I think I might have heard that one before a long time ago.

I think the answer is "therein"

1. the
2. there
3. he
4. here
5. herein
6. her
7. in
8. ere
9. rein
10. therein

:)

Ok...

A man was building a house out of bricks, and he had just enough bricks to build the house. Not one to many or one too few. He takes one brick and throws it up in the air, how many does he have now?


I dont feel like writing in different colors, btw. And why the heck is the bear white? I dont get it.

The bear is white because the house was built at the North Pole. On the North Pole. It's a Polar Bear. :)

No, I think you were right.

And no one has got my riddle...and it's a really hard one, so in the mean time, I'll tell you another one. If someone can get the answer to this one, I'll give you the answer to the first:

A man and a woman are on an airplane, traveling to England. The man is a very worn down person, and looks like a bit of a hermit. He has torn clothing and appears to be poor, but he is smoking a cigar.

Next to him is a very very high class woman, wearing very elegant clothes and a lot of expensive jewelry. She has her hair all done up, and almost appears to be royale. She is holding a poodle in her lap.

She turns to the man and says: "sir, that cigar smells dreadful, and is causing my clothes to stink, please put it out."

The man replies: "I will put out my cigar if you get rid of that poodle."

The woman promptly throws the poodle out of the window. The man is stunned. He thought the poodle was the womans pride and joy. So he smiles and tosses out his cigar.

Suddenly someone yells: "Dog on the wing!!!"

So everyone on the plane rushes over to see, and they see a dog on the wing of the plane, with something in it's mouth.

What is it?

First guess would be the Cigar, but maybe it's deeper than that.

Like a bajillion miles deeper...

And it's not a three headed monkey, but that was a good guess.

I'll give you guys a few more tries.
