First think of the person who lives in disguise,
Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies.
Next, tell me what’s always the last thing to mend,
The middle of middle and end of the end?
And finally give me the sound often heard
During the search for a hard-to-find word.
Now string them together, and answer me this,
Which creature would you be unwilling to kiss?
In a contest, four fruits (an apple, a banana, an orange, and a pear) have been placed in four closed boxes (one fruit per box). People may guess which fruit is in which box. 123 people participate in the contest. When the boxes are opened, it turns out that 43 people have guessed none of the fruits correctly, 39 people have guessed one fruit correctly, and 31 people have guessed two fruits correctly.
The Question: How many people have guessed three fruits correctly, and how many people have guessed four fruits correctly?
When my first is a task to a young girl of spirit,
And my second confines her to finish the piece,
How hard is her fate! But how great is her merit
If by taking my whole she effects her release! What is it?
There is a story that a man and not a man
Saw and did not see a bird and not a bird
Perched on a branch and not a branch
And hit him and did not hit him with a rock and not a rock. How is that possible?
There is a brick of gold and a brick of iron in a boat (both 10 inch blocks), if they are both dropped into the water which will make the water level higher?
John has three daughters who are all unmarried. The youngest always lies, the oldest always tells the truth, and the one in the middle either tells the truth or lies. A very rich young man comes to John's house and says he wishes to marry one of his daughters. Naturally he wants to marry the oldest or the youngest so he will always know if she is lying or telling the truth. John agrees but says he can only ask one of the girls a yes or no question to decide which one he marries. They all look the same age.
What one question does he ask one of the daughters at random to figure out which daughter is the youngest or oldest?
You should keep me as straight as can be, yet very few do. Most of the time I am slightly bent or curved. Your sadness usually causes me to bend further, but don’t bend me for too long or I may never be able to fully straighten out again. What am I?
Sometimes I shine, sometimes I’m dull, sometimes I am big, and sometimes I am small. I can be pointy, I can be curved, and don’t ask me questions because even though I’m sharp, I’m not smart enough to answer you. What am I?
In 2000, a 40-year-old doctor told his son that when a little boy he decided to be a doctor by seeing a internet web site about performing a heart transplant on a puppy with a dfective heart so that the puppy would live a normal life. I then thought that I would be a doctor so that I could help people in a similar way. What is the defect in this story?

Nope, Maria is right: The word "incorrectly" itself is spelled incorrectly ⇒
I-N-C-O-R-R-E-C-T-L-Y

Well, the answer to the second question is "d". The sound I usually make when I can't find a word is "argh".

All people have guessed correctly, when you get three, it's easy to get four, too.

Neither one because they are both in a boat. Is that right?
“Are you the middle daughter?”
"Are you the oldest daughter?"
And yes, the first one is right.

Ένα μαχαίρι!
In english please.
Yes ma'am!
A knife. *pleasantry*
And the first riddle?
I don't know.. *fool*
It's ok, nevermind...
Why? If he asked that, both of them would say yes.
No, he asked the youngest if she is the oldest. She would lie, so...
Oh, now I get it. That's clever. Way too much
Yeah, it's a nice riddle.
The answer to my latest riddle was "posture".
a knife
Bingo!

(please no cheating)
It's been only 18 years (no internet).
1) Tom and Jerry are twins. This year, Tom celebrates is 15th birthday, but Jerry celebrates his 14th birthday. How is that possible?
2) I'm cool and I've got two faces. What am I?
2) ice?
I suppose Jerry might be born a 31st of December at moment before midnight and Tom a moment after?
Quite a lot of things are cold and two-faced. Let's say Mr Putin, for instance.
February 29th? Or is it midnight? Both are at different ends of the craft at international date line? Jerry had a 1 and 9 months gestation?
If you were born eighty years ago on February 29th would you be only 20 years old?
