Here is one more problem for you. Please, be more active!During the lunch hour at school, a group of five boys from Miss Jones home room visited a nearby lunch wagon. One of the five boys took a Mars bar without paying for it. When the boys were questioned by the school principal, they made the following statements in respective order:1. Rex: "Neither Earl nor I did it."2. Jack: "It was Rex or Peter."3. Peter: "Both Rex and Jack are lying."4. Dan: "Peter's statement is not true; one of them is lying and the other is saying the truth."5. Earl: "What Dan said is wrong."When Miss Jones was consulted, she said, "Three of these boys are always truthful, but everything that two of them say will be a lie." Assuming that Miss Jones is right, who took the Mars bar?You will get the right answer in a week, as usual.
Yeah. It's just a logical exercise. I'm new member in the club so I was late with this riddle. But I was very excited by it while reviewing. I like Hardi's thoughts,his imagination was out of logic, but was really interesting. Sometimes in the life, not everything is logical,in such situations maybe the imagination as Hardi's help us find out the way.
By the way, I thought Earl was the accomplice with Peter in bar)).
Thanks Tanya for riddle.
Well yes I was kidding, but if I think about it, then there is a big probability that I had right. That is in case when boys did not had time to eat it and Miss Jones confiscates it. So I can say Miss Jones took it from boys.
Well this Logical Problem is not logical. Because it doesn't show teachers and principals in bad light, which is against my belief and thus not logical. :P
It was Earl. Because, what name is Earl. I'm sure no one have such name now days? And Rex is actually dog's name, so to cover up the fact that he's actually a dog, he lied and gave alibi to Earl, because he was afraid that Earl will testify against him and principal will find out that he's actually A Dog who's wearing the costume of tyrannosaurus Rex.. He would be in a big trouble then isn't?
As for Dan, he's a big lickspittle and thus he probably was actually left behind.. So he did not got even near to lunch wagon, because he was beaten up and all his lunch money was taken by delinquents .
Guys! You are both wrong. And I believe that Hardy is kidding. It was one of the boys who took a bar. It is of no matter who ate it up. They might have done that alltogether! (Smile!)

Who ate it, is still unclear.
