A Rastafarian MENSA puzzle...
How many joints per day does the singer of this song claim to smoke?

I smoke two joints in the morning, I smoke two joints at night
I smoke two joints in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in time of peace, and two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints, and then I smoke two more."

1. Since there is no answer to this question, I will say.....
Now the valley people cried, "Mount your horses! Draw your swords!"

3. Would you believe, an *infinite* amount of joints?!
The key lies in the last line:

I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints, and then I smoke two more.

Picture the girl on the oatmeal carton, or the cylinder of Morton salt, only she's blazing up. :smoke: If one smokes two joints before s/he smokes two joints, what does s/he do before smoking the first two? Are you with me so far, dude? Dude? Hey, I was saving those banana chips for later! :-)

Now, as to whether the infinite number of joints is aleph-null or one of the higher-order infinities, this is a question that requires further study. You know what to do... :smoke:
