Every member of the Luncheon club is either a truther, who always tells the truth when asked a question, or a liar, who always answers questions with a lie.When I visited the club for the first time, I found its members, all men, seated around a large circular table, having lunch. There was no way to distinguish truthers from liars by appearance and so I asked each man in turn which he was. This proved unenlightening. Each man naturally assured me he was a truther. I tried again, this time asking whether his neighbor on the left was a truther or a liar. To my surprise each told me the man on his left was a liar. Later in the day, back home and typing up my notes on the luncheon, I discovered I had forgotten to record the number of men at the table. I telephoned the club's president. He told me that the number was 37. After hanging up I realized that I could not be sure of this figure because I did not know whether the president was a truther or liar. I then telephoned the club's secretary. "No, no," the secretary said. "Our president, unfortunately, is an unmitigated liar. There were actually 40 men at the table." Which man, if either, should I believe? Suddenly I saw a simple way to resolve the matter. Was it 37 or 40?

Just guessing, It was 37? (The secretary was lying about the president being a liar)

No. You need to provide the reason as well.

There has to be 40. I don't need a reason because I know I'm right.

No simply because I hate you. But seriously if no one can get this I might as well post the answer. But I have more (Hooray!):
2.The Combined Ages of Mary and Ann are 44 years, and Mary is twice as old as Ann was when Mary was half as old as Ann will be when Ann is Three times as old as Mary was when Mary was three times as old as Ann. How old is Mary?
3. There are Seven houses each containing seven cats. Each cat kills seven mice, and each mouse would have eaten seven ears of spelt. Each ear of spelt would have produced seven hekats of grain. What is the total of all these?
4. Find the hidden message in the memo below.
