Riddle:
There was no mention of it in any of the newspapers, but a queen recently moved to a small farm in the state of Iowa. To assist her, a group of about 20 diligent workers was assigned to help the queen with the farm work which needed to be done, as the queen was not accustomed to performing any type of menial, manual labor. It may seem a bit strange, but in her new home, there were no cows or chickens or farm animals of any kind, and the surrounding soil was very sandy, so no crops could be grown there. This really didn’t matter though, as there was no farm machinery for the workers to use anyway. At the queen’s insistence, those diligent workers spend their days digging tunnels all over the farm; but they are not seeking treasure or anything of value. These tunnels sometimes collapse on the workers, killing a few; but the queen shows little concern and these deaths are never reported to the police or to any law enforcement agency. Who does this queen think she is? She must feel she is above the law and has no respect for the lives of those who serve her! Where is the justice for these workers? Or, perhaps, the queen shouldn’t be held responsible after all. What exactly is going on here?
Answer: The queen was an ant which was purchased and added to an ant farm owned by a child in the state of Iowa. About 20 worker ants were added to the ant farm shortly thereafter.

Riddle:
On a flight from Baltimore to LA the pilot and copilot we're given their food. They both finish their food at the same time. A few minutes after eating the pilot felt ill, vomited, and fell unconscious. The copilot was completely fine. After landing paramedics told the copilot there was poison in the pilot's food. Video surveillance showed a passenger sneaking into the back of the plane and putting poison on the pilot's food. How was the copilot completely fine?
Answer: The passenger thought the pilot and copilot would eat the same meal, so the passenger only poisoned the pilot's meal. On airplanes the pilot and copilot are given different meals. That way if the pilot's food is bad, the copilot can take over and vice versa.
