Monday Riddle #3


A young man walks through the forest. 
He came to a bridge.
In front of the bridge is a large man carrying an axe.

The large man says, "If you want to cross this bridge, you must tell me a statement. If I think the statement is true, you will be strangled to death. If I say the statement is false, your head will be chopped off."

A few minutes later, the young man walked over the bridge, while the larger man stood pondering.

What was the statement the young man had given?

Solution to Monday Riddle #2:

Fill the 3-cup container with milk and then pour all three cups of milk into the 5-cup container. Fill the 3-cup container with milk again and then use it to fill the 5-cup container the rest of the way. The remainder left in the 3 cup container will equal one cup.

My Dream's Interesting Ideas

I consider myself to be a very deep thinker, and it's dreams like the one I had last night that show just how far that goes...  In the midst of my dream, I encountered a midget who was angry at me for some reason.  And in an effort to distract him, I asked if I could respectfully ask a question: "Do midgets have less pints of blood in their body than non-midgets?"

He got angry that I'd ask such a question, but then he realized he had never considered such an idea.  I then added, "I've often wondered the same thing for people who lose a leg or something - does their body naturally start producing less pints of blood for the rest of their life?"

It was a pretty silly dream, but you have to admit...  That's a pretty darn good question for being asleep.  Any answers or suggestions?
