No Peaking[sm=whap.gif][sm=idea.gif] Five Brain Teasers
1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three
rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of
assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that
haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?
2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for
over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both
go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this
be?
3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when
you throw it away?
4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words
Monday, Wednesday, or Friday?
5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find
out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think
nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is
unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not
find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.
Try to do so without any coaching!

1. The third. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead. Don't
you feel silly now?
2. The woman is a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband,
developed it, and hung it up to dry.
3. Charcoal. This one it tricky. Only old-timers can remember using coal for heating...
4. Sure you can: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow! Duhh!
5. The letter "e" - the most common letter in the English language -
is missing from the entire paragraph! This one was hard. If you got
this one - give yourself a pat on the back. As Always, ant[sm=meh.gif]
