Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone. I'll be on vacation so enjoy your New Years Eve parties and I look forward to seeing you next year!
Don't forget to keep track of Santa tonight.
And in case you desperately need a brain teaser to get you through, here's a nice one for Santa.
I'm posting one puzzle, riddle, math, or statistical problem a day. Try to answer each one and post your answers in the comments section. I'll post the answer the next day. Even if you have the same answer as someone else, feel free to put up your answer, too!

Four Brothers Born Together
There are four brothers in this world that were all born together. The first runs and never wearies. The second eats and is never full. The third drinks and is always thirsty. The fourth sings a song that is never good.
Who are they?
Who are they?

I Have a Big Head
I know what my job is,
The point has been made.
You say I have a big head,
And you're right, I'm afraid.
Put me in my place,
And then leave me alone.
What I need most,
Is someone to drive me home.

Four cars come to a four way stop, all coming from a different direction. They can't decide who got there first, so they all go forward at the same time. They do not crash into each other, but all four cars go. How is this possible?
