Riddle:
Both happiness and sorrow I bring from ancient taps a plenty. I dull the pain of cuts and life, some drowning in my embrace. What am I?
Answer: Answer: Alcohol
Line-by-line analysis: "Both happiness and sorrow I bring" – This thing causes both joy and sadness — possibly something intoxicating, poetic, or emotional. "From ancient taps a plenty." – "Taps" hints at barrels, kegs, or faucets. "Ancient" suggests it’s been around a long time — maybe alcohol. "I dull the pain of cuts and life," – Suggests a numbing agent, metaphorically or literally. Again, this supports alcohol or possibly water. "Some drowning in my embrace." – A powerful final line — both literally (drowning) and metaphorically (being consumed or overwhelmed). Most fitting answer: Alcohol Brings happiness (celebration) and sorrow (addiction, regret). Comes from "ancient taps" — barrels, kegs, breweries. Dulls pain — physically (as a disinfectant) and emotionally (as a depressant). People can become lost or consumed by it — "drowning" in it. Alternative interpretation: Water Brings life and joy, but also floods and sorrow. Comes from ancient sources — springs, wells, rivers. Cleans wounds, sustains life, but also causes drowning. Has existed since ancient times — crucial to all life. Verdict: Both alcohol and water are strong contenders, but given the emotional duality, taps, and "dulling pain," the riddle most precisely points to: Alcohol

Riddle:
Once every year a farmer walks about on his farm property, picks out his favorite tree, and chops it down with an axe. He then drags the tree home and puts it in a metal bowl. The farmer then spends time lovingly caring for the tree by watering it every day and providing it with the best plant food money can buy to keep it as healthy as possible. Two weeks later he throws the tree outside, sets it on fire, and burns it to a crisp. How can you explain this apparent drastic change in the farmer's mood toward this tree?
Answer: The man owns a Christmas tree farm where he grows thousands of Christmas trees for sale to the public. He is simply performing his annual Christmas ritual of selecting a tree, placing it in a tree stand, keeping it healthy for two weeks, and then disposing of it.
