Everly and I were playing on the merry-go-round at the local park. It was very large and we stood on opposite sides. As we spun the merry-go-round counter-clockwise, I threw a ball to Everly. Did the ball go to Everly, to the right or left of them?
Since the merry-go-round had moved while the ball was traveling to Everly the ball went to the right of them.

What hangs others yet can unintentionally hang itself?
A jury.
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.
What am I?
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.
