How many animals of each species did Moses take into the Ark?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000
OK, I have another one.
If you have only one match and entered a dark room containing an oil lamp, a newspaper, and some kindling wood, what would you light first?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
1. Moses didn't take any animals into the Ark; it was Noah.
2. The match :-)
-- Patricia (PatriciaS@lasvegas.com), August 22, 2000.
OK smarty pants :-) How about this one?
If you drive a bus with 42 people on board from San Francisco to LA, and drop off 3 people at each of six stops and pick up 4 people at half the stops, when you arrive at LA 10 hours later, whats the drivers name?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
"hmm"Or in Patricia's case, "Patricia."
-- (hmm@hmm.hmm), August 22, 2000.
Alright, you guys are good. How about this one?A farmer had 17 sheep. All but 9 died. How many did he have left?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
The fun didn't last nearly long enough. :(
-- Debra (Thisis@it.com), August 22, 2000.
9.
-- (hmm@hmm.hmm), August 22, 2000.
Here Deb, this one's just for you...
(Please, everybody let Deb answer OK?)
A plane full of English tourists flies from California to New Texas. It crashes in New Mexico. Where should the survivors be buried?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
9 are left.C'mom Nesc, hit us with hard ones!
-- (smarty@wannabe.one), August 22, 2000.
In England!
-- Debra (troll@stole.the.show), August 22, 2000.
Guess again ;-)

OK, smarty@wannabe. I have one more...
Is it illegal to marry your widows sister?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
Not if the dead are allowed to marry.
-- (hmm@hmm.hmm), August 22, 2000.
lol, hmm. Not only are you good; you're quick.
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
survivors should not be buried, it's bad for their health
-- (wake@up.deb), August 22, 2000.
Where is New Texas? Is this what Bush is going to call our country?
-- (dont@like.it), August 22, 2000.
They should bury the survivors from Survivor Island.
-- (hmm@hmm.hmm), August 22, 2000.
Oh damn, Hmm, is this the only thread you're reading today?Hit me with another one Netscape, I got sidetracked reading other threads.
I'll keep reloading this one to catch it before Hmm does :P
-- (smarty@wannabe.one), August 22, 2000.
Don't worry about it Deb. Some people have heard these brainteasers before.
lol! New Texas -- a country with Bushes. Maybe we can call the new country Tumbleweeds.(Just kidding. I have a great amount of respect for the Bushes.)
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
I have to get some work done, smarty@wannabe. I'll be back again another day.
Thanks for playing everybody!
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
c'mon, I'm waiting! Reloaded 15 times already :P
-- (smarty@wannabe.one), August 22, 2000.
Bah! :( I guess I won't be showing my smarts today again :(
-- (smarty@wannabe.one), August 22, 2000.
Now I feel bad, smarty@wannabe. I'll tell you what, how about we meet here again tomorrow morning and we can play word association? I'll throw out a word, and whoever wants to play tells me the first word that comes to mind. Best answers get a cyberdollar. ;-) How's that?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
How's that?Girl.
-- (hmm@hmm.hmm), August 22, 2000.

-- Brian McLaughlin (brianm@ims.com), August 22, 2000.

An oldie but goodie-----A man lives in a house. All four walls of the house face south. A bear walks by the man's house. What color is the bear? Why?
-- Lars (lars@indy.net), August 22, 2000.
It's a white, polar bear at the North Pole. :-)
-- Classic (oldie@but.goodie), August 22, 2000.
Okay, here's one:A man and his son get up early to go on a fishing trip. On their way back, they are in a car accident. An ambulence is called, taking the wounded to a nearby hospital. The first emergency room doctor refuses takes a look at the boy and says, "Call another doctor, I can't operate on him because he is my son!" How could this be?
-- Tarzan the Ape Man (tarzan@swingingthroughthejunglewithouta.net), August 22, 2000.
The doctor is a woman!
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 22, 2000.
I guess I need to finish that: the doctor is his mother :-)

What does it take to be a good Democrat?

Geography riddle:Counting all 50 states, which state is easternmost, westernmost, northernmost, and southernmost.
(The answer may surprise you)
-- Peter Errington (petere@ricochet.net), August 22, 2000.
Off the top of my head:East - Maine West - Hawaii North - Alaska South - Texas
-- Friendly Ghost (he@in'tcasper.com), August 22, 2000.
FG:You got North right
-- Peter Errington (petere@ricochet.net), August 22, 2000.
Hey! That wasn't me. I've been at work all day.First the fun ends too soon, then I miss it altogether. Oh, woe is me.
-- Debra (Thisis@it.com), August 22, 2000.
Was it the "real" Al or the Imposter Al who said that he got ducklings?
-- (kb8um8@yahoo.com), August 22, 2000.
Hawaii is easternmost, westernmost, and southernmost.
-- Tarzan the Ape Man (tarzan@swingingthroughthejunglewithouta.net), August 22, 2000.
Hawaii is southernmost. Either Alaska or Hawaii is westernmost. I think the islands of Alaska make it the winner.Haven't a clue for Eastern if it's not Maine. If Tarzan's reasoning is right, then I'd say Alaska is easternmost. :)
-- Debra (Thisis@it.com), August 22, 2000.
A good Democrat believes Hillary is a lady.
-- seems to me (there should be @n.answer), August 22, 2000.
Tarzan and Debra, you're both winners.Tarzan's reasoning, involving the International Date Line, is entirely correct. Debra, you are right, the Aleutians extend a little further east than the Hawaiian chain.
-- Peter Errington (petere@ricochet.net), August 22, 2000.
Obviously should have said "extend west" i.e. just over the date line.
-- Peter Errington (petere@ricochet.net), August 22, 2000.
High five Tarzan!
-- Debra (Thisis@it.com), August 22, 2000.

Good morning! Is anybody up and ready to play word association with me?
Should I start it with a new thread?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 23, 2000.
A clean thread, please
-- Oxy (Oxsys@aol.com), August 23, 2000.
OK Oxy, I'll start a new one. Are you going to play?
-- (Netsc@pe 6.0), August 23, 2000.
Yeppers. Is that the first word? Play?All you psychologists out there, cover your eyes.
