Here is an oldie but a goody:As I was going to St. Ives
I met a man with seven wives.
Every wife had seven sacks.
Every sack had seven cats.
Every cat had seven kits.
Kits, cats, sacks, wives...how many are going to St. Ives?
what isthe beginning of eternity
the end of time and space
the beginning of the end
and the end of every place?
Remember Canadian writer L.M. Montgomery’s classic Anne of Green Gables? In one of its parts (Rainbow Valley) Susan (Anne’s trusted housekeeper) has this riddle:I have 9 sons and a sister for each of them:
how many children do I have?
