Last Problem:
A hunter spotted a bear due east. Taken by surprise, he ran directly north, and then looked to see that the bear hadn’t moved. As he steadied and took aim at the bear, he aimed directly south. What color is the bear?
Answer:
The man must have shot the bear from the north pole, making it a polar bear, which would be white.
Today’s Problem:
Two boys who were playing in the playground, slipped on some wet grass and landed partly in mud and partly in wet grass. When they got up, one boy’s face was all muddy; the others face was clean. Yet the one with the clean face is the one who went directly to wash his face. Why?
