Ok, so I looked at the brainteaser given out today at work and decided it too math oriented since I've gotten complaints (yeah, you). I thought up my own little brainteaser that isn't based on math at all. I got little to no responses for the Tuesday teaser, and so far only one correct answer for yesterday's teaser (seriously, re-read the trick question). I'm so lenient that I will accept corrections to answers. Look, I'm even giving a bonus question to get more entries.
Prizes. I know this is what you guys care about. I decided on the prize yesterday. You have a choice between prizes. You either get a handknit ladies' hat (I made it last night) or your own Knit Honey yarn. There will be a special surprise included with either prize that I hope you will appreciate.
Today's brainteaser:
What is the next letter in the series, and why: O, T, T, F, F, S, S, E, _? If you can make a good case as to why you think the next letter is what you think it is (even if it disagrees with what I think it is), I will give it to you. This reminds me of when I was a teaching assistant and I used to take people's answers if they could give me a good reason.
Bonus entry:
You have 5 apples in a basket. How do you distribute the apples evenly to 5 children so that one stays in the basket?
Remember, email me the answers.
I will reveal all answers tomorrow along with the winner.
