26. A man falls overboard and gets washed ashore an island with nothing but sand. The island is 50 miles from the nearest land. He can't swim, the water's 100 feet deep, and the island has nothing to make a floatation device with. With no help from people, animals, fish, or machines he finds a way off the island. How does he do it?

He waited until winter, when the water froze.

29. Mountains will crumble and temples will fall, and no man can survive its endless call.

i say we disqualify shmeeps for being damned too many times XD

ADDITION:
took me 5 day to get this one

he paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why?


"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night. A busy day's traffic had had its noisy run; and with not many folks in sight, His Honor got along without having to stop to grasp a hand, or talk; for a mayor out of City Hall is a shining mark for any politician. And so, coming to Broadway, a booming bass drum and sounds of singing, told of a small Salvation Army unit carrying on amidst Broadway's night shopping crowds. Gadsby, walking towards that group, saw a youg girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... "
The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's

Ok ok heres a riddle:
A man and a woman were driving in their car when it broke down. The man decided to go for help at a gas station a few miles back. He made sure nobody was in the car, rolled all the windows up, and locked all of the sedan's doors. He went off, but when he came back, his wife was dead, and there was a stranger in the car. No physical damage was done to the car, so how did the stranger get in?

Celestial sprites elucidate
All my own striving can't relate

I went into the woods and found it
Sat down to seek it
And went home with it, because I couldn't find it.

How did the man manage to survive to get to the island? If he can then he can get off.

another one

Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How'd he do it

His wife had a kid, and died during child birth.

He was standing on ice, put the noose around his neck, ice melted, he died.

#33 He was Grover Cleveland. He was elected twice I think... He had two non-consecutive terms. Harrison beat him and he beat back Harrison. In other words, Harrision was pwnz0rd! tongue.gif

So he was technically the 22nd and 24th president of the U.S! Harrison being 23rd.
