I got it in 20 minutes. Highlight the blank area at the end of this sentence with your mouse to read the answer: House 4 is Green, owned by the German, drinks coffee, smokes Prince and owns Fish.

it's an assumption that someone keeps fish. it's just as likely that they keep zebras if you want to assume something.

the correct question is "who doesn't keep dogs, birds, or cats?".

WHO KEEPS FISH?

That cat-owner keeps fish in the freezer for use as catfood.

12 minutes.

Process of association and elimination.

The dollar (okay, probably three dollars by now) crossword books also have many of these puzzles in them. They have been around for a long time.

Used to do these ad a kid. It's all about making a grid and using process of elimination. Made one bad assumption but it was an easy recovery. A box with 5 negatives means OOps!

I live in the white house, drink bourbon, smoke Cohibas and have a trained attack dog. None of the other houses matter. Any questions?

Got it in 30 min, but was (pleasantly) distracted the Red Sox losing to the Phillies on a 13th inning homer, so I probably could've done it in 20 min.

How do you solve this one? A man and his wife, together their ages are 98..he is twice the age that she was when he was the age she is today. How old is he and how old is his wife? This problem drove me crazy in a high school logic class many years ago. You are supposed to solve it using reason and logic only. Yep I do know the answer.

He [Einstein] said that 98% of the people in the world cannot solve the quiz.

I wonder if a time limit was a consideration.

I got the essential answer, the German, correct but not in the same house as you did. It is possible to work this as a mirror image and come up with the same correct answer.
