Lillian gets in the shower, but her long, flowing hair is not wet when she gets out again. How is this possible?
She didn’t turn the water on, she wore a shower cap or it was a baby shower.

Thirty white horses on a red hill,
first champ, then stamp, and then stand still
Your teeth.
A door, a body, and a knot can be this.
Double. Double doors, a stunt double (for an actor) and a double knot. And there’s also the double rainbow :)

When set loose
I fly away,
Never so cursed
As when I go astray.
A fart.
A farmer dies leaving a will dividing his flock of nineteen sheep with the following ratios:
Half to his oldest son, a quarter to the middle son and one fifth to his youngest son.
Without cutting any sheep up, how did the executor of the will fulfill the farmer’s wishes?
The executor went to the neighbouring farm and asked to borrow a sheep for a few minutes. Then he returned to the sons and said, “Half of the (now) twenty sheep is 10. A quarter of the twenty sheep is 5. A fifth of the twenty sheep is 4. 10 + 5 + 4 = 19. Then the executor took the borrowed 20th sheep back to the neighbour.

A man is looking at a picture on the wall and says, “Brothers and sisters I have none, but this man’s father is my father’s son.”
What is their relationship?
The man in the picture is the onlooker’s son. Since he doesn’t have any brothers or sisters, the statement my father’s son can only be himself. A shortened version would be this man’s father is me, making him the father of the man in the picture.

What is black when it’s clean and white when it’s dirty?
A chalkboard (or blackboard). It’s solid black when clean, and as you write on it with white chalk it becomes dirty.

You’ll see me when the sun is high and also late at night,
I’m in the songs of holidays, when the snow is white,
Kings and Queens and royalty, are all found in me,
I’m the largest of them all, with just one you see,
Step by step with pounding feet, I’m tribes of angry men,
I’m above your hands right now, for help or to go again,
You’ll use me in the kitchen, or add a little more,
I’ll be in the years to come, and the days of yore.

Twelve (12).
Noon and midnight are both 12 o’clock and the Twelve Days of Christmas is a popular Christmas carol.
There are twelve face cards in a standard 52-card deck and twelve is the largest number with one syllable.
There are twelve steps in Alcoholics Anonymous, a troy pound is 12 ounces, there were 12 tribes of Israel and a popular movie was called, “Twelve Angry Men” (12 members of the jury). There are twelve function keys on your keyboard. F1 often shows a help screen and F5 reloads pages in your browser.
Many recipes measure items by the dozen, adding one more for a baker’s dozen. There are twelve months in a year.
It’s surprising how many times the number twelve shows up in our culture.

I can ruin a lucky run,
Or create an item of wealth,
But for man, woman or child,
I’ll always steal your health.

Die. The roll of a die can ruin a game of chance. A die (i.e. mold) is used to create new coins and so far at least, we all die.
