0 Guest Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Jimmy has one eye and thus couldn't see his wife But there is very little point in posting this riddle as there are many, many possible solutions and this then makes it largely a competition to read your mind and figure out the answer you are thinking of.

0 bushindo Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) Jim can see his mother, his sister, and his sister-in-law because... he is in the hospital recovering from a car crash. The night before his wife discovered text messages on his cellphones from 1 of his 12 mistresses. In the resulting tempest, she grab his golf clubs and chased him around the house. He managed to get to his Mercedes, avoiding a narrow club drive that missed his head and smashed the driver window. He stepped on the gas and drove from the garage, but his wife was running right behind the car and smashing the rear mirror with his prized putter. In his flustered state, he turned his head around to see if she was still behind the car. The car slowly veered off the road while he was otherwise occupied, and it slammed into a nearby light pole, knocking him out cold. Of course his wife didn't visit him in the hospital. The sister-in-law is there because she is the one who texted the message that started the whole thing. This riddle has only one answer ,read it again. As other posters have shown, there are multiple solutions to this. The burden of proof is on you to show that there is only 1 answer, and that this 1 true answer deserves special status over all the offered solutions. Good luck.

It's nice to see the 1 true answer. Perhaps I'm just being unimaginative, but I don't see why your explanation is preferable to the ones offered by joey, araver, mitspieler, molly mae, etc. Please enlighten me. What mades this answer more logical/fitting/appropriate than the solutions offered thus far? Edited December 7, 2010 by bushindo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
