This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

The person who gets this first must post the next Brain Teaser.
It does not contain the letter E anywhere in the paragraph.
Right, try this one:
A man has 3 balls. He needs to get over his bridge but it will only hold the weight of him and 2 balls at any one time. And finnaly he is only allowed 1 journey over and one journey back. Yet he still gets all 3 balls and himself over in 1 trip. How is this possible.

your turn
David's father is in charge of decorating the two-layer cake for Great Grampa's birthday. Great Grampa's birthday is on the Fourth of July, he used to be a pilot, and he loves fishing. David and his father have decided to decorate the sides of the lower layer of the cake (measuring 9 in. x 15 in.) with fish and the sides of the upper layer (6 in. x 9 in.) with airplanes. They are going to wrap flags around each corner of both layers. All the decorations are 1 in. wide, and each flag is folded so that one half-inch of each flag shows at each side of the corner.
"We need 2 inches between all decorations," says David's father. "Otherwise it will look too crowded."
How many fish decorations will David and his father place along the bottom layer of the cake?
hang on because i have a good one :
i know its not my turn but it's good and ill see who gets it by the time i get back from shopping.
This is from Mr-bailiff
a conference room contains three seperate wall-mounted spotlights-right, left and front of is controlled by its own on-off three switches are numbered 1,2 and 3, but they are in a back room which has no sight of the spotlights or the conference room(and there are no reflections or mirrors, and you are alone). How do you identify each correctly- right, left, front - if you can only enter the back-room once????
if someone gets it right he will buy them a well deserved drink at the next munch!!!
happy thinking

they can fit 12 fish (4 + 4 + 2 + 2 = 12) along the bottom layer.

Switch on number 1 and leave it on for 30 seconds, then switch it off. Switch on number 2 and leave it on. Enter the conference room. The spotlight that is on is obviously number 2. The spotlight that is warm is switch 1, and the other spotlight is number 3.
Was I close? wink

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between
three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full
of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that
haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?
The third? Lions that haven't eaten for three years are dead aren't they? confused

Come and let me give you something else to do, instead of thinking.
A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?
If a certain user answers this correctly .......... I'll know which website they have been visiting... hehehe

She shoots him with a camera then process the pic and hangs it to dry.
Then they go out.
