Riddle:
Frank and some of the boys were exchanging old war stories. James offered one about how his grandfather (Captain Smith)led a battalion against a German division during World War I. Through brilliant maneuvers he defeated them and captured valuable territory. Within a few months after the battle he was presented with a sword bearing the inscription: "To Captain Smith for Bravery, Daring and Leadership, World War One, from the Men of Battalion 8." Frank looked at James and said, "You really don't expect anyone to believe that yarn, do you?" What is wrong with the story?

Riddle:
I'm not the alphabet, but I have letters. I'm not a pole, but I have a flag. What am I?
Answer: A Mailbox. A “mailbox” has “letters,” but they’re mail, not alphabet characters. It also has a “flag,” the small lever you raise to signal outgoing mail, even though it isn’t a pole with a flag. So both clues fit a mailbox through wordplay.

Riddle:
My name is revered in many places, and despised in others. People often come to me seeking wisdom and advice, and usually I can help them, if they follow my guidance. I am the overseer of two groups of faithful instructors --- thirty-nine on one side of me and twenty seven on the other, to be exact. I'm not a magician, but in the past, one of my manifestations disappeared for a time, and reappeared years later in a desert cave. I often wear a leather jacket, even when temperatures reach over 100 degrees, but neither cold nor heat affects me much. And now, dear reader, it is time for you to give your revelation of the solution to this puzzle. Who, or what am I?
Answer: I am the BIBLE. The two groups of faithful instructors are the Old and New Testaments (39 books in the Old and 27 in the New). The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in a desert cave confirmed the veracity of the original texts. Many Bibles are covered in leather (jackets).
