Study the five brain teasers. Then, see
if you
can answer without looking at the answers.
Very
interesting! Don't look at answers!
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!

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. Yeah, you should have paid
closer
attention to wording.
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 a
back!
