  1. lady red, I saw a good one on a list of Google interview questions:

    Assume there is a country where boys are preferred. Every family keeps having children until they have a boy - once they get a boy, they stop.

    (Further assume women are infinitely fertile and can have an unbounded number of children in a finite time. (Obviously a man came up with this question.))

    Question: what is the ratio of girls to boys?
