    You are driving a bus. There are 8 people on that bus.
    4 get on at the first stop and 3 get off.
    No one gets off at the second one and one person gets on.
    5 people get on at the third and at the forth, you are flagged down but it's a mistake and no one gets on or off.


    Now that you've done all of that math,
    What's the bus driver's name?


    Well, since it's my bus...Captain McCool! lol...

    The maid, there's no mail on Sundays.

    Weak. It was Sunday morning. If the staff is only there in the morning and afternoon and the mail comes late on saturday, it is plausible that the mail is retrieved on Sunday morning. Weak *kitten* riddle.

    And ok, since that got solved...

    There are 2 trolls guarding a door each. One leads to eternal happiness, and one to hell. Once you have passed through there is no going back.

    One of the trolls will always tell the truth, the other will always lie. However, you don't know which is which.

    You are allowed 1 question to determine which door to go through. What should you ask and to whom?

    Ask either troll (doesnt matter which one), what color are my eyes?.. you'll either get the truth or a lie.

    Close but the q has to be about whats behind the door - not eyes

    ...and I am stupid bored right now.

    So -

    you have a bag of corn, a chicken, and a dog. you must cross a river and get them all across, however - you can only carry one at a time. To make matters worse, you cannot leave the chicken with the corn, because it will eat it and you cannot leave the dog with the chicken for the same reason. How do you do it?
    Being Asian I'd eat the chicken and the dog and plant the corn.

    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 the middle and the 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?
    spider

    It is indeed a spider. :happy:

    I've been asked for a breakdown so here goes:

    "First think of the person who lives in disguise,
    Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies."

    This is a SPY

    "Next, tell me what's always the last thing to mend,
    The middle of the middle and the end of the end?"

    This is D as it is:
    "last thing to menD", "miDDle of the miDDle", "enD of the enD"

    "And finally give me the sound often heard,
    During the search for a hard-to-find word."

    This is ER when you can't think of something you say errrr etc.

    So the answer is SPIDER :smile:
