Question: One day two men walked into the bar. Both men were exactly alike, a clone you could say. They both sat down for the bartender to fix them a drink. The first man sat down, waited on the bartender to fix his drink. When it was given to him he drunk it very fast, left, and had a happy life. The next man sat down, and waited on the bartender to fix his drink. When the drink was given to him he drunk it very slowly, and died right there on the spot. Why did the first man live but the second man die?
Answer: The bartender placed a poison in both of the drinks. The trick is, the poison was in the ice. So, the first man drank the drink so fast that the ice didn't melt, so the poison did not get in his drink. The second man drank the drink way too slow, so the ice had time to melt out into the drink. The poison got into his drink and he died.
Question: You are stuck in a cement room with no windows or doors. The only things in the room with you are a table and a mirror. How do you get out?
Answer: You first look in the mirror and see what you saw, take the saw and cut the table in half, two halves make a hole, jump through the hole and YOU'RE OUT!

Question: There are two bars of iron. One bar is magnetized along its length, while the other is not. Using just the two bars, without any other items, how can you tell which bar is magnetized and which bar is not?
Answer: Take the two bars, and put them together like a T. (Put one bar horizontally across and center the vertical bar under it.) Bar #1 is the top of the "T" and bar #2 is the vertical bar.
If they stick together, then bar #2 is the magnet. If they don't, bar #1 is the magnet.
Bar magnets are "dead" in their centers and there is no magnetic force, since the two poles cancel out. So, if bar #1 is the magnet, then bar #2 won't stick to its center.
However, bar magnets are quite "alive" at their edges and the magnetic force is concentrated. If bar #2 is the magnet, bar #1 will stick to it.
Question: With potent, flowery words speak I,
Of something common, vulgar, dry;
I weave webs of pedantic prose,
In effort to befuddle those,
Who think I while time away,
In lofty things, above all day
The common kind that linger where
Monadic beings live and fare;
Practical I may not be,
But life, it seems, is full of me!
