Great Riddles…THE ANSWERS ARE AT THE BOTTOM….RIDDLE #5 IS AMAZING….ENJOY…THIS SHARPENS THE GENES IN YOUR BRAIN ….

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. If you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

First come the blasts: The thunderous sounds of more than 100 tons of explosives ripping through tightly packed soil.

Then, the water — more than 2,500 acres flooded in less than an hour.

This isn’t a scene from a Hollywood blockbuster. It’s the latest step in The Nature Conservancy’s efforts to restore wetlands on its Williamston River Delta Preserve in southern Oregon.

PlusRamsey Family Cleared in JonBenet MurderRamsey Family Cleared in JonBenet MurderThe Associated PressColorado prosecutors say new DNA tests have cleared JonBenet Ramsey’s family in the 1996 killing of the 6-year-old beauty queen. (July 9)It’s been roughly 11-and-a-half years since the murder of JonBenet Ramsey made national headlines. While her murderer has yet to be caught — new DNA evidence has cleared two people of suspicion in the case — her parents.

The evidence does not match anyone in the Ramsey family, or anyone in law-enforcement DNA databases. The new DNA was found with tests on the leggings that went over the child’s panties — The discovery has prompted the Boulder District Attorney’s office to release a letter officially clearing the Ramsey family of any involvement in the 1996 death of the 6-year-old. In it, District Attorney Mary Lacy writes - “to the extent that we may have contributed in any way to the public perception that you might have been involved in this crime, I am deeply sorry.”

The child beauty queen’s body was found in the family’s basement in Boulder the day after Christmas. At the time, a two-page ransom note was also found by JonBenet’s mother … Patsy Ramsey died in June of 2006 after a battle with cancer. ___ ___, The Associated Press.
