Dog

[Lickey]

Question,

How far can a dog run into the woods?

Answer, Halfway,

But do you know why??

[lannarebirth]

Well. if he ran more than halfway he'd be running out of the woods wouldn't he?

[suegha]

Is this some sort of 'difficult' puzzle? Coz the obvious answer (as stated by lannarebirth) is just too obvious!

[Lickey]

LB is right, easy with the answer i suppose, try this one,

'Lanuage' must be the answer!

Cos there's one pound more in 1997 than 1996!

There's no dirt in any hole - it's a hole!

Any more?

Twenty years ago, a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany. If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the engine fails before he has time and the plane crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors - East Germany or West Germany or in "no man's land"?

[Lickey]

Dont think the survivors would like to be buried anywhere just yet

Each sack had 7 cats

In the religious heartlands of India, you cannot take a picture of a man with a wooden leg, why not?

[draggons]

Need a camera to take a picture not a wooden leg.

Next.

[suegha]

Some of these are lame, but they gave me a laugh!

[pete_r]

How about this one: In a race you are in 3rd position, and you overtake the guy in 2nd position. In which position are you now?

[Lickey]

To take over 2nd position would put you in second position!

I saw in the Bangkok Post a few days ago that an archaeologist claimed to have found coins dated 107BC, what are you thoughts on this one?

[draggons]

Coins wern't generaly dated untill the 16th century.

[baabaabobo]

They couldn't be dated BC anyway as no-one knew it was "Before Christ"

[Lickey]

Baabaabobo is right of course, how could anybody know about BC before the event!!

A man is building a brick house, 50ft by20ft wide by 10ft tall, each brick is 1 ft long, how many bricks does he need to complete the house?

Not enough info to do this one! Bricks are 1 ft long, assuming they are 1 ft wide as well as tall, ie a 1 foot cube, the answer would be 1360 bricks. But this seems too easy!

ps Also, does the house have no windows and doors?

[wpcoe]

A man is building a brick house, 50ft by20ft wide by 10ft tall, each brick is 1 ft long, how many bricks does he need to complete the house?

Only one ... the final one? Only the last one completes the house, right?

Oh Yeah, well how many roofing tiles?

[wpcoe]

Oh Yeah, well how many roofing tiles?

None, if you use thatch.

[Lickey]

Spot on Wpcoe, just the last brick will complete the house whatever the size of brick ect,

Kojac is right,

Two planes leave Chicago and New York at the same time,Assume a 1000 mile distance,The eastbound plane travels at 240 MPH but due to head winds the west bound plane can only make 80 MPH, when they meet, which is nearest to Chicago?

Lots of info here, but can you suss it?

[wpcoe]

At the time they meet, they are both the same distance from Chicago.

[Crossy]

At the time they meet, they are both the same distance from Chicago.

Or the bits resulting from the mid-air are approximately the same distance from Chicago

Actually if they meet nose to nose then the eastbound plane will be slightly closer, for a few milliseconds anyway.

[baabaabobo]

If they "meet" especially nose to nose would that not be a mid-air collision?
