Today’s Problem:
A poor but honest knight wishes to marry a beautiful princess, who is also in love with him. The king isn’t as thrilled about it, but offers the knight a choice. He will draw one of two slips of paper from a golden box – one slip says “Marriage” and the other “Death.” The princess knows that both slips actually read “Death” and whispers this to the knight. But the knight is allowed to marry the princess. How?
