A RIDDLE
Can you answer this riddle? I put it to a class of twenty teenagers and it took them an hour before they gave up.
There is a donkey in a field on the side of a river. The donkey is hungry because it has eaten all the grass in the field. On the other side of the river is another field. It has lots of fresh, green grass. The poor, hungry donkey wants to get to the other side of the river.
But...
There is no bridge to take him across. There is no boat to carry him across. There are no stepping stones. The river is too deep for him to wade across. The river is too long for him to walk around. He cannot swim. He cannot fly. There is no recourse to spells, potions, gods or other such supernatural forces.
So...
How does the donkey get to the other side?

SKY: Heaven is not on the other side of a river.... its higher than that... and the damn donkey/soul does not have wings... so.... NERRRR!
we are now talking about the donkey's soul. (the real donkey died of starvation.)
i think we should have some semblance of reality, which doesn't always have a happy ending.
Sky - Im using my imagination thats not ridiculous, anyway you made the rest of the riddle up!
and everyone lives happy ever after
AMEN
Nussie --- nerr!
