A fun mind teaser from Dan Miller's 48 Days to the Work You Love book, Pg. 190
Many times in exploring new directions we are limited by our past experience. We tend to see boundaries that may not actually exist. Here are a few MIND TEASERS to help you think in unexpected ways...
1. A bus with 15 passengers crashed and all but 9 people were killed. How many survivors were there?
2. How many animals of each species did Moses take on the Ark?
3. I have 2 coins that total $.35 in value. One is not a quarter. What are the two coins?
4. Mr. Jones was driving along the thruway with his son in the front seat. The road was icy. When Mr. Jones rounded a curve, his car skidded and rammed into a telephone pole. Mr. Jones was unhurt, but the boy broke several ribs. An ambulance took the boy to the nearest hospital. He was wheeled into the emergency operating room. The surgeon took one look at the patient and said, "I can't operate on this boy. He's my son!" How could this be?
