The "lift" is not an elevator, but a car pool with a friend?

In the sense that Irish people would "Get a lift with someone"?

No, stupidusername had it, she was a little person and on rainy days had her umbrella.

Maybe people have heard this one but I'll try it anyway.

This is a story about a girl.

While at the funeral of her own mother, she met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing, so much the dream guy that she was searching for that she fell in love with him immediately.


However, she never asked for his name or number and afterward could not find anyone who knew who he was.


A few days later the girl killed her own sister.


Question: Why did she kill her sister?

Question: Why did she kill her sister?

He was her sister's husband and she wanted her out of the way so she could have him.

Though if I were a psychopath I might say she killed her in the hope that seeing as the man showed up for her mother's funeral, he might also show up for her sister's .

So that the mystery man would come to her sisters funeral.....??

Yeah, you're all too clever for me.

However I will try once more:

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, when you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus, an old lady who looks as if she is about to die, an old friend who once saved your life and the perfect partner you have always dreamt of.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car?

The perfect partner on the basis that the friend is clearly a life saver so he/she can save the auld one's life!!! :D:D:p:p:rolleyes:

Having said that, if you left out the "three people" part then one could say that they are all the same person!! Just a though!!!:):):rolleyes::p

Give your friend a loan of your car to drive the old lady to the hospital, catch the bus to 'bangtown' with your perfect partner.

River crossing

I imagine a lot of people have played this but I think of it as a classic.

Circle button to start.

Man, Woman and Policeman can operate the boat.

Man cannot be left with any of the girls.

Woman cannot be left with any of the boys.

The criminal cannot be left with anyone unless policeman is there.

Get them all to the other side.

They haven't paid 9 euro each ya dope,

25/3 = 8.3333 + 1 euro = 9.3333 each x 3 = 28

And the Jipo waiter has the 2 bob

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

The women have paid 9 euro each. Each paid out €10 and got back €1. €10 - €1 = €9.

3 x €9 = €27.

The waiter has €2.

The twist is that the waiters €2 is included in the €27. €25 for the meal and €2 for the waiter.The original question effectively counted the €2 twice. The remaining €3 is the €3 that was refunded.

short

2. From which 7 letter word, if you take out 4 letters, you will have one left?

someone

3. You cannot see him in the same way as you see others. His voice is different from what you hear. He is always with you when you are alone or in a crowd. He listens to each and every word you utter and he is your best friend but speaks to you once in a blue moon? Who's he?

yourself

4. Danny was running really late for something. So he got his father's black Mustang and whooshed away in no time. His lights were not working for some reason, and even the moon was not out. Suddenly a cat was crossing the street and he missed it by a fraction. How did Danny see the animal?

A manager of a factory has 10 conveyor belts churning out chocolate bars. One of the belts is giving out bars 10% heavier than the others, say 110g as opposed to 100g from the other 9. He needs to find out which one and fix the problem. However, he can only use the weighing scales once. How does he do it?

westendgirlie

put the bars onto the scales one at a time. when the scales reads ?10g you know that's the heavier bar

A boy is out with his father and their car crashes. The father is killed and the boy is seriously injured. He's rushed to hospital and prepared for an emergency operation. The surgeon comes out and says "I can't operate on him, he's my son". How?

put a bar from each belt on it all together, then take them off until you're left with the heavier one

Nope, you can only put a weight onto the scales once and take one reading off it.
