Question: King Tut died 120 years after King Eros was born. Their combined ages when they died was 100 years. King Eros died in the year 40 B.C. In what year was King Tut born?
Answer: King Tut was born in 20 B.C. There were 120 years between the birth of King Eros and the death of King Tut, but since their ages amounted to only 100 years, there must have been 20 years when neither existed. This would be a period between the death of King Eros, 40 B.C., and the birth of King Tut, 20 B.C.
Question: There was an Italian gut, a Mexican guy, and a blonde American guy. They were all construction workers and they were all working on the same site. At lunch, they all opened the lunches. The Italian had a plate of Spaghetti, the Mexican had an Enchilada, and the Blonde had a Bologna Sandwich. They were all sick and tired of having the same thing everyday. So the Italian said 'If I eat another plate of Spaghetti, I am going to jump off the Empire State Building.'. 'Me too! If I eat another Enchilada, I will jump off too!' Agreed the Mexican. 'Me Three! If I eat another Bologna sandwich I will jump off also!'
The next day they all had the same thing and all jumped of the building and died. At their funeral, the italian wife said ' If he would have told me, I would have packed him something different!' ' Me too!' Said the Mexicans wife. Then those two wives looked at the blondes wife.What do you think she said?(she is blonde)
