Scuba can’t remember where he buried his bone –
Is it under the rock, in the garden, under the porch, or under the tree?
If only one of the following sentences is true, where is Scuba's bone?
1. The bone is under the rock.
2. The bone is in the garden or under the tree.
3. The bone is under the rock or under the porch.
4. The bone is not in the garden.
Answer - The bone is in the garden.
Why?
If sentence #1 is true, then sentence #3 is also true, but only one sentence can be true, so both #1 and #3 are false-the bone is not under the rock or under the porch.
That leaves the garden and the tree, so let's look at sentences #2 and #4. If sentence #2 is true, then sentence #4 is false. That would leave us with just 1 true sentence, but is the bone in the garden or under the tree?
We know that sentence #4 is false, so the bone must be in the garden.
No no no, the bones(not the bone) are in my house.
Mom as usual consulted Dr H L Tan to see if I can be given the green light to chew on bones. Dr Tan said “Ok but must be BIG knuckle bones”
Abracadabra – bones appeared (Yes they are mine all mine)
…… then I heard mom telling Auntie Sam – “Herbie, Tommy, Rafv and Chewie can have them too. Well guess I have to share them with my friends.
My sister, Ginger helped me ‘sneak’ one out. The deal is, she keep a look out so that mom and Auntie S does not know one is missing and in return, she can sleep in my bed.
Yummy, I particularly love the Marrow and the cartilage
Some facts about
Marrow. Believe it or not, the marrow cavity of bone is composed mainly of fat and blood components... high quality nutrients, to be sure, but the minimal reward for scraping out a bit of fatty marrow hardly warrants the status of it being declared a daily requirement for a dog.
Cartilage is 50 percent collagen (a poorly digestible fibrous connective tissue) and mucopolysaccharides which are chains of glucose molecules in combination with mucous...whatever that means
Fantastic and delicious. Ginger can now share my bed. Now I am contented
What a treat after so long
It is pretty tiring chewing the bone. I am going to have a little snooze and hopefully dream of more bones to come.

u look like a contented pig... oops i mean dog.
Cartilage is 50% collagen? Maybe I should save some from my lamb bone for HC since she spent loads of money on some collagen thingy on her face. Lamb marrow definitely cheaper!
I missed my bone.... sob sob
Herbie, your bone is still in my freezer. I will keep it safe for you
Hi Scuba. If I may ask, how old are you and where is your place of birth? Would you happen to know where in Singapore fine dogs like yourself are available for er, purchase?
