Here's one...

In a stable there are men and horses. In all, there are 22 heads and 72 feet. How many men and how many horses are in the stable?

No. It's not a trick question. Just mathematical. There can only be one possible answer. But don't worry about it. Go do your homework.

Here's one that's not mathematical...

What 7 letter word becomes longer when the third letter is removed?

Mythus... You're way too good. But I'm determined to find a riddle that you can't solve in 2 minutes.

Very good M J R! You're correct! It's the only number containing all digits 0-9 in alphabetical order! You and Mythus can now move on to the bonus round.

Ok Mythus... if you figure this one out, I give up, and this thread can sink to the bottom of the board.

There is a common English word that is seven letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains a common English word - from seven letters right on down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing a letter at a time?

Good work Mythus & M J R!
(Mythus,I think you had a typo in there, but it looks like you knew what you were doing)


What force and strength cannot get through,
I gently can do.
And many in the street would stand,
were I not at hand.
What am I?

A man goes up to the bar and orders a Pepsi. Another man goes to the bar and orders a Diet Coke. A woman goes up to the bar and orders a Bottled Water. A third man enters the bar with his fiance, and they order a bottle of Red Wine. A fourth man asks the bartender to turn to the football game.

How many beers were ordered?
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
