Marlene,
Your answers are far funnier than the punchline to the riddle. I'm tempted to award you the prize, but I think if I wait long enough some of our mostest cleverest classmates might possibly come up with something wittier (hard to imagine) or actually correct. I know if Vince tries hard enough he can get it. Do we have any detective clssmates who could come up with something? So,for that reason I'm holding out a little longer. Bucky gets some points for his take on the matter, but he's already driving to Tucson so no need to declare him a winner.
ps I'm working on some actual jokes for you...
and I will reveal the pathetic actual answer to the riddle tomorrow.
Thank you for humoring me!
xoxo Lisa

Ok I Bite, and I am no Scientist but hear goes, the Fish are dead natural bacteria in their bodies makes the bloat thereby displacing more Water.

Hows that?

When I am in Tucson I'll take you up on the offer, Sven won't mind will he?

Tom,
Good try. Very scientifically sound if in fact a bloated fish weighs more than a dead fish...but please, I would not leave the dead fish in the tank...so sorry! But you can come to Tucson anyway...and no Swen won't mind cause a friend of mine is a friend of Sven's (especially if said friend likes football, likes to golf and likes Pizza.)

Are the fish in the water tank of a toilet? After you flush the dead fish down,the water in the tank is replaced with new water.

Here's a riddle I've never seen anyone figure out:

A girl comes in to my office and fills out a job application. Later that day an identical looking girl also does the same. The first names on the applications are different, but everything else (last name, address, schools, date and place of birth, parents names) are the same.

I ask the girl, "Are you twins?", to which her response was "Oh no! Everyone thinks that though.".

They're not twins? How is that?


Here's some easy ones:

1. Which is correct to say, "The yolk of the egg are white?" or "The yolk of the egg is white?"

2. You answer me, although I never ask you questions. What am I?

3.If you have it, you want to share it. If you share it, you don't have it. What is it?

4.What goes up and down stairs without moving?

5.If a rooster laid a brown egg and a white egg, what kind of chicks would hatch?

6.Only two backbones and thousands of ribs.

7. What question can you never answer "yes" to?

8.You can't keep this until you have given it.

9.Clara Clatter was born on December 27th, yet her birthday is always in the summer. How is this possible?

10. Jack and Jill are lying on the floor inside the house, dead. They died from lack of water. There is shattered glass next to them. How did they die?

1 yolks are yellow
2 the doorbell
4 a carpet
5 roosters don't lay eggs
7 Are you dead?
9 She lives in Australia

How'd I do?
This site is becoming a real distraction...

Vin,
I don't know what the BeJesus a lateral thinking puzzle is...but good answers to Greg's riddles. I only got about 4 of them! Poor Jack and Jill..it makes me so sad (ps that's a hint to my riddle.)
Hi Mary Grace Carol. Earth to Carol come in. Do you think the sugar gliders have done Carol in????

Carol came to my house so she lives! The sugar babies didn't eat her up! She has been a lil under the weather. She lost her phone...I donm't know if she found it yet.
Hi to Lisa....Hey Bucky....Marlene and Greg...Back to class I go.

Marlene Stager

Lisa,
The fish owners, perhaps Jack and Jill, are fish lovers unlike myself and cried desperately into the tank of all places and between the two of them...caused the water level to rise...unwittingly killing the others with the salt water = more tears....ohhhh the fishmanity.

Greg,
I read slowly.... 10) they died from lack of water.

Buck,
You are hysterical...are you referencing from experience? Fish in the toilet tank!

Vincent DeJesus

Lisa-
Are you serious? That's where you're going with your riddle? Just so I don't blow the answer for everyone else let me just say:
-Fish don't
-Fish can't
-You can't "add" something to the tank that's already there.
I expect you to be much more devious.

Marlene-
Fishmanity. Loved it.

10/24/08 02:23 PM #1024    

Lisa Coppola

Okay Vince
You got me. The water level goes up because the 2 surviving fish were crying!!!!!!!!
Forgive me everyone. Welcome to Tuscon Vince!
(Marlene...honorable mention)
Ellen...You are so smart. You're very smart and clever and wonderful!
Try this one on your daughter...Confuscius (sp?) say..."I am too old to think I know everything."

Weg,
I thought #10 was that they froze to death. The bottle of water was frozen so they couldn't drink it. When the water froze, it expanded & shattered the bottle it was in, hence the broken glass.

My dog is a black mexican you know.

I got this from a co-worker today:
FIVE BEST THINGS TO SAY IF YOU GET CAUGHT SLEEPING AT YOUR DESK:


NUMBER 5: They told me at the Blood Bank this might happen.

NUMBER 4: 'This is just a 15 minute power nap they raved about in the time-management course you sent me to.

NUMBER 3: 'Whew! Guess I left the top off the White-out. You probably got here just in time!

NUMBER 2: Did you ever notice sound coming out of these keyboards when you put your ear down real close?

Number 1 And my favorite: (Raising your head slowly) '... in Jesus' name, Amen.
