Few (goes to fewer) It's quite infuriating once you have worked it out, because as graveangel said, it is staring you in the face..

Nice Charles
Next riddleA fellow encountered a bear in a wasteland. There was nobody else there. Both were frightened and ran away. Fellow to the north, bear to the west. Suddenly the fellow stopped, aimed his gun to the south and shot the bear. What colour was the bear? If you don't know, this may help you: if the bear ran 3.14 times faster than the fellow (still westwards), the fellow could have shot straight in front of him, however for the booty he would have to go to the south. Warm regards, Kyle

I would say that the bear was white, a polar bear, because they were at the North Pole

Excellent rowal5555 You got it right
 Ok next Brain Teaser Meeting (meet this challenge) Another hard nut to crack (just like that Einstein's) was published in the QUIZ 11/1986. Eight married couples meet to lend one another some books. Couples have the same surname, employment and car. Each couple has a favourite colour. Furthermore we know the following facts: 1. Daniella Black and her husband work as Shop-Assistants. 2. The book "The Seadog" was brought by a couple who drive a Fiat and love the colour red. 3. Owen and his wife Victoria like the colour brown. 4. Stan Horricks and his wife Hannah like the colour white. 5. Jenny Smith and her husband work as Warehouse Managers and they drive a Wartburg. 6. Monica and her husband Alexander borrowed the book "Grandfather Joseph". 7. Mathew and his wife like the colour pink and brought the book "Mulatka Gabriela". 8. Irene and her husband Oto work as Accountants. 9. The book "We Were Five" was borrowed by a couple driving a Trabant. 10. The Cermaks are both Ticket-Collectors who brought the book "Shed Stoat". 11. Mr and Mrs Kuril are both Doctors who borrowed the book "Slovacko Judge". 12. Paul and his wife like the colour green. 13. Veronica Dvorak and her husband like the colour blue. 14. Rick and his wife brought the book "Slovacko Judge" and they drive a Ziguli. 15. One couple brought the book "Dame Commissar" and borrowed the book "Mulatka Gabriela". 16. The couple who drive a Dacia, love the colour violet. 17. The couple who work as Teachers borrowed the book "Dame Commissar". 18. The couple who work as Agriculturalists drive a Moskvic. 19. Pamela and her husband drive a Renault and brought the book "Grandfather Joseph". 20. Pamela and her husband borrowed the book that Mr and Mrs Zajac brought. 21. Robert and his wife like the colour yellow and borrowed the book "The Modern Comedy". 22. Mr and Mrs Swain work as Shoppers. 23. "The Modern Comedy" was brought by a couple driving a Skoda. Warm regards, Kyle And the person, who get this right, can ask me a riddle, can be whatever you like and as difficult as you like
