Riddle: A woman, who is the executive director of a large and profitable business, has an interesting job description. Among her many duties, she is primarily responsible for the gathering and dispensing of pictures of dead people. In fact, she has a special room within her facility which is specifically designed to hold many thousands of these pictures, and she is assigned the task of securing this room against any and all unscrupulous scoundrels who might try to steal them. Her gang of laborers spend most of the week exchanging these pictures with those who frequent her establishment, sometimes collecting, and sometimes giving these pictures to others at their request. This woman and her employees appear to enjoy their work, as they all carry these pictures of deceased individuals in their purses and wallets outside of work. Is this woman and her gang of laborers morbidly deranged, or are they more normal than they initially appear to be? Just what is this business in which these people are engaged?
Answer: The woman is a bank president, and her gang of laborers are the tellers who work there. The pictures of dead people are the many thousands of bills and coins, each with a picture of a former President or a high ranking official who are now deceased, from our past government.

Riddle: Trapped inside a box-like prison cell, Bonnie and Claude had been placed under lock and key. They had both been there for three weeks. Claude was standing on his head, while Bonnie was lying on her back. Both of them, along with their co-prisoners, were all being observed by numerous passersby who watched them, just as they would animals in a zoo. A man, wearing work gloves and sporting a grizzled mustache, would routinely stop by and forcefully usher new prisoners into the boxy cell. At one point, a short female approached the jail-box and slipped a dollar bill into Bonnie and Claude’s prison. A sudden look of extreme determination crept over the girl’s face as she quickly grabbed a metal object with her bare hand, releasing a monstrous-looking creature which slowly descended from the top of the cell, and began slowly moving toward Claude, who was still standing on his head. Bonnie was not able to scream or alert Claude as to the monster’s approach, and its appendages opened wider and wider, while its claws began to dig into his backside. The girl gasped at the sight, but within twenty seconds she had somehow rescued Claude from the clutches of the monster, and freed him from his prison. Unfortunately, Bonnie was not so lucky. Can you explain these events?
Answer: Bonnie and Claude were stuffed animals who had been placed into a Claw Machine. The little girl placed her dollar into the machine, and was able to get stuffed animal Claude successfully out of the machine by using the claw which came down from the top of the machine.

Riddle: Every day, pilgrims make the journey to the temple of the wooden soldiers. Upon entering the temple, most of the pilgrims seek out a holey orb with which to do battle against soldiers who are dressed in red and white uniforms. Each orb is used to attack small groups of these passive soldiers — soldiers which have the unique ability to replicate themselves whenever their ranks are assaulted by the pilgrims. The mystic orbs, like boomerangs, have the uncanny ability to return to the hand of each pilgrim when cast at the soldiers during these skirmishes. What kind of a temple is this which promotes violence by allowing people to attack innocent soldiers?
Answer: Temples like this are known as Bowling Alleys.

Riddle: Lucille had recently received her real estate license and was out evaluating a bunch of properties in a certain neighborhood. As she traveled around the area, she saw some properties which were very expensive, and others that were more affordable. The area was sprinkled with a mixture of little greenhouses, a couple of hotels, a few businesses, and she noticed there was also some access to railway travel. Some of these properties were for sale but others were not. The bizarre thing is, Lucille ended up in jail three separate times that day and had to be bailed out on each occasion! She received no traffic citations and swears she did absolutely nothing wrong, and yet, she was incarcerated three times that day. What do you suppose happened that caused her to be locked up in jail three times in one day?
Answer: Lucille had indeed recently received her real estate license, however, that really had little to do with the fact she was playing a game of Monopoly with some friends; and unfortunately for her, landed in jail three times during the game, and had to bail herself out so she could continue playing.

Riddle: During the winter of 1959, a young man returned home from work, and presented his new bride with a box -shaped like a part of the human body. He also gave her a newly published book entitled Flowers for Algernon, and humbly apologized to her, stating, "The one store was open, but the other store was not, so this is as close as I could get for your gifts." As he looked into the eyes of his beautiful bride, he spoke these strange, mystical words: "With Abe looking forward, and George looking back, I ask you, on this special day; will you -- -- ---------?" To solve this brainteaser, you must: #1- identify the contents of the box (shaped like a part of the human body) which he gave to his wife; #2- identify the "special day" referred to by the husband, and #3 - reveal the three missing words the husband spoke to his new bride.
Answer: #1- The content of the box, shaped like a part of the human body, was an assortment of chocolates in a heart-shaped container. The book he brought her had “Flowers” in the title, as the floral shop was closed, but the bookstore was still open. #2- the “special day” referred to by the husband is —Valentines Day. The man’s reference to Abe looking forward (Abraham Lincoln’s birthday in February) and George looking back (George Washington’s Birthday in February) indicates the location of Valentine’s Day between the two. #3- the three missing words spoken by the husband to his wife are “Be My Valentine.”

Riddle: Every Thursday morning at 9 a.m. sharp, Miss Alice Gain leaves the comfort of her apartment, and travels about one mile to a place where she does something unpleasant. Upon arriving at her destination, Miss Gain spends between two and three hours looking through two circular windows. As she gazes through these windows, she sometimes sees flashes of white, and sometimes observes streaks of color passing before her eyes. There are several sets of these windows, but Alice usually peers through only two of them. Despite the fact Miss Gain dislikes these visits, she repeats this routine every week; and incredibly, she even has to spend a good amount of money for this activity. Has Alice lost her proverbial marbles, or is there method in her apparent madness? What in the world has Miss Alice Gain been doing?
Answer: From her apartment, Alice travels to a local laundromat to wash her clothing each week. The windows she looks through are the front-loading doors to the washer and dryer, where she usually places her whites into one machine, and her colors into another.
