The two blacksmiths (Posted on 2003-03-17) Difficulty: 3 of 5
There's this town with two blacksmiths - one, a swordsmaker and the other, a shield maker. The swordsmaker's swords can slice through anything as a rule and the other guy's shields cannot be destroyed. Now they get cut up with each other for some reason and pit their wares against each other. What do you expect happens?

spliting the sheild | Comment 29 of 65 |
What if the sword kept cutting the sheild in half? Spliting the sheild doesn't mean that its destroyed and the splitting action can continue on to infinity.
