riddle, exercise for your brainEach 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 and see if you can figure out the answer together.

This week’s brain teaser:  You walk into a dark room holding a match and find a kerosene lamp, a candle, and a fireplace. Which do you light first?
