Just for Fun

I am weary of whining, worrying, and wailing...I have grown tired of grumping, griping, and groaning....so how about a little brain play?

























A Brain Teaser: (I'll post the answer tomorrow)

Frankie got a lot of visitors to his house yesterday.

* Frankie's girlfriend arrived before Cheryl and Gloria.
* Cheryl arrived after Frankie's mother, who was the second to arrive.
* Frankie's fraternity brother arrived before Len.
* Rich arrived after Gloria and Frankie's girlfriend.
* Annie arrived before Frankie's sister and Frankie's fraternity brother.
* Frankie's uncle arrived after Rich and before Cheryl.

Put the visitors in order of arrival from first to last, and include each visitor's name and relation to Frankie. Hint: Len and Rich are the only male visitors.

ANSWER

1st = Annie (Frankie's girlfriend)
2nd = Gloria (Frankie's mother)

3rd = Rich (Frankie's fraternity brother)

4th = Len (Frankie's uncle)

5th = Cheryl (Frankie's sister)



* * * * * * * * * * * * *
