This popular riddle is a good quick exercise for the brain. It is said to have been invented by Albert Einstein in his childhood. It's also known as the Zebra Puzzle and there are several slightly different variations. Please do not post the answer! If you do, you'll ruin the fun for the others. Just google for it.
