Dear my only son,



Thhaenrge! Tmhoe Bnaecykiyarsd



After he read the note, he finally got a smile on his face. What did his mom tell him in the note?

There is a little town in Mexico called Chamula where shamans started using Coca Cola in their religious rituals to heal worshipers. Pepsi heard about this and began giving commissions to shamans if they recommended Pepsi instead, so then Coca Cola did the same and there are now rival religious groups based on which soft drink they use.

Brain Teaser 3/21/2014

1. Eliminate all the days of the week except for one, and to be forthright about it, this day is NOT the day after Sunday or the day before Wednesday. It can't be that Saturday is tomorrow, nor can it be that Saturday was yesterday. It most certainly couldn't be two days before yesterday, and while we're at it, let's eliminate Thursday. What day is it?



2. Pronounced as one letter, And written with three, Two letters there are, And two only in me. I'm double, I'm single, I'm black blue and gray, I'm read from both ends, And the same either way.

Solution
