BosGuy brain teaser

Posted on August 2, 2013 | 13 Comments

riddleEach Friday morning I post a riddle to get you to think outside the box and exercise your brain.

If you are stumped, share it with a friend or colleague to see if you can figure it out together.

I’ll confirm answers later in the day so don’t worry if you don’t see your comment posted right away. I want to be able to give everyone a chance to guess.

This weeks riddle:

Viewed in the mirror or turned on its head
The same old number is what will be read.
When flipped upside down it’s still very plain
The same four digits are what will remain.
Fat in the middle with skinny bookends
Eighteen’s the total, just add to the ends.

    must be 1881, but you can’t tell that from the font i’m using.
