Ok I have one.
There is a farmer with three things, a goose, a fox, and a sack of corn. The farmer needs to take all three things across the river to the other side, however his boat can only hold him and one other thing,ALSO the fox can't stay with the goose, and the goose can't stay with the corn. What is the least amount of times the father can cross the river until everthing is on the other side? Explain your number.

HelenHeld, I guess he caught the fox and is about to do something to it. I didn't make the problem up anyway.

They were leaving the theater after seeing the movie.
No trees were killed in the making of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

The two tickets are attached on a perforated strip.

No. But nice try, chajodawg is basically right, depending on the theatre.
The Answer Is: Tina is an usher at the theatre, Mark is going to the movies with his brother not Tina.

Haha, that's what I meant, I just forgot what to call the person who tears the tickets at the theater

Well I have some basic problems with this one. First she is a woman so would of course be mad that her boyfriend has gone to the movies without her!
Second, if she was a decent girlfriend she would have got them in for free, hence no tickets to rip up!! ;) |

Here's one.
Twelve riders are in the desert. They come upon an apple tree bearing twelve apples. Each takes an apple, but there are eleven left. How is this possible? |

They picked up the ripe ones that fell to the ground....
Here's one.... A young woman at her mother's funeral sees a hansome man. In all the confusion, she never gets his name or finds anything about him. A month later she kills her sister. What is the motive?
