Ole and Lena went to a fair. Ole was fascinated by the airplanes and asked a pilot how much a ride would cost.

"$10 for 3 minutes, " replied the pilot.

"That's too much, " said Ole.

The pilot thought for a second and then said, "I'll make you a deal. If you and your wife ride for 3 minutes without uttering a sound, the ride will be free. But if you make a sound, you'll have to pay $10."

Ole and Lena agreed and went for a wild ride. After they landed, the pilot said to Ole, "I want to congratulate you for not making a sound. You are a brave man."

"Maybe so, " said Ole, "but I gotta tell ya, I almost screamed when my wife fell out."

Three friends check into a hotel for the night. The clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance.
They each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room.
A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the men by $5.
He asks the porter to return $5 to the friends.
The porter sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends.
He pockets the leftover $2.
Now, that each of the three has got a dollar back, they each have paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night.
We know the porter pocketed £2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent.
Where did the other dollar go?

GOOD LUCK ALL

Around the corner there is a tree.
Under the tree there is a school.
In the school there is a desk.
Behind the desk there is a bell.
Behind the desk is a teacher.
What is her name?

What is it you have to answer?
But to answer you have to ask?
And to ask you have to speak?
And to speak you have to know,
The answer.

I am an employee of the State of Nevada. I'm also a certified typist, a college student, a blood donor, and a child sponsor. Can you guess my highest point of pride?

I know it's not a riddle, but it's the closest thing. It's a bit of a trick question. It might not be what you think. First person to get it right gets 10 points! Good luck!

If it smells like cat food, you are not my friend.
If the aroma smells of seabreaze and angeldust, I will forgive you.
If there is no odour, you are neither human, nor animal, but are acceptable, and again, I will forgive you.
