Riddle: What breaks on water but never on land? Show Answer Hide Answer

Riddle: Charles woke up one morning to find himself trapped inside a prison made of what appeared to be unbreakable glass. Having no memory of how he got there, he looked around and was horrified to see two of his closest friends lying on their sides - dead. The last thing Charles remembered before falling asleep, was seeing both of his pals alive and in good health; but now they were both dead, and he wondered if he soon would be sharing their fate. As the days passed, his captors allowed him to have plenty of water, but allowed him only a few crumbs of food each day. Over time, Charles often heard his jailers talking amongst themselves, stating if he were ever able to escape his cell, he would certainly be dead within a matter of minutes. Who exactly is Charles, and why have his captors never been brought to justice? Show Answer Hide Answer

Riddle: Clayton grew up in a very large, very poor family. With a dozen children(six boys and six girls) to care for, his parents had a hard time providing food and clothing for everyone. Also, as hot water had to first be boiled on the stove to mix with cold water for baths, Clayton and his siblings were lucky to be able to take a bath even one time a month. As he grew older, Clayton was able to obtain a good-paying job, and could afford to move into better housing where he had enough food and clean clothing for himself; but his habit of rarely taking a bath stuck with him. In fact, Clayton now only takes a bath once every two years or so, but no one at his office job(where he has to wear a suit and tie) has ever complained of his having any body odor, or made any negative references concerning his personal hygiene. They say old habits die hard, but this one grew by leaps and bounds!! Refusing to take even a sponge bath, how does Clayton manage to keep his job without offending any of his co-workers?

Riddle: Dorothy and Irene are now model citizens, but in their younger days, when they were in elementary school, they were known as "The Two Lightning Bolts". It was the last day of fourth grade for these two classmates back in 1929, and the two had concocted an evil plot to get back at their fourth-grade teacher, who they did not like. At one point, when the teacher turned his back on them to face the blackboard, Dorothy and Irene each carefully removed loaded guns from their lunch boxes, aimed them at the teacher, and pulled the triggers. Fortunately, they were both poor shots, but they did manage to graze their teacher on his back and head with a few of their repeated shots. As the teacher tried to escape the classroom, he slipped and fell twice on Dorothy and Irene’s loose ammunition, but he managed to make it to the school office to report the shooting attack. However, "The Two Lightning Bolts" received only a two-week suspension, starting at the beginning of the following school year for their premeditated attack on the teacher. I always heard discipline was better and stronger in the past, but these two tried to shoot their teacher with loaded guns, and got off with only a two-week suspension! How can this travesty ok of justice possibly be explained? Show Answer Hide Answer
