brainies

A cowboy rode his horse into town on Sunday. He took a room at the hotel, slept most of the time, and he left two days later on Friday. How is it possible that he could leave two days after Sunday on Friday?















Finding the Answer

If you said it was not possible, you aren't thinking critically. Yes, Friday is six days after Sunday, not two days later. So the cowboy could not have left on the calendar day Friday. However, that didn't stop him from hopping on a horse named Friday and riding off.
