April Fools
On the radio this morning there was a program during which the announcers quizzed a caller with a number of puzzles. These are the ones I remember:
If you had six white pigs, five black pigs and seven gray pigs, how many pigs could say that they were they same color as another pig?
A man walks out in pouring rain without a hat or an umbrella and does not get a single hair wet, though his clothes are soaked. How did he do it?
A train is approaching a man walking on the tracks; before jumping off the tracks he runs straight at the train for ten feet. Why?
A woman drops her expensive diamond ring into some coffee and it doesn’t get wet. Why?
A pet store owner tells a customer, "This parrot repeats everything he hears.” The customer buys the parrot but it never says a single word. The store owner was not lying. How do you explain this?
The caller got every question right.
1) Zero. Pigs can’t speak.
2.) The man is bald.
3.) He had to run ahead to get off a bridge.
4.) The coffee was dry grounds.
5.) The parrot was deaf.
