Nah, that puzzle was actually written wrong so I edited it with a different one .... sorry. Blame it on Satin.

Edit: You are right next to a river and have a 5 gallon container and a 3 gallon container. You need to measure out 1 gallon of water. How do you do it?

Easy, fill the 5 gallon up, then take the 5 gallon jar full of water and fill the 3 gallon one up. Then empty the 3 gallon one out and then take half of the water of the 5 gal container and put it into the 3 gallon container and you'll end up with 1 gallon in each container.

I guess that could work. I had this:

You fill up the 3 gallon container and pour the 3 gallons into the 5 gallon container. You fill the 3 gallon container back up, and pour it into the 5 gallon container. Thus, you will fill up the five gallon container and have 1 gallon left in the three gallon container.

No idea on your answer, sarcasm and all.

You shouldn't do one until you answer the one before it. And I have no idea, though it isn't much of a riddle.

I'm gonna wait for Vid-W's verdict on my answer. If he likes it then someone else can go.

Oh my god this thread makes me laugh, well to get this thread going again heres just a little teaser riddle (I know its not my turn.)

Johnny has a pale that can hold 3 1/4 gallons of water, its filled to the top and Jill comes along and tips the pale, and the water rolls slightly to the left on a windy day, but the wind is blowing hard right, how is this possible...

(I actually have an answer to this one...and I made it up in like a minute!)
Gotta love dem' coasters!
