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 Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?

5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly 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!

the 2nd one i know.. the rest is on another level ;p

1.The assasins room ...they were all dead (they had shot each other) ?.

2. She took a photo of him then developed/washed the print then hung it up to dry ?.

3. Charcoal ?

4. Christmas eve....Christmas day...Boxing day...?

5. I would have thought that to describe a paragraph as unusual it would have to say
"the following paragraph is unusual" or "the previous paragraph is unusual"
.
How can the first sentence describe it as unusual before the paragraph has been written ?

Therefore it's unusual because it's talking about a paragraph that does'nt yet exist.

Either that or I need another drink !.

EDIT: This is driving me mad !
