| At noon, you look at the clock in your bedroom. The big hand is on the five and the little hand is in between the 3 and the 4.
What time is it? |

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the rear that are killed. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole because only the fittest survive thus improving the general health and speed of the entire herd.
In much the same way the human brain only operates as quickly as the slowest of it’s brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells, as we all know, and naturally the alcohol attacks the slowest/weakest cells first. So it is as plain as the nose on your face that regular consumption of Guinness will eliminate the weaker, slower brain cells thus leaving the remaining cells the best in the brain. The end result, of course, is a faster more efficient brain. If you doubt this at all, tell me, isn’t it true that we always feel a bit smarter after a few pints? |
A solution to quickly solve the seemingly complicated locker riddle.
Enjoy!
The TED-Ed lesson “Can You Solve the Locker Riddle?” by Lisa Winer gives a quick solution for solving the seemingly complicated riddle. The premise of the riddle is that a person stands to either be the sole inheritor of a large fortune, or to divide the money evenly as one of a hundred people. To claim the money for themselves, they must be the first to come up with the answer.
Your rich, eccentric uncle just passed away, and you and your 99 nasty relatives have been invited to the reading of his will. He wanted to leave all of his money to you, but he knew that if he did, your relatives would pester you forever. Can you solve the riddle he left for you and get the inheritance?
