Would love to hear your take on this riddle,

In 19th century England, many people rolled their own cigarettes. For those without much money, cigarette butts were collected, the tobacco removed, and new cigarettes were made from that tobacco.
Fact: It takes the tobacco from 5 cigarette butts to make one new cigarette.
Question: If a bum finds 25 cigarette butts on the street, how many cigarettes will he eventually be able to roll?

I'm impressed with your achievements. We were also poor, but I never rolled my own. Wink

*chuckles* That's a very old riddle, I do believe. Hi everyone. Wanting to see how other writers work their magic, I decided to check this place out. Never can get enough exposure regarding the written word. *winks*

my dad used to grow his own tobacco in the garden during the 1940's. after the leaves were picked they would be put into a metal container and the container would be put at the bottom of the gardenmanure pile for "ripening". that's probably why i never smoked. dad's friends thought it was really "choice" tobacco - best turkish blend , hah ! btw i inherited the box and i brought it to canada; serves as a fine toolbox. hbg

From twenty-five butts he can make five cigarettes and from the butts from these he can make (whew, this tastes horrible) one new cigarette.

So he is left with one butt (one man, one butt) and has smoked six roll-ups. Do I win an iron lung?

Ultima! I like that spell!
Alright, I'm new to this place. My favorite forum has been shut down for the week, so I did a search on Google for a new hang out place. I came to this place, I'm shocked, this place seems to be well run and organized. Final Fantasy Tactics is my favorite vidao game ever. I also really like Sonic the Hedgehog; I like him so much, that I'm listening to "Live and Learn" from the Sonic Adventure Two Soundtrack.

Anyways, you should see a lot more of me, hopefully.
I also like to spell and write in perfect grammer.

When I'm bored, I write or read. I like to write some short fiction, and I also like to record rants as well. I gave up video games for lent and Television is so boring now...

Anyways, see ya around...
