September 12, 200718 yr Gotta love em! I'll start out with some. Try answering and add more if you have any. 1. If you put a small coin into an empty wine bottle and replace the cork, how would you get the coin out of the bottle without taking out the cork or breaking the bottle? 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day. Each of them buys one pair of shoes. Together, they had three pairs. Why? 3. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why? 4. A woman had two sons who were born on the same hour of the same day of the same year. But they were not twins. How could this be so? 5. How could a baby fall out of a twenty-story building onto the ground and live? 6. A police officer saw a truck driver clearly going the wrong way down a one-way street, but did not try to stop him. Why not? 7. Five pieces of coal, a carrot and a scarf are lying on a hill near a remote house. Nobody put them on the lawn but there is a perfectly logical reason why they should be there. What is it? Good luck!
September 12, 200718 yr Not sure if this is the right forum. Forum Games might suit this better. Anyways... [hide] 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day.

September 12, 200718 yr I got most of the answers that were already posted but I think I have the correct answer to #1 and the 2 mothers 2 daughters thing. [hide] Push the cork in =) 1 was the mother of both daughters, and 1 of the daughters was a mom also[/hide]
September 12, 200718 yr That's fun. I only got 2, 5 and 7. For some of the other i had ideas but they didn't sound elegant enough to be the solution. [hide] 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day. Each of them buys one pair of shoes. Together, they had three pairs. Why? grandmother-mother-daughter 5. How could a baby fall out of a twenty-story building onto the ground and live? The baby fell out of a ground floor window 7. Five pieces of coal, a carrot and a scarf are lying on a hill near a remote house. Nobody put them on the lawn but there is a perfectly logical reason why they should be there. What is it? A snowman melted away [/hide]
September 12, 200718 yr Penguina already answered the ones I knew. . . Here's some (these are pretty hard): 1)A man pulled out a gun, pointed it at another man who was known to be totally law-abiding, and pulled the trigger. Click! The gun wasn't loaded. Everyone present, which included at least ten people, was surprised and outraged. Why was the intended victim blamed for the incident? 2)A man called the woman he loved, and she cursed at him and hung up angrily. Why was he happy? 3)Bob, a 15 year old boy with a record of violent crimes, approached a screen porch. Taking out a switchblade, he cut through every screen panel with large diagonal rips. A police officer drove by in a patrol car, saw what the boy was doing, and was pleased. Explain.
September 12, 200718 yr [hide] 1.

A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why?He scared the hiccups out? 4.

September 12, 200718 yr @N0M_ANORs puzzles: 2 Should be correct, i doubt the others are: [hide] 1)A man pulled out a gun, pointed it at another man who was known to be totally law-abiding, and pulled the trigger. Click! The gun wasn't loaded. Everyone present, which included at least ten people, was surprised and outraged. Why was the intended victim blamed for the incident? Might the first "man" be the child of the "victim"? 2)A man called the woman he loved, and she cursed at him and hung up angrily. Why was he happy? The man woke her up. He feared she'd be cheating on him. 3)Bob, a 15 year old boy with a record of violent crimes, approached a screen porch. Taking out a switchblade, he cut through every screen panel with large diagonal rips. A police officer drove by in a patrol car, saw what the boy was doing, and was pleased. Explain. Maybe the officer liked busting the boy. I doubt that's correct though. [/hide]

They're divorced but the guy still loves the girl and he wants to know if she is still ok? lol. 3. Hmm... he was asked to do it by the owners of the house for a reason of which I don't know.[/hide]
September 12, 200718 yr Yeah, I've heard them before. No offense, but those are really old...Either that, or I know a lot of riddles. [hide] 1)A man pulled out a gun, pointed it at another man who was known to be totally law-abiding, and pulled the trigger. Click! The gun wasn't loaded. Everyone present, which included at least ten people, was surprised and outraged. Why was the intended victim blamed for the incident? The second guy sold the first guy the gun? 2)A man called the woman he loved, and she cursed at him and hung up angrily. Why was he happy? Only thing I can think of is what Kelem said. But you said that was wrong...So...Uh...He wanted to make sure it was her phone number? 3)Bob, a 15 year old boy with a record of violent crimes, approached a screen porch. Taking out a switchblade, he cut through every screen panel with large diagonal rips. A police officer drove by in a patrol car, saw what the boy was doing, and was pleased. Explain. I have a feeling the fact that they were diagonal rips is important. But still, I have no idea. Instead of the usual gun, it was only a switchblade?

September 13, 200718 yr Sorry kelem, 0/3 :P . =/ i was so sure about 2. anyway.. another go at 3: [hide]The Officer suspected Bob to be involved in a crime, but the fact that he was where the officer saw him was prove that Bob couldn't have done the crime.[/hide]
September 13, 200718 yr I've heard 3 and 6 before. I answered the others on my own. [hide]1. If you put a small coin into an empty wine bottle and replace the cork, how would you get the coin out of the bottle without taking out the cork or breaking the bottle? Melt the glass? Only answer I can think of. 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day. Each of them buys one pair of shoes. Together, they had three pairs. Why? Grandmother, mother, and daughter. 3. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why? Hiccups. 4. A woman had two sons who were born on the same hour of the same day of the same year. But they were not twins. How could this be so? They were triplets with another sibling. Or quadruplets, etc. 5. How could a baby fall out of a twenty-story building onto the ground and live? No clue. 6. A police officer saw a truck driver clearly going the wrong way down a one-way street, but did not try to stop him. Why not? Truck driver wasn't driving. He was walking. 7. Five pieces of coal, a carrot and a scarf are lying on a hill near a remote house. Nobody put them on the lawn but there is a perfectly logical reason why they should be there. What is it? Frosty the Snowman... [/hide]
September 13, 200718 yr Number 3: [hide]The boy was doing community service?[/hide] That is actually pretty close. No one else has got any yet though.
September 13, 200718 yr Number 3: [hide]The boy was doing community service?[/hide] That is actually pretty close. No one else has got any yet though. Was he helping renovate a home or replace a door?
September 13, 200718 yr 1. If you put a small coin into an empty wine bottle and replace the cork, how would you get the coin out of the bottle without taking out the cork or breaking the bottle? You drill a hole through the cork and pull it out. 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day. Each of them buys one pair of shoes. Together, they had three pairs. Why? Two of them are missing legs. 3. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why? The man is on a diet where he can't drink large amounts of water. 4. A woman had two sons who were born on the same hour of the same day of the same year. But they were not twins. How could this be so? The woman was a time traveler. 5. How could a baby fall out of a twenty-story building onto the ground and live? He was on an alien planet with little gravity. 6. A police officer saw a truck driver clearly going the wrong way down a one-way street, but did not try to stop him. Why not? The police officer was tied to a tree. 7. Five pieces of coal, a carrot and a scarf are lying on a hill near a remote house. Nobody put them on the lawn but there is a perfectly logical reason why they should be there. What is it? They appeared there out of a hole in the space-time continuum. Lol those were too easy. Give us harder ones!
