2. If I get a dog, then I will buy dog food.
3. My friend Lisa will come to my party if I serve mushrooms.
4. If I get a dog, then it will not rain.
5. If Lisa comes to my party, then it will rain.
6. If I buy dog food, then I will go bowling.
7. I serve mushrooms at all of my parties.
8. If I bowl a strike, then I will have a party.

2. If I get a dog, then I will buy dog food.
6. If I buy dog food, then I will go bowling.
1. I bowl a strike every time I bowl.
8. If I bowl a strike, then I will have a party.
7. I serve mushrooms at all of my parties.
3. My friend Lisa will come to my party if I serve mushrooms.
5. If Lisa comes to my party, then it will rain.
However:
4. If I get a dog, then it will not rain; a paradox.
