Q: Scenario: You have 9 identical looking balls, however one ball is heavier than the others. You have two chances to use a balance. How do you find out which ball is the heaviest?

ok hmmmmmm

i have heard this one before

you put the balls in 3 groups
way two of the groups
if they are even then its one of the last three
choose two balls from that group and weigh them
if its even then you know its the ball you didnt weigh (sp?)

i think thats it?

[Hulud]

heres one

I am not a human, and i am not animal.
I have eyes, yet i cannot see,
and I have hair that you cannot comb.
My brown skin has several layers but this seems a paradox,
because one is smooth and the other is hard.
My skin protects my soft white flesh;
and within my flesh is my opaque blood.

***edit***
i got this one from a book i found on my shelves

Very good.

ANSWER:

Split into groups of three, randomly choose two groups and use balance on them. If one group is heavier, then discard the other 6 balls. If the two groups are the same weight. The heavier ball must be in the group that was not on the scale. Now randomly choose two balls and test on balance. If they are the same weight, the heaviest ball is on one that was not tested. Else the heaviest ball is already known from the balance.

I've got one for you...

Your only clue, think waaaaay outside the box.

A man goes to a seafood restaurant. He looks over the menu and orders the seagull. The seagull comes out freshly cooked and prepared. He takes one bite, turns around, throws up and leaves. He goes home and shoots himself in the head and dies. Why did the man kill himself?

The guy was stranded on an island with two other people. While on the island the men had to survive. The three would starve if they didn't find food. The second guy killed the third guy and, with the guy in this riddle, ate the third guy calling the stew they made "seagull soup". The man liked it and assumed the second guy committed suicide or something. When he came back to civilization, he went into the restaurant ordered his new favorite soup. Upon tasting the difference, he realized that he had eaten his friend on the island. He then went home and killed himself.
