Riddle: Tristen received a phone call late one evening from his old science teacher, Mr. Riddleopoulous, asking him to come over to his house to see a few things he felt would interest him. Tristen remembered Mr. Riddleopoulous, a man of Greek descent, as being a person who always spoke in riddles, and was always vague when asking questions and giving answers and instructions. Tristen arrived at the Riddleopoulous residence just after 9:30 p.m., and was immediately ushered back to the patio of his teacher’s house. “See if you remember how to use this ‘precision instrument’,”said the teacher to his former student, “and locate the following: a Big kitchen utensil, a Little kitchen utensil, the Roman god of war, the Roman goddess of love, a liquid associated with thermometers, and a Candy Bar.” Remembering how Mr. Riddleopoulous interacted with everyone, Tristen was soon able to find all six of the locations requested ——— Can you? First, to solve this brainteaser, you must identify the “precision instrument” used by Tristen; and Second, you must name at least three of the six locations Mr. Riddleopoulous asked him to find. (Extra credit if you can name all six). Good luck!!!
Answer: Being a science teacher, Mr. Riddleopoulous had a great interest in astronomy. He called Tristen to come to the outside patio of his house after dark so he could challenge his former student to use his powerful telescope(the “precision instrument”) to find the Big Dipper, the Little Dipper(big and little kitchen utensils), the planet Mars(the Roman god of war), the planet Venus(the Roman goddess of love), the planet Mercury(a liquid associated with thermometers), and a Candy Bar(the Milky Way galaxy).
