1)  Ok, there are 8 dimonds. One is fake. The only way to tell if the dimond is fake is by the weight. You have a scale in front of you, not one of the hanging ones, but one on a table. You can only weigh them three times. How do you figure out which one is fake?

2) It prods a man's hand, and it robs him of sleep
It makes him climb mountains and travel the deep
It makes him go wander down deep in a cave
and do almost anything stupid or brave
The longer denied the greater it grows
It makes a man learn 'till he thinks that he knows

3) Silent Unseen, small cousin of death
Born this instant, closer than breath
Killer of thoughts, assassin of dreams
I am the end of all of your schemes
what am i?
Hint 1) It's from the Iron Dragon's Daughter

4)  Clothes of brass,
hair of brown,
seldom need to breathe,
don't need no wings to fly,
oh and a heart of stone.
With a fear of fire and water who am I?

5) 30 white horses upon a red hill, first they clamp, then stamp and then they stand still.

What are they?

6) Can three houses be connected to three utilities without the pipes crossing? Remember each house must have a connection from each utility.

_
| oil | |water| | gas |
|| || ||


__
|HOUSE| |HOUSE| |HOUSE|
| one | | two | |three |

7) A married couple were lying in bed one night.

The wife is curled up, ready to go to sleep, as the husband turns his bed lamp on to read a book. As he's reading, he periodically reaches over to his wife and fondles her special area. He does this a few times, but only for a very short intervals before turning back to read his book.

The wife gradually becomes more and more aroused and assuming that her husband is seeking some encouragement she gets up and starts stripping in front of him.

The husband is confused and asks, "Why are you taking off your clothes?"

His wife replies, "You were rubbing me downtown. I thought it was foreplay. "The husband says, "No, not at all."

what was the husband doing?

8) in ancient china, three men are the prime suspects, in the stealing of the emperors treasure. they cannot find any evidence to blame one or the other, so they go to the town magician. the magician has an idea, so he takes 3, 5' long sticks, and sticks them 1' into the ground, so that 4' is sticking up. he says that in the morning, the theif's stick will have risen 1' while the others stay the same. in the morning they arrested the correct man. how did the magician pull this stunt off?

9) Ok,you are walking is a forest. There are three trees. They all look exactly the same, except one of the trees have a leave at te top that is an inch bigger then the other two. You can only climb one tree to figure it out. You do not have binoculars so you can't see the other trees from the top of one.

How do you tell which one is different?

10) Whilst digging in a 4,500-year-old burial mound at Xiaguan in Yunnan province in central China, a parchment was found sealed inside a clay vessel for its owner to take with him on his journey to his ancestors. The parchment talks of a traveller, getting lost on a mountain, and whilst seeking safety sees two old men sitting by a fire next to the entrance of a cave. As he approached, he overheard the last part of their conversation, and he later recorded it thus.


Mr Riddle puzzle me in and puzzle me out.
Riddle me dark from the cave to shout.
The question is easy the answer is not.
It lives in the future that has yet to arrive.
I would if I could I could not and died.
Had I have lived I would have not lied.


Mr Puzzle riddle me left riddle me right.
Puzzle me bright from the fire to light.
The answer is easy the question is not.
It lies in the past that time has forgot.
Do I just jest or do I jest not.
I know the truth do I or do I not.


What was the question and answer?
