A man lives in an apartment on the 20th floor.
Every day when he gets home from work, he gets in the lift and presses the button for floor 15, gets out on floor 15 and gets the stairs to floor 20, where he lives. Why?

A woman leaves her husband for the church. Why?

because he is too short to reach the button for the 20th floor!

Some cogs are tigs.
All tigs are bons.
Some bons are pabs.
Some pabs are tigs.
Therefore, cogs are definitely pabs.

TRUE or FALSE?

Kiwi, I hope you enjoy my second book as much as the first.

I have to admit my friend, as far as these riddles go, there's no fooling you. Well done and all the very best.

The wife takes a photo puts it in the stuff which devlops the picture and dries it and then goes out for food :P

Here we go my turn i believe :D

Three guys walk into town. They go into a hotel and ask for a
room they can share. The clerk has just the thing they want for
thirty dollars. The clerk sends them to the room, takes out the
ledger, and realizes that he made a mistake. The room costs only
twenty-five dollars. Now he has to divide five dollars evenly
three ways. Can't be done. So the clerk pockets two dollars,
tells the guys that he made a three dollar mistake and gives them
each a single. Now, each man paid only nine dollars for his share
of the room. Nine times three equals twenty seven, plus the two in
the clerk's pocket equals twenty nine. Where's the other dollar?

There isn't one

You're not trying to find the thirty dollars - you're trying to find twenty five dollars - the 3 guys paid thirty, minus the 3 they got back, minus the 2 in the clerk's pocket - you're not supposed to add them when he gives it back, it's still part of the same thirty.
