One night, Reyanna-a young and famous singer who recorded her first album just a half a year ago-was invited to perform at a concert. When it was her turn to sing, the audience was extremely excited…but Reyanna never appeared on the stage; she was found in her dressing room, unconscious. Police officers questioned three other singers who had to perform that night. Maria: I'm new to show business, so I came up to Reyanna to ask for some advice, but I didn't hit her! Christina: My cousin is one of Reyanna's biggest fans; she's been listening to her for years! I've even gotten her autograph for her! Erica: I didn't even see Reyanna-I was too nervous to leave my dressing room to go on stage! Who hit Reyanna?

Riddle:
The only thing you can use for this riddle is your brain! Add 1,000 to 40. Now, add 1,000. Then, add 30. Add 1,000 again. Now, add 20. Add 1,000 once more. Now, add 10. What is your answer?
Answer: Is it 5,000? Sorry, but that's wrong! The right answer is 4,100. Four 1,000s do add up to 4,000…but 40 + 30 + 20 + 10 is 100, not 1,000. And 4,000 + 100 is not 5,000; it's 4,100; therefore, the correct answer is 4,100.
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.
