What State Is Round On One Side
What state is round on one side, high in the middle, and round on the other side?

A Four Word Admonition
What four word admonition makes the happy person sad and the sad person happy?
The phrase, “This too shall pass.” According to Wikipedia, the well-known phrase is often attached to a fable of a great king who is humbled by these words, and to someone who is experiencing something wonderful, it can be saddening. But to one who is in the pits of despair, it is a phrase that brings relief and hope.
In other words, if a happy person is told, “This too shall pass” it will make them sad. But to a person on hard times, hearing, “This too shall pass” will cheer them up.
