Fridays Fun Riddle

[barrett7890]

morning folks

Will be out most of the day so TU will be later this afternoon

PM when you have the answer

You are facing three switches downstairs, one of which controls a lightbulb in a room upstairs whose doors are closed (no light escapes from it).
How do you find the correct switch without ever going down the stairs.

Morning All,

The lights are on, I think...

Morning riddlers... am thinking about this one!

[brightspark]

PM now sent, and i have no idea if the light is on or off... or in fact whether anyone is home!

[L107ANGEL]

This just screams "Angel is heading to the ER again" :confused:

No you aren't supposed to put your fingers in the light sockets... although that is a good cryptic clue for Scouser who is currently wondering why I asked where the drill is kept... he is very afraid!

I have a bunch of answers. They might not be right, but I'm a trained professional (electrician) who might look at this from a whole different angle and with a bag of tools that make things easier.

If we just blow up the house, we won't need to know if the light was on or off

Can someone pass me that candle ?

[horsegirl]

Scouse, feeling a little explosive this morning, are we?;)

[MadScouser]

Scouse, feeling a little explosive this morning, are we?;)

Yes. I know what I would like to do with the lighted candle, but probably not allowed too on Health and Safety grounds.

[Momof2princess]

Im in....I think... I hope I have not thought to much about this and made it harder than it is....


Off to get some coffee...lots of coffee:surfweb:

You are exactly who I need then... I am needing to do a light fitting. I asked in the store yesterday how to do it and they took one look at me and said 'you don't - you get an electrician'.

[crcormier]

This just screams "Angel is heading to the ER again" :confused:

And this would be preceeded by the sound BADONKADONK.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

Cut the red wire...no the blue...no definitely the red wire. I'm actually not sure about how your stuff works there. I think your electrons spin the other direction on that side of the ocean.

Larsy is coleading with me today! :teeth: (i'm sure Cam won't mind) ;)
Translation:I'm special, and think rules are for other people. Badonkadonk.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

You are exactly who I need then... I am needing to do a light fitting. I asked in the store yesterday how to do it and they took one look at me and said 'you don't - you get an electrician'.Seriously, though. Is a light fitting a fixture? There are two wires. Here there should be a white and a colored wire other than green. White goes to white and the colored goes to the colored. If you don't kill the power first you have to make sure the colored wire doesn't touch the metal box you're putting the fixture in or it will make a sound we trained professionals refer to as a 'bang'. That's usually accompanied by a nice smoke and light display.

[brightspark]

Oooh pretty fireworks!

It's ok I have a friend coming who will then decide if he can do it, or if I should call a 'sparky'...:goodvibes

PM sent. What was the question again? :rolleyes1

[hiwaygal]

PM sent. What was the question again? :rolleyes1


How many dogs does it take to change a lightbulb?


Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned-out light bulb?

Border Collie: Just one. And I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

Dachshund: I can't reach the stupid lamp!

Toy Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

Rottweiler: Go Ahead! Make me!

Shi-tzu: Puh-leeze, dah-ling. Let the servants. . . .

Lab: Oh, me, me!!! Pleeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Can I?

Malamute: Let the Border collie do it. You can feed me while he's busy.

Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.

Doberman Pinscher: While it's dark, I'm going to sleep on the couch.

Mastiff: Mastiffs are NOT afraid of the dark.

Hound Dog: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb.

Irish Wolfhound: Can somebody else do it? I've got a hangover.

Pointer: I see it, there it is, right there...

Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?

Australian Shepherd: Put all the light bulbs in a little circle...

Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? Light bulb? That thing I just ate was a light bulb?

Ooooh, NOW I read this!

[Mnementh]

I think I may be right on this one, unless Mr. Google mislead me...

It's dead around here.

[brightspark]

Hey everyone, hope you're having a good weekend.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

Hey everyone, hope you're having a good weekend.
I'm doing better than the riddle.

:cool1:These days you have to take what you can get I guess. Tune in Sunday night, same bat channel, and maybe we'll be up to a 3/4 hooty.

I was going to wash my hair but when you mention a 3/4 a hooty.... well lets just say I will make time to be here:rotfl:



OK now I have actually played the riddle, consulted a reliable reference and sent in my PM. A day late and a dollar short. But I am IN.

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

I figured this thread just needed some good clean fun to get it going. I googled good clean fun to get ideas.

http://www.merchster.com/images/Straight%20Outta%20Hardcore%20150.jpg
When I was growing up, good clean fun didn't make you feel uncomfortable.

[L107ANGEL]

I really thought you would have went with BNL :confused3

[Duckfan-in-Chicago]

I really thought you would have went with BNL :confused3
BNL is not a band called good clean fun. If you look up GCF's bio, they're an enigma, btw. They're a hardcore band that doesn't do drugs (including alcohol and tobacco) and practice a vegan lifestyle.

[TwinkieMama]

I am doing some :laundy:

Does that count a good clean fun?

[L107ANGEL]

Points Angel, points! :headache:

[TwinkieMama]

And now a post consisting only of smilies chosen by my 5 year old

:cheer2: :dance3: :laundy: :banana: :hippie: :cloud9: :cutie: :dance3: popcorn:: :dance3:

[L107ANGEL]

Thats a happy 5 year old :thumbsup2

I also did washing today, and then got over excited (following my decorating of the downstairs loo this week) and started washing the walls of our little conservatory on the side of the house... I think I need to see a dr!
