Please try and work out the puzzle without looking for the solution on the net. I see this was directed at me. So I solemnly swear that if I have to look up the answer on the net, I will not post. There is a clerk at the butcher shop, he is Five Feet ten inches, and he wears size 13 sneakers. He has a wife and 2 kids. What does he weigh? -------------------- |

You've won an all expense paid vacation to Australia, but seeing as how you're already there, the prize will go to the next winner.
