Is it even possible? What am I missing, other than the solution?

It can't be that hard. I got it on my third try, and I'm an 8-} . You just have to get the trick to it. ;)

I'm with you Ozzie. I don't freaking get it. Maybe it's because I don't have a college education :?: :?:

Cathy clued me in. Use the right side of your brain and you'll figure it out. My right side was fried on the golf course this morning, so at least I have an excuse :)) :)) :)) :)) :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm not sure I have a right side of my brain. I think I have two left sides. And if I do have a right side I need to save it, I have a tee time in 7 hours.

They key is to get them alternating and to avoid getting two of the same color next to each other until they are in their final position.

The first two moves are brown frog to open rock and green frog over brown frog (you can do it the reverse of that as well). Work from there using the alternating principle. The sixth move is the most difficult and where people probably get hung up.

Ima - you jinxed me! I did it 2nd try the other day and I tried again today after seeing your post and ooooncccck!!!! I failed miserably!!!! I definitely recommend a beer! then it becomes intuitive! Hey does that follow the logic thread test....

If you have gotten thru HS or college, you must be older than a 2nd grader
If you are a 2nd grader than you must be able to do this quiz
If you are thru HS or college, then you must have had a beer
Beer makes you smarter and you must be older than a 2nd grader,
Thus,
If you can't do the quiz, then you must not have had a beer but are older than a 2nd grader
Therefore,
in order to do the quiz, you must be older than HS or College and have a beer or more.... !!!! :-D

I have it down pat now. Can't believe it seemed so hard. Old Left Brain is still in the dark, though. bless his heart. Must admit sometimes it's better to just have the brain of a seven year old. None of his three degrees is any help to him on this one. \:D/
