-=Today's Puzzle:
A total of 21 cards consisting of 4 kings, 4 queens, 4 jacks,
4 tens, 4 nines, and 1 joker were dealt to Alec, Bill and Carl.
Then all jacks, tens, and nines were discarded. At that point:
1) The combined hands consisted of 4 kings, 4 queens and
1 joker.
2) Alec had 2 cards, Bill had 3 cards, and Carl had 4 cards.
3) The man with the most singletons did not have the joker.
4) No man had more than 2 kings.
Who had the joker?*
-=Yesterday's Answer:
How Many Liars? - One. Since the finned Martian did indicate
that he was a truth-teller, then the Martian with feathered
ears was obviously telling the truth and must be a truth
teller. If the finned Martian was lying, then the horned
Martian was a truth-teller. If the finned Martian was a
truth-teller, then the horned Martian was a liar. So, no
matter how you look at it, two of the three Martians were
truth-tellers and one was a liar.
