Three logicians walk into a bar.
The barman asks "does everyone want a drink?"
The first logician says, "I don’t know".
The second logician says, "I don’t know".
The third logician says, "Yes".

I was going to upvote you but then thought, would everyone reading upvote the joke? I think I will hold my upvote until such time I figure it out. 
I am kidding, of course! Good one!
You have just been Sharapova'd.

I woould vote this comment as abuse, but I'm not entirely sure that I can do it without people finding out. Is the anonymity really 100%? 
I am also kidding of course!

Probably most of you cán solve this, despite it is rumoured only 2% can. I once read you should do this without "pencil and paper", so perhaps that's where the 2% comes from.
Anyways first time I saw this I took the pencil and paper and got to work.
It took me about 30-40 minutes to complete. How long did it take you (the first time?)
Einstein's riddle
The situation
There are 5 houses in five different colors.
In each house lives a person with a different nationality.
These five owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet.
No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same beverage.
The question is: Who owns the fish?
Hints
the Brit lives in the red house
the Swede keeps dogs as pets
the Dane drinks tea
the green house is on the left of the white house
the green house's owner drinks coffee
the person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
the owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
the man living in the center house drinks milk
the Norwegian lives in the first house
the man who smokes blends lives next to the one who keeps cats
the man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill
the owner who smokes BlueMaster drinks beer
the German smokes Prince
the Norwegian lives next to the blue house
the man who smokes blend has a neighbor who drinks water

I had a zebra curry a couple of months ago. Very nice it was too.

As long as it took Google to find the answer after I'd registered my disgust at the perpetuation of the myths that
a) this has anything to do with Einstein
b) it's a riddle
c) it's solvable (like my esteemed colleague says - there ain't no fish!!!)
d) only Mensa qualifying IQs can achieve the given answer
e) it contains free advertising for tobacco
Puzzles of this kind predate Einstein's birth (I haven't yet been able to establish whether the great Dudeney has an example but I wouldn't be surprised) and the easiest way to solve them is not purely by logic.

About 30 minutes with pen and paper. Used similar logic as Cheryl's birthday problem.

Is that the "The fact that X is able to make a choice implies that the only possible choice for Y is 'choice a' ?"

No. I am referring to making a grid and omitting or selecting possible options.

Isn't that theology/philosophy rather than logic?
