I think I have the answer for #4......

Yesterday..... Today.... and Tomorrow

Now I have two theories for #1......

First, I guess it wouldn't matter which room he goes in if he is sentenced to death anyway. However, if he goes in the room with the "Dead" lions than I suppose he will get to live. LOL!!! If a lion doesn't eat for 3 years, how would they survive

[dwteammember]

1. The third room. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead. That
> one was easy, right?
>
> 2. The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband,
> developed it, and hung it up to dry (shot; held under water; and hung).
>
> 3. Charcoal, as it is used in barbecuing.
>
> 4. Sure you can name three consecutive days, yesterday, today, and
> tomorrow!
>
>
>
> 5. The letter e, which is the most common letter used in the English
> language, does not appear even once in the paragraph.
>
> how did you do?

Hey DW if you were working on the camper, you wouldn't have had time to use the internet to find the answers. Here's one I don't think is on the internet.....

A successful businessman lives on the 49th floor of a highrise apartment. He gets up in the morning goes to the elevator. Presses the bottom floor and goes to work. When he returns he goes to the elevator, presses the 22nd floor, exits and walks up the remaining flights of stairs to his apartment. He does this on a regular basis unless the weather man forecasts rain. On these days, he gets up, goes to the elevator, presses the bottom floor, and goes to work. Upon returning from work, he goes to the elevator and takes it all the way up to the 49th floor thus avoiding the arduous stairs. How and why does he do this??

one other one.....What do you call two guys with no arms and legs that hang around a window??

OK One more....What's the definition of endless love??

Gotta go for training!

Good Luck All!!!!!!

[Datwater]

CRAP, one more.....

What do you call two gay Irish men??

[beanebeano]

Hey! I'm Irish. Not gay, though. SO....I guess it's ok. Here goes. Gerald Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzgerald.

[beanebeano]

The second one is Curt and Rod.

[GMPRGJean]

I don't really know the answer Dave but.....


I REALLY LOVE YOUR NEW TINKER BELL PICTURE and I honestly did not do it

[dwteammember]

it does send a powerful message. I just havent figured out if that would make Dave Peter Pan and if it does, I vote against the tights.

[ericm.]

good riddles, the Tinkerbell thing makes me uneasy. Like clowns, man I hate clowns

[beanebeano]

Clowns are definitely creepy and so are dolls with realistic eyes.

[Datwater]

Okay the answers....
1) The man is a midget (I know not PC, but accurate). He cannot reack the upper floors, but when it's raining, he has an umbrella and uses it to hit his floor.

2) Yes, you got it....Kurt and Rod

3) Helen Keller and Ray Charles playing tennis

4) It is Patrick Fitzgerald and Gerald Fitzpatrick

[Datwater]

Just some food for thought.....

A man lost both ears in an accident. No plastic surgeon could offer him a solution. He heard of a very good one in Sweden, and went to him.

The new surgeon examined him, thought a while, and said, "Yes, I can put you right."

After the operation, bandages off, stitches out, he goes to his hotel. The morning after, in a rage, he calls his surgeon, and yells, "You swine, you gave me a woman's ears!"

"Well, an ear is an ear. It makes no difference whether it is a man's or a woman's."

"You're wrong! I hear everything, but I don't understand a thing!" screamed the man.

I think you may be picking up I'n not too politically correct!!

[Datwater]

This is JUST for laughs. Nothing political here. If your easily offended, please read on...This actually made NBC NIghtly News. It just shows how bad the economy has gotten and that no-ones job is safe.

Fired




It has just been reported that the head gardener at The White House has been dismissed after 28 years of loyal service to many US presidents.



When interviewed the gardener protested his innocence and said, "All I did was ask the Secret Service if anyone had seen the spade and the hoe?

[beanebeano]

Ouch!
