Can You Figure These Out?

1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three
rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of
assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't
eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over
5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out
together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when
you throw it away?

4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find
out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think
nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is
unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not
find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try
to do so without any coaching!

If it is the same person that she goes out, he must have been wearing
bulletproof vest, Scuba gears and it didn't mention from where he got
hunged.

A king seeks a brave husband for his daughter.
He says whoever can kill this vicious lion in the first room can have my
gorgous daughter in teh second room.

Few men from various neighboring countries try but all get have their body
parts wasted by the hungry lion and die.

A hamvatan Turk shows up and volunteers .

He goes into the room and after a few hours crying and moaning of the lion
he gets out with a happy smile
and says
"ochey now where iz d Lion'z room ?"

Pretty good! I got 1, 3 and 4 right. (4 is yesterday, today,
tomorrow).
The answer to 2 is that she was a photographer. (He "shots", takes a
photo, then developes it (holds underwater andthen hangs it to dry.)
5, doesn't contain theletter e, which is unusual for such a long
sentence.
