Time for another riddle: You are a farmer. You have a tame wolf, a chicken, and a bag of feed at one side of your farm. It's starting to rain, so you have to bring them to your barn on the other side of the farm. However, you can only carry two things at a time. If you leave the chicken with the feed, it will eat it. If you leave the chicken with the wolf, the wolf will eat it. What do you do?
Sane answer: Take the chicken across the farm and leave it. Go back, then take the wolf and the feed to the barn.
However, by this time the rain has fallen and your feed is spoiled.
Not so sane (but much quicker) answer: Take the feed halfway across the farm, then turn back and pick up the wolf. Bring them to the barn, reach into the wolf's mouth, and pull the chicken out.
I don't know why I just posted that...kinda bored right now...
Until next time, remember: all great men start out "good".

That works, too. But what I really meant was that you should get everything in the barn before it starts raining.
