this weeks trick questions answers!!!

tell me if you got any of these right!!!

1. 1, i was the only one going to st. ives.

2. You have only left one. (You brought the other two with you.)

3. The letter *r*.

4. None of the above.
The third millennium started recently, not the second.

5. You were the pilot, so your name.

6. Edam (*made* backwards)

7. Forever... the boat rises with the tide.

8. In an alphabetical listing of US states.

9. One big pile.

10.Four

11. What ... that*s the dog*s name.

12. One; after that the bread is no longer whole.

13. They both weigh the same. N.B.: Only if weighed with the same pound counterweight on a balance scale.

Alternatively, feathers, like most items, are measured in pounds
avoirdupois, but gold is measured in pounds troy. People will
commonly tell you that there are 16 ounces in a pound avoirdupois
and 12 ounces in a pound troy, but this isn*t a great explanation
because an ounce avoirdupois and an ounce troy aren*t the same thing
either. But if you go down to grains, which _is_ a common measure in
the two systems (or translate to grams), there a pound of feathers
weighs 7000 grains (454 g), but a pound of gold weighs 5760 grains
(373 g). In this real-life scenario a pound of feathers weighs more
than a pound of gold.

14.From an duck*s egg.

15.One is a half a dollar and the other is a nickel

16.The answer is ONCE, because after that you are folding it into quarters, then eighths, etc.

If you were to answer it beyond this trick question, then 8 would be maximum. I tried it, and after that the paperbegan to tear.

17.An able-bodied person, i.e. not an invalid. It is pretty normal not to have ALL your fingers on ONE hand.

18.Only the boys were actually buried. The story tells us that in this massacre Herod would only have killed boys, because he wanted to kill Jesus, the future king of Israel.

19.The toe of a boot usually faces forward.

20.The sophisticated computer (the broken clock is only right twice a day, the other clock only once in every 236.55 years).


i didn't really like these trick questions, they were hard in a simple way. you had to really pay attention. plus, they were kinda dumb.

i'll get better!
