Thank you kindly, Father Space.

If one died, he would have one left, but could not be Two. In fact, it could be Three. Or Vegas. The names of either would be irrelevant in that case.
No, thats not right at all grasshopper. I understand the guy screwed it up to begin with because he didnt have caps on for one and two. But as it stands right now, if "One" died, "Two" would be left.

Re: [Riddles] One fish Two fish
While it is true that if "One" died, "Two" would be left...but in his post he says that one died, not "One". Therefore, he is, in fact, correct. (Although better grammar would dictate that he use "doesn't have to be Two" instead of "could not be Two")Vegas wrote:FatherSpace wrote:You're wrong.

Re: [Riddles] One fish Two fish
That wouldn't work, because the first letter of the days of the week are capital as well, so you couldn't tell the difference between the name and the day.stealer wrote:He could've just lost 1 cracker and kept the two real goldfish.

haha, too bad for you, it makes the riddle that much harder. I spoiled a joke this week by emailing it instead of saying it. A friend sent me something silly with a play on words, so I replied:
Yeah, but did you hear last week 2 nuts walked into a bar and he one was a salted?
Unfortunately by reading it, you see it was a salted nut, not "Assaulted".
