Logic Challange
The Riddle
There are 5 houses in five different colours.
In each house lives a person with a different nationality.
These five owners drink a certain type of beverage, eat a different food and keep a certain pet.
No owners have the same pet, eat the same food or drink the same beverage.
The Clues
the Brit eats KFC
the Kiwi drinks DB Export
the Aussie lives in the Grey house
the Red house is on the immediate left of the Brown house
the person who eats Burger King rears birds
the man who eats Burger Fuel lives next to the one who drinks Stella
the man living in the center house drinks VB
the man who eats Burger Fuel lives next to the one who keeps cats
the German lives in the first house
the man who keeps horses lives next to the man who eats McDonalds
the American keeps dogs as pets
the owner who eats Wendys drinks Heineken
the Red house's owner drinks Lion Red
the owner of the Green house eats McDonalds
the German lives next to the Yellow house
The question
Who owns the fish?
Can you find it fast enough?

It took me about an hour and 5 sheets of paper to come up with that answer, so I hope it right.

I could spend all day contributing more to this one... ok, see how you guys do with this rather more quick one:
I have a glass of milk and a glass of water. I take a spoonful of the milk and mix it with the water. I then take a spoonful of the milk/water solution and mix it back in with the milk.
Do I now have more mixed milk in with the water, or more mixed water in with the milk? And if some logic can be applied to answers rather than just guesses it would be nice...

equal amounts. you insert one whole spoonful of milk into the water, then take away half a spoonful of the milk, with half a spoonful of the water, to the milk-glass. ending up with half a spoonful of water in the milk and the same amount of milk in the water.

Yup, and also assume that I mix the mixture thoroughly for a more fair result.

Errr... very possibly...
Still looking for an answer, though, and now the gauntlet is laid down for a female to get it!

well after adding milk to the water you bring some milk back to the milkglass so I would say it would be equal. Cause there aint an entire spoon of Milk/water in either glasses. So then we get to clear if this is a reasonable or a logical reply

Because you give away one spoon of milk, and add it to the water. But then you pretty much take that milk bac, plus some water.
Meaning there's more milk than water.
