Who Has the Fish?

Here is a fun little puzzle for those who enjoy solving puzzles. Supposedly it was created by Einstein and only 2% of the world population can solve it. Not so sure about that, but here it is anyway...

[via http://www.coudal.com/thefish.php]

There are five houses in a row in different colors. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The five owners drink a different drink, smoke a different brand of cigar and keep a different pet, one of which is a Walleye Pike.

The question is-- who owns the fish?

Hints:

1. The Brit lives in the red house.
2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
3. The Dane drinks tea.
4. The green house is on the left of the white house.
5. The green house owner drinks coffee.
6. The person who smokes Pall Malls keeps birds.
7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhills.
8. The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk.
9. The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats.
10. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the one who smokes Dunhills.
12. The owner who smokes Bluemasters drinks beer.
13. The German smokes Princes.
14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
15. The man who smokes Blends has a neighbor who drinks water.

There are no tricks, pure logic will get you the correct answer. And yes, there is enough information to arrive at the one and only correct answer.

Yes, I was able to find the answer. I will reveal it in a few days. Have fun! and don't cheat and look it up on Google or something. It's really not that hard (assuming I am right )

Sling Media : Slingbox - watch your tv from anywhere

August 1, 2005 at 12:43 pm · Filed under Misc

Hey everyone, I've been very very busy lately. New job, new apartment. You've heard it before. Not as much time to blog as I'd like. But I'll try to sneak in a few posts here and there.

This one is about a cool new product I just heard about. Forgot where I got the link; probably from another blog. The concept seems pretty cool. You know how you can record live TV using your DVR box? Well, with the Slingbox, you can broadcast your TV/Cable signal into hyperspace and then download and watch it from anywhere in the world, as long as you have a fast internet connection.

So imagine you are in some 3rd world country and you really need to watch the next espisode of Enterouge. You could be blown to bits at any moment, and you don't want to leave this world w/o finding out what happened in this weeks episode. Just go to the local internet cafe or some hotel with a broadband connection and start watching your TV shows.

At least that's how I think it works. I haven't had a chance to really investigate it and its capabilities. Why not go to the site and read up on it for yourselves:
