**************************************************
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,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?
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!
DON'T PEEK...............................
ANSWERS:
1. The third. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead.
2. The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband,
developed it and hung it up to dry.
3. Charcoal
4. Sure you can: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow!
5. The letter "e" is missing from the entire paragraph - which is the most
common letter in the English language

Very good. I got the 3rd one wrong.
The fourth one I had an alternative answer. Devil's Night (October 30), Halloween (October 31), All Saint's Day (observed by many Western Churches November 1). How much simpler their answer was.
The fifth one, it took a little bit but I got it. How odd that was.
You might find this interesting. Up in my neck of the woods they are talking about the possability of us seeing some snow flakes on Friday. Nothing that will stick to anything other than possible grass but... And here you are probably not going to be cooler then the 60s for the low. What a thousand miles make. Of course this is early for snow for us but still.
I read the last one like 6 times... lol I couldnt get it figured out in my lil ol head! lol
Doh, six was the stumbling block for me as well, well done
Ok you got me with five. I could find anything wrong lol
Walker, thats cuz you and I are obvious genius's! lol
#5 was the only one that stumped me
That was cool!
