"Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood."

Only 1 letter is delivered a day. Mr. Monday receives a letter from Mr. Tuesday on a Wednesday. Mr. Sunday gets a letter from Mr. Thursday on a Friday. Mr. Thursday gets a letter from Mr. Monday on a Monday. Mr. Saturday gets a letter from Mr. Wednesday on a Tuesday. Mr. Wednesday gets a letter from Mr. Friday on a Saturday. Mr Tuesday gets a letter from Mr. Sunday on a Thursday. When does Mr. Friday get a letter from Mr. Saturday?

I found this online....and I have to say I love these kind of things, so please feel free to share your own!  Oh and I will let you know if one of you clever people get this one right   Good luck!

He doesn't, mail isn't delivered on Sundays...and the rest of the week is spoken for.

I hope that's right.

I'm with Zoo on this one, I don't have to think too hard then Sally!

I think Zoo is thinking too hard--but has the Sunday figured out despite that.

Well, Sunday is the obvious day but methinks Zoo is more than likely correct. C'mon Sally, let us know!

Mr. Saturday's letter can't be delivered on Sunday, that's correct, but Mr. Friday still gets a letter which will arrive on Monday. If it takes 2 days to get his letter like it did some of the others then his letter will arrive on Tuesday.

Zoo was right!  No mail on a Sunday!  So now it's his turn to share one with us

Thank goodness there are some intelligent people here . . . I was so befuddled by the time I was through that, coherent thought was suspended until next Thursday . . . or maybe he'll deliver it back on Tuesday . . . or . . .

Or maybe it was just reading "El Cid" that's got me all messed in the head. Stupid eleventh-century poetry!
