My attention will be focused on one of my most popular blogs(The Spiral Staircase:Live Drug Free) for the next few days, but I will also try to post something here, no matter how small it may be. I am leaving my readers and fans a little something to wonder about. Please feel free to leave comments. I will not be giving you a solution to this scenario, but rather I am asking that if you would like to know the answer, please email me with your guess and I will give you the answer. Leaving a comment is fine, but I cannot respond to you without a return email. I will never share your email, promise. This is just for fun.

Imagine you are on a horse....................


You are on a horse, galloping at a constant speed.
On your right side is a sharp drop off,
and on your left side is an elephant
traveling at the same speed as you.
Directly in front of you is a galloping kangaroo
and your horse is unable to overtake it.
Behind you is a lion, running at the same speed as you
and the Kangaroo.

What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?
