Riddle of the Week:
Last week’s riddle was: The more of this there is the less you see. What is it?
Answer: Darkness
This week’s riddle:
How would you get down from an elephant?
Brain Teasers:
Last week’s Brain Teaser was:
You are in a room that has three switches and a closed door. The switches control three light bulbs on the other side of the door. Once you open the door, you may never touch the switches again. How can you definitively tell which switch is connected to each of the light bulbs?
Answer: Turn on the first two switches. Leave them on for five minutes. Once five minutes has passed, turn off the second switch, leaving one switch on. Now go through the door. The light that is still on is connected to the first switch. Whichever of the other two is warm to the touch is connected to the second switch. The bulb that is cold is connected to the switch that was never turned on.
This week’s Brain Teaser: I left my campsite and hiked south for 3 miles. Then I turned east and hiked for 3 miles. I then turned north and hiked for 3 miles at which time I came upon a bear inside my tent eating my food! What colour was the bear?
Seanfhocail na tSeachtain:
“Is fear síocháin ná síorchogadh.”
“Peace is better than continuous war.”
On This Day: On this day in 1960 nine soldiers serving with the UN in the Congo were killed in the Niemba ambush. This was a day that stunned Ireland and was followed by their State funerals in Dublin when the bodies were repatriated. The streets of Dublin were thronged as the funeral cortege passed down O’Connel Street.
Tales of Ó Muireartaigh: The commentaries of Michael Ó M are the stuff of legend. “Seán Óg Ó hAilpín, his father is from Fermanagh, his mother from Fiji. Neither a hurling stronghold.”
