A Riddle for Today

Posted in Personal Stuff by John E. Pannell on January 24th, 2008 at 6:01 am

Here’s a riddle, in the form of a limerick, for your pleasure today.

I once knew a gal from Dundee,
Whose age had the last digit three.
The square of the first
Was was her whole age reversed,
So what would the lady’s age be?

This isn’t very hard.  In fact, it’s pretty simple to solve if you read carefully. 

Please give everyone a chance.  If you think you know the answer, please send me an email rather than answering it in the comments.

Thanks, Chris.
