okay i love riddles and logic, it was so fun to solve this one, give it a try:
a farmer has a fox, a goose, and a bag of corn. he has to cross a river, and get all three things to the other side. there is a single boat that will help him cross the river. but the farmer can only bring one thing over at a time; and if he leaves the fox with the goose, the goose will be eaten. if he leaves the goose with the corn, the goose will eat the corn. how can the farmer get all three things to the other side of the river bank?
good luck, but logic is better.

Hey 1st response guy: If you take the goose first, then you will have to take the corn or fox across next, and either the goose or corn will be eaten when he goes back for the other thing.
Take the goose across first. Then come back and bring the fox over, and bring goose back. Then bring the corn over and come back empty. Next you just need to bring the goose over again. Hope he doesn't get seasick!

Let the goose swim across, take the fox and the corn in the boat.
Or if you really need to take 3 trips across. take the goose first. then take the fox, bring the goose back. take the corn. go back alone for the goose.

Why doesn't he just take the goose first.. Cause the fox won't eat the corn...and then take either or afterwards.
That was kinda common sense..I hope it's harder than this and I'm just not seeing it.... haha

He has a good dinner and forgets about crossing the river.
