I think my last one was clever. This one… ehh not so much.

How can you throw a ball so that it goes a short distance, comes to a total stop, reverses its motion, and then goes the opposite way? You are not allowed to bounce it against anything, hit it with anything, or tie it to anything.

Answers saturday!

Puzzle 43

Posted on September 26, 2011 by James

Last week I was driving the local school bus and 12 kids got on. At the next stop, 5 got off and 7 got on. At the next stop, 10 got on and 1 got off. At the last stop 23 kids got off. What was the name of the bus driver?

I’d be shocked and appalled if no one gets this. You have till Saturday.

But I know how that sentence is true! Answer Saturday.

Puzzle 41

Well for #40 I thought I would do something challenging.

Over the last few hundred years there have been thousands of reported incidents of horses jumping over towers and landing on clergy and small men, forcing their removal. These incidents are well documented and there is great evidence that they all happened. How can this be explained?

I actually witness this frequently and I’ll tell you how on Saturday.

Two Towers

Posted on September 11, 2011 by James

Two towers stood tall and free.
They were a beacon of liberty.

Two towers looked out to the sea,
But looming there was tragedy.

Two towers knew not why it came,
Yet the effect was seen all the same.

Two towers felt the first blow,
And to all around, time did slow.

Two towers captivated a nation’s glare,
And all were wondering who would dare.

Two towers felt the deathly crash.
Innocent’s days ended fast.

Two towers’ supports gave their all,
But soon did the first one fall.

One tower down; caught by surprise,
Souls of victims began to rise.

Two towers were many’s bane
As the second one, down it came.

Two towers’ fires could not be tamed,
And now the protector’s lives it claimed.

Two towers; more souls lost a hopeless fight,
But in that loss, a county unite.

Never forget.
