Feel free to answer as many as you'd like.
Its not necessary to do all of them.
Death
1.A man approaches the center of a field with a package. As he gets closer to the center, he realizes he is going to die. The package could save his life, but he is unable to open it. How did he die?
2.A man lies dead on the floor of a room. There is a rock on a table next to him. How did he die?
3.A man is alone in his car with a bullet in his head. There are no weapons of any kind in the car. The bullet was responsible for his death. The windows are rolled up. there are no holes in the windows or in the car. How did he die?
4.A man is asleep on his bed. A murderer walks in with a knife. The knife never makes contact with the sleeping mans body. When the murderer leaves the room, the sleeping man is dead. How did the man die?
5.A man wakes up in the morning in his house. Has breakfast, he reads the news paper. That night, he has dinner, turns off his light and goes to bed. In the morning, he wakes up and reads in the newspaper that a ship crashed. He then drowns himself in the ocean. Why did he kill himself?
6.A man walks into an elevator. As soon as he pushes the button for his floor, he realizes his wife is dead. How does he know she is dead and how did she die?
7.Romeo and Juliet lie dead in their apartment. There is broken glass and a puddle of water on the floor. How did they die?
8.There are two robots. One always lies, the other always tells the truth. You don't know which is which. There are two doors. One door leads to life, the other door leads to death. You don't know which is which. You are allowed to ask one question to one robot (but you don't know which one it will be). What one question can you ask to find out which door leads to life?
does anyone have any idea about this?
[edit] "Who am I?" and "What is it?"
1.My posterior is lined with feathers. I have a very long neck and a pointy noise. What am I?
2.I am taken from a mine, and shut up in a wooden case, from which I am never released, and yet I am used by almost all children. What am I?
3.The Pope has it but he does not use it. Your father has it but your mother uses it. Nuns do not need it. Arnold Schwarzenegger has a big one, Michael J. Fox's is quite small. What is it?
4.There is a place on earth where yesterday comes after today. Where is it?
5.The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it?
6.If you've got it, you can't share it. If you share it, you haven't got it. What is it?
7.Brothers and sisters have I none, but that man's father is my father's son. How is that man related to me?
8.Poke your fingers in my eyes and I will open wide my jaws. Cloth, leather, cardboard or paper, I greedily devour them all. What am I?
9.It's thunder comes before it's lightening. It's lightening comes before it's clouds. It's rain dries everything it touches. What is it?
[edit] The Hobbit
1.This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; Gnaws iron, bites steel; Grinds hard stones to meal; Slays king, ruins town, And beats high mountain down.
2.What has roots as nobody sees; Is taller than trees; Up, up it goes, And yet never grows?
3.No-legs lay on one-leg, two legs sat near on three legs, four legs got some.
4.An eye in a blue face, Saw an eye in a green face. 'That eye is like to this eye' Said the first eye, 'But in low place, Not in high place.'
5.Alive without breath, As cold as death; Never thirsty, ever drinking, All in mail never clinking.
6.It cannot be seen, cannot be felt, Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills, And empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after, Ends life, kills laughter.
7.Thirty white horses on a red hill, First they champ, Then they stamp, Then they stand still.
8.A box without hinges, key or lid, Yet golden treasure inside is hid.
9.Voiceless it cries, Wingless flutters, Toothless bites, Mouthless mutters.
[edit] Others
1.A crazy architect builds his house so all windows are facing south. He looks out a window and sees a bear. What color is it?
2.A woman shoots his wife. She then holds him under water for five minutes and hangs him out to dry. Five minutes later, they go out to dinner. How is this possible?
3.A person has a bee in their hand. What is in their eye?
4.A black dog stands in the middle of an intersection in a town painted black. None of the street lights are working due to a power failure caused by a local storm. A car with two broken headlights drives towards the dog but turns in time to avoid hitting him. How could the driver have seen the dog in time?
5.How do you put two jugs of water into a barrel and still tell which water came from which jug? You can't use dividers of any kind.
6.What is so fragile that when you say its name you break it?
7.There's a six-inch hole in the cement floor of a room. There
