no one wants to know the riddle answers?
does anybody want to know? i didn't even get any comments or anything. i was at least expecting mister raroo...
anyways, here are the answers.
1) how can you physically stand behind someone as they physically stand behind you? stand back-to-back.
2) which phrase has correct grammar: "the yolk of the egg is white," or "the yolk of the egg are white?" neither. the yolk of the egg is yellow, not white.
3) when can you add two to eleven and get one as the correct answer? when you are looking at a clock.
4) what question can you NEVER answer "yes" to? "are you asleep?"
5) how many times can you subtract the number five from the number twenty-five? only once--if you subtract it a second time, you'll be subtracting from twenty, not twenty-five
6) A wealthy man named Richard Ellis had been counting his money. When he finished, he accidentally left a $100 bill on his desk. But when he returned for it a short while later, it was gone. Only two other persons could have seen the bill. One was the maid; the other was the butler. The maid told him that she had hidden it for safekeeping under a green book that was on the desk. But when they looked the bill was not there. The butler said he had found the bill where the maid had left it. He had placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less chance that somebody would find it. He had written down the page numbers so that he would not forget them. The bill was between pages 35 and 36, he said. But when they looked, there was no money in the book. After Mr. Ellis had talked to the maid and the butler, he called the police. He was sure he knew who had taken the money. Who was it, and how did he know? it was the butler, because pages 35 and 36 in a book are on the same sheet of paper.
7) four men were in a boat. the boat sank to the bottom, along with all the four men, but not a single man got wet! how is this possible? all the men were either married or dating someone, therefore they were not single.
8) how can you rearrange the letters in "new door" to make one word? there is only one correct answer. new door --> "one word." LITERALLY. :)
9) if it takes six men six days to dig six holes, how long does it take for one man to dig half of a hole? you can't dig half of a hole, it would still be a hole. now if you added exact measurements.... ;)
10) here on earth, it is always true that tomorrow will follow today. but there is a place where yesterday follows today. where is this place? this magical place is a dictionary. :)
