I suppose it says something about me... but below is the message from inside one of the "Christmas Cards" I received:

Your Aunt Stella gave holiday presents to you and your cousins, Frank, Gina, and Harold, to be opened next week at the family party. Everyone knows that Aunt Stella never gives anything but hats, model trains, toy cars, and bicycles.

She secretly told you what she gave to the other three. You know that Frank got a red model train, Gina got a green hat, and Harold got a blue toy car.

Aunt Stella asked the four of you, "Did I give more than two types of presents?" You, of course, answered "Yes!" At the same moment, Harold answered "Yes," while Frank and Gina both said "I don't know."

Next, Aunt Stella said to everyone, "Each toy is either green, blue, or red." Then, she asked Frank, "Do you know if there is a red gift?"

Frank said, "I know there is a green gift and a blue gift, but I don't know if there is a red gift."

Then, Aunt Stella asked Harold, "Do you know what color your toy is?"

"Yes. It's blue!" exclaimed Harold.

What type of toy do you have? What color is it?

I do love the folks who send me cards, at times!
