Copied and pasted from another message board:
Avery, Jones, Robinson, Kucic, and Himmelfarb are the starting players on the college basketball team. Avery, who wears jersey number 30, told number 45, Jones, that Robinson was the mean one. Kucic, who wears number 35, told Himmelfarb that Avery was absolutely right. But Robinson, number 40, is even-tempered and kind to everybody. What is Himmelfarb's number?
Here's a few others:
-What builds up castles, tears down mountains, makes some blind, helps others see?
-What lives in winter, dies in summer, and grows with it's roots upward?
-Man walks over, man walks under, in times of war, he burns asunder.
-This thing runs but cannot walk, sometimes sings but never talks. Lacks arms, has hands, lacks a head but has a face. What is it?
-Cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind the stars and beneath the hills. Ends life and kills laughter. What is it?
-I have a hundred legs, but I cannot stand, a long neck but no head. I ease the maid's life.
-Where can you find roads without carts, forests without trees, and cities without houses?
-In a tunnel of darkness lies a beast of iron. It can only attack when pulled back. What is it?
