1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator? 2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator? 3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend except one. Which animal doesn’t attend? 4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles and you don’t have a boat. How can you cross safely?
1. Open the refrigerator, put the giraffe in and close the door. It’s not complicated. 2. Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, then put in the elephant and close the door. 3. The elephant. He’s still in the refrigerator. After all, you just put him there. 4. Jump into the river and swim across. The crocodiles are at the Lion King’s animal meeting. I admit, this is not a typical brain teaser, but it amused me.
I move quickly with hurried steps, If my hand is forced I can sink ships, I’ll cause you to shudder when driving your car, And haul your fuel to where you are, I’ll watch you bleed from a cut, Add a rear and I’ll tell you what’s what.
Scuttle. To scuttle is to scurry or run hurriedly. Scuttling is the deliberate sinking of your own ship. Scuttle shake is felt in convertibles where the passengers feel a distinct shudder. A coal scuttle is a bucket-like container to haul coal. A shaving scuttle holds hot water when you’re shaving. And adding a “rear” forms scuttlebutt, or rumors and gossip.
Wind (or anything blown by the wind). It moves all over, reaches the rich and the poor equally and no one knows exactly which way the next gust of wind will blow. You can’t see the wind, but you can see what it blows, like leaves or dust.
There was a neighborhood of one-story houses. One was red and everything in the house was red. Another was purple and everything in the house was purple. Yet another was yellow and everything in the house was yellow. Still another was blue and everything in the house was blue. In the green house everything was green, and in the gray house everything was grey.
