Man, I spent hours on this one.  never did solve it.  I built up a database
to hold the known facts I deduced.  Fun but frustrating.

Its not really a joke, but I think some (who haven't seen it before may
find it fun) Got the same answer as a girl I know, so hope, its' correct..
:)
----------------------------------------

There are 5 houses in five different colors. In each house lives a person
with a different nationality. These five owners drink a certain drink,
smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet no owners have the
same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same drink. The
question is --- who owns the fish?

Hints:

- the Brit lives in the red house
- the Swede keeps dogs as pets
- the Dane drinks tea
- the green house is on the left of the white house
- the green house owner drinks coffee
- the person who smokes Pall Mal rears birds
- the owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
- the man living in the house right in the center drinks milk
- the Norwegian lives in the first house
- the man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats
- the man who keeps horses lives next to the one who smokes Dunhill
- the owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer
- the German smokes Prince
- the Norwegian lives next to the blue house
- the man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water


*** Einstein wrote this quiz last century. He said that 98% of the World
could not figure it out. ***
