Riddle:
There are five acquaintances. One of them shot and killed one of the other five. Which man is the murderer? 1. Dan ran in N.Y. City marathon yesterday with one of the innocent men. 2. Mike considered being a farmer before he moved to the city. 3. Jeff is a top-notch computer consultant and wants to install Ben's new computer next week. 4. The murderer had his leg amputated last month. 5. Ben met Jack for the first time six months ago. 6. Jack has been in seclusion since the crime. 7. Dan used to drink heavily. 8. Ben and Jeff built their last computers together. 9. The murderer is Jack's brother; they grew up together in Seattle.
Answer: 1. Jack is not the murderer, because he is the brother of the murderer. 2. Dan can't be the murderer since he ran a marathon, and the murderer recently had his leg amputated, and wouldn't be running a marathon of any magnitude that quickly. 3. Ben is not the murderer if he just met Jack, since Jack and the murderer grew up together. 4. This leaves Jeff and Mike. Since Jeff is still alive (he wants to install a new computer next week, present tense) he must be the murderer. Mike also didn't grow up with Jack. It has been determined that Jack, Dan and Jeff are all alive. Ben must also be alive since Jeff plans to install Ben's computer next week. This means that Jeff killed Mike.
Riddle:
“Did they bring it? Did they bring it? Did they bring it?” asked Mr. McCue excitedly. “If you’re talking about your precious piece of furniture — yes, they did bring it while you were at work,” responded his wife in an irritable fashion. “Well, where is it?” asked Mr. McCue impatiently. “I told the delivery guys to take it back,” replied Mrs. McCue. “What!!! Why on earth did you refuse the delivery!?” Said her husband angrily. “For three reasons,” explained his wife. “Number one: it was so big, and heavy, and clunky. Number two: the rug on it was green, but our carpet is red, so the colors clash. Number three (and this is the main reason I sent it back): It had six large holes in it, and I wasn’t about to accept delivery of damaged merchandise which you had told me cost us a lot of money,” stated Mrs. McCue logically. “But it was meant to be that way!!!” shouted her husband. What was the piece of furniture Mr. and Mrs. McCue were discussing?
Answer: A new pool table.

Riddle:
A king decided to let a prisoner try to escape the prison with his life. The king placed 2 marbles in a jar that was glued to a table. One of the marbles was supposed to be black, and one was supposed to be blue. If the prisoner could pick the blue marble, he would escape the prison with his life. If he picked the black marble, he would be executed. However, the king was very mean, and he wickedly placed 2 black marbles in the jars and no blue marbles. The prisoner witnessed the king only putting 2 black marbles in the jars. If the jar was not see-through and the jar was glued to the table and the prisoner was mute so he could not say anything, how did he escape with his life?
Answer: The prisoner grabbed one of the marbles from the jar and concealed it in his hand. He then swallowed it, and picked up the other marble and showed everyone. The marble was black, and since the other marble was swallowed, it was assumed to be the blue one. So the mean king had to set him free
