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.

Riddle: There is a very popular restaurant in the city, called Da Good Burger. It's slogan is strangely called "Served 49 times'. A girl named Sarah coincidentally is the forty-ninth customer in that particular restaurant. When Sarah finally gets her burger, the cashier tells the people behind her that they should go back to their seats so they can make the burgers again. Like any agitated and hungry customer, the rest of them complain, but trundle back to their seats. When the burgers are ready again, Sarah is--you guessed it--the forty-ninth person in line, and she is still always the last person to get her burger while the others behind her get mad. How does she do it?
Answer: The slogan "Served 49 times" literally means that the burgers are served 49 times before they have to cook them again, which takes about thirty minutes, since the food is pre-made. Sarah cleverly learned this trick and skips to the forty-ninth spot. Mostly because she enjoys being the last person to get the burger while the people behind her complain.
