In Esrever ni hsilgne tsuj si siht, the words ni, tsuj, and siht all correspond to Hmong words. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 Once again,Marty, spot on. Many people guess 9, forgetting to count turning to the last page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 Yes. (Apart from the twin's birthday one, all these came from the TV quiz show 'The 1% Club" some from the Aussie version, some from the UK version.) What well-known 3-word expression is written in code below? THODEEPUGHT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Well it's DEEP THOUGHT, but that's not a 3 word expression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 And DEEP is imbedded in THOUGHT, so the three word expression is DEEP IN THOUGHT. Which animal is half goat and one third cow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 A bit of an esoteric answer to me, but I guess these question posers like to put tricks into the questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The others are the same in reverse if you move the first letter to the end.

The reason I chose Uneven is it's the only one to start with a vowel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted March 30 Author Share Posted March 30 Decimal point is correct, Marty. On a digital 24-hour clock that displays hours, minutes and seconds, how many times in each 24-hour period do all six digits change simultaneously? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Oh, I missed the bit about it being a 24-hour clock. On a normal clock all digit change when the time flicks over from 11:59:59 to 00:00:00 and again when it goes from 09:59:59 to 10:00:00. That would be 2. For a 24-hour clock you'd have 10:00:00, 20:00:00 and 00:00:00. So 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 Yes, 3 is right. 09:59:59 > 10:00:00 , 19:59:59 > 20:00:00, 23:59:59 > 00:00:00 I'm all out of brain teasers for the present, you'll have to wait till the next 1% Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
