Quiz answer #6

I think the cure for his wrecked nerves was something like 'take of your shoes and make fists with your toes on the rug'. But I will accept 'curl your toes' as some of you wrote.
The president was Chester A Arthur. It was an intricate part of the third movie as it led Mclain to the school with the big bomb made out of jam?/syrup?.
And there are a couple of different ways to solve the puzzle. e.g.
1: fill the 3g jug
2: pour the 3g into the 5g jug
3: fill the 3g jug again
4: fill up the 5g jug with the water in the 3g jug until it is full (now there is 1g left in the 3g jug)
5: empty the 5g jug
6: pour the 1g into the 5g jug
7: fill the 3g jug and pour that into the 5g jug (which now should contain 4g)

No-one got all the answers (the president was the hard one).
New question tomorrow.
