After looking around - there is a good amount of debate about the math behind it all (depending on certain circumstances etc.)

It seems there's a lot of general consensus you should switch, however I found this: http://math.ucsd.edu/~crypto/cgi-bin/Monty...s/monty2?0+3083 -- people who switch lose more than those who don't. However, I'm not exactly sure how accurate those numbers are considering the negatives in there (although I imagine that is due simply to a syntax error in the code and the stats are probably realistic/accurate for those who've taken the test).

All I know is - I'm glad I'm not 14 anymore.

Agreed, math sucks.

Still no one has solved my riddle. Mwhahahaha

I was going to give someone else a go, because I've read this one before. But since you're calling out, Look in the mirror to see what you saw, take the saw to saw the table in half. Put the two halves together, because two halves make a "whole." crawl through the hole and you're out.

My riddle is still up hehe :D

When you guys call out all full of it like you stumped everyone, it just draws me to answer you. The answer is 8. I've never liked that riddle, but I can always give a more in-depth answer if you so desire.

New one:

A mother is 21 years older than her child. In exactly 6 years from now, the mother will be exactly 5 times as old as the child.

Where's the father?

Thank you Kirk for solving it, I was actually a little worried no one would get it :). I don't care if you solve it, it just means more fun for everyone ^_^.

As for YOUR riddle

The answer is with the mother. The math adds up, the child is not born yet ^_^.
