younger twin celebrates her birthday
    two days before her older brother.
