You're going to tell me that it's the Dannebrog of Denmark which fell from the sky after King Valdemar prayed before a battle in 1219.

Legally the adoption date of the Cross of St George for England happened in Time Immemorial which at law ends on 6th Jul 1189.

I remember this story because I read it in a Scandinavia and the World comic.

Question:
I am in New York City attending a conference when I get a phone call from my friend Lenny The Liar from Liarfield who always lies.
He tells me that his cancer has disappeared and that he's not in the hospital, that he never wants to see me again and especially that he never wants to see me before the end of the week because he's going to live forever.
I ask Lenny for the address to the hospital and he says that it's on Washington Avenue and that he doesn't remember the State Capital that it's in.

To where should I book my plane ticket to see my dying friend? Why?

Did Lenny tell you he always tells lies?

If he did, then he was lying about telling lies which means he tells the truth, so if he tells the truth and said he always lies, then he always lies, but he cant always lie, because he was lying about that, meaning he must be telling the truth.....

No. Lenny is adamant that he always tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

:crazy:

so everything he said is a lie?

If everything Lenny says is a lie, then he is in hospital in a state capital that does not have a street called Washington Avenue. Honolulu?
If on the other hand Lenny tells the truth and Rollo always lies the answer is the same.

Hint:
Not only does the state capital not have a Washington Avenue, it can not legally have a Washington Avenue.
