How many flowers do I have if all of them are roses except two, all of them are tulips except two, and all of them are daisies except two?
hint: there are two answers
EDIT: and give an example of the solution like "x of flower 1, y of flower 2, z of flower 3, etc..."

I added an addendum, you must name the flowers
I guess that works. . .but so does 'All of them.'

@crackedcrystal: how about this? none of them are roses, tulips, or daisies. Both of them are some other flower.

Here is another one that will probably take a lot of thinking and typing for an answer:
Three humans, one Giant Radioactive Monkey props to the OT forum and two small monkeys are to cross a river:
a) Only humans and the Giant Radioactive Monkey can row the boat.
b) At all times, the number of human on either side of the river must be GREATER OR EQUAL to the number of monkeys on THAT side. ( Or else the humans will be eaten by the monkeys!)
c) The boat only has room for 2 (monkeys or humans)

both answers down, you're on a roll.here is another for the people afraid of Monkeys
Two people are talking long distance on the phone; one is in an East- Coast state of the US, the other is in a West-Coast state of the US. The first asks the other "What time is it?", hears the answer, and says, "That's funny. It's the same time here!" How is this possible?
hint: there is no play on words in this one. It is actually possible for it to be the same time at both locations (ie. both clocks show the same numbers (8:00, 10:30, etc...) and are showing the proper time for their respective time zones
EDIT: Changed the hint to be more specific.
Time to get off the phone? Bed Time? Nap time? (Two of my very favorite times!)

nope, their clocks both have the same time showing, and the clocks are showing the proper time for their respective time zones.
Hmm. . . well, I don't know about east coast-west coast, but it is possible for it to be the same time in both time zones. It would have to be when you 'fall back' during the winter months, the hour difference wouldn't apply, since the eastern time zone already hit it, and the central time zone didn't.

Daylight savings time in eastern oregon (mountain time) and western florida (central time). That would end up being the same time.
They wouldn't be in Florida, would they? It has both an east coast and a west coast. . .

Incorrect, on your 3rd step, there would be one human and two monkeys across the river. Like this...
(H = humna, M = giant monkey, m = small monkey)
HHm <-----> HMm
EDIT: in case it was not clear, the radioactive monkey counts towards the monkey total.
