IP Logged jon_G Junior Member     Gender: Posts: 90 Re: the camel race   « Reply #4 on: Dec 14th, 2002, 9:38pm » Quote Modify My first thought when I read this was that the wise man told the sons to cross the finish line backwards . I think if the brothers hate each other the one to get thier last after switching camels would just leave. Or if it was a close race then the brother to come in last wouldn't be able to stop or turn so the other brother would win the money. But if the brothers were nice to each other then they would both cross the line or not switch camels cross the line and split the mone50/50or60/40 for the one who came up with the answer.   IP Logged Why climb the corporate latter, when you can own it. mws Guest Re: the camel race   « Reply #5 on: Aug 22nd, 2003, 1:54pm » Quote Modify Remove The old man told them they were riding their brothers camel IP Logged Pages: 1  Reply Notify of replies Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- riddles -----------------------------=> easy   - medium   - hard   - what am i   - what happened   - microsoft   - cs   - putnam exam (pure math)   - suggestions, help, and FAQ   - general problem-solving / chatting / whatever ----------------------------- general -----------------------------  - guestbook   - truth   - complex analysis   - wanted   - psychology   - chinese « Previous topic | Next topic »
