Here is the problem invented by Albert Einstein: 5 men of different nationalities live in 5 different houses in 5 different colors. They smoke 5 different brands of cigarettes and drink 5 different beverages. They raise 5 different species of animals. The question that you must answer is: 'Who raises fish?'
Here are the 15 hints given:
The Norwegian lives in the first house
The Englishman lives in the red house
The green house is located to the left of the white house
The Danish man drinks tea
The man who smokes Rothmans lives next to the man who raises cats
The man who lives in the yellow house smokes Dunhills
The German smokes Marlboros
The man who lives in the middle house drinks milk
The man who smokes Rothmans has a neighbor who drinks water
The man who smokes Pall Malls raises birds
The Swede raises dogs
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
The man who raises horses lives next to the yellow house
The man who smokes Philip Morris cigarettes drinks beer
Coffee is drunk in the green house
PM me the answer you get when youre done biggrin Ill PM you back to tell you if you are RIGHT or WRONG. If you got it right, dont tell anyone D: it just ruins it. Anyway, if you got it right after working out, your part of the top 2% of the world population that could figure it out.
PS. I didnt work it out xD i got it wrong O_O
People who got it right
arrow Shinyi
and err...thats about it at the moment x_X

Waitwaiiit... I worked out the houses on paper and it doesn't make sense. If Norwegian is 1st, and blue is next to it, that means its the 2nd house. Anf then, there's a red house, yellow house, blue house, and green house. That's 6 houses altogether!
So.. does that mean that the green house is actually one of those plant houses?
EDITEDIT. I figured out how to use this fact... >D

Although, I my birthday passed about half a month ago, so I might be the same age as you. Unless you mean you're 8 years old. Then, I'd be older than you. xB.
