Here are a few trick questions, one awswer per person, for each question:

1. What was the (American) President's name in 1960?

2. If there are 6 apples and you take away 4, how many do you have?

3. Mrs Brown's bungalow is decorated entirely in pink. The carpet, lampshades, ceiling, walls etc are all pink. What colour are her stairs?

Good luck!

Well, Eisenhower was the President in 1960. Kennedy's inauguration was in January, 1961. He was elected in November, 1960.

If you take 4 apples, you have 4 apples.

Don't know if bungalows have stairs? If not, then she has none, so they aren't any color.

With the way your posted the trick question, explain to me the President's name. :) Mr. President is a title (of sorts), not a name.

The only possible trick that I could see was that Kennedy was elected in 1960, so many folks would automatically figure that he was President then, which of course, he was not. Dwight D. Eisenhower was.

The way I put it was unfair to the people answering, thats why they are called trick question. Nothing more, nothing less...
