Two men (Jim and Tim) have not seen each other in many years.
After talking for some time the following dialog occurs:
Jim: Are you married?
Tim: Yes
Jim: Have any kids?
Tim: Yes, three
Jim: How old are they?
Tim: You tell me!
Jim: I can't!
Tim: The product of their ages is 36
Jim: I still can't!
Tim: See the building across the street, count the windows
(Jim counts them)
Jim: There are....
Tim: Right, the sum of their ages is the same number as the number of windows!
Jim: I still can't
Tim: My youngest has red hair
Jim: I know their ages, they are...
Tim: Right you are!
