1. If you were running a race, and you passed the person in 2nd place, what place would you be in now?

2. A man walks up to you and says - "everything I say to you is a lie." Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

3. A woman has 7 children, half of them are boys. How can this be possible?

4. A farmer and his hired help were carrying grain to the barn. The farmer carried one sack of grain and the hired help carried two sacks. Who carried the heavier load and why?

5. George, Helen, and Steve are drinking coffee. Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda. Using logic, is Elizabeth drinking coffee or soda?

6. I cannot be felt, seen or touched; Yet I can be found in everybody;
My existence is always in debate; Yet I have my own style of music. What Am I?

happy thinking Smile

The answer to riddle 1 is second place. You've only passed the person in second place not the leader.

There's another possible answer to Q. #4 -- the wording says "hired help." Why must we assume there are only two persons, each acrrying a bag, empty or full? Insufficient data for formulating a fool-proof answer.
