You are on an island in the middle of a lake. The lake is in a remote part of the country and there has never been a bridge connecting the island to the mainland. \n\nEvery day a tractor and wagon gives hay rides around the island. Puzzled as to how the tractor had gotten onto the island, you ask around and find out that the tractor was not transported to the island by boat or by air. Nor was it built on the island. \n\nExplain how the tractor got there?

weather service\n\nAn Indian chief wanted to know what the weather was going to be for the upcoming winter so he called the weather service. They said they expected colder than normal, so the chief told the tribe to collect dead wood to store. A month later the chief called the weather service to get an update, they said for sure it was going to be colder than normal. So the chief told the tribe to cut down any dead trees they could find. A month later, November, the chief called the weather service to get another update. The weather service said, "There is no doubt about it - it is definately going to be colder than normal." The chief asked them how they were so sure. They answered, "Are you kidding? The Indians are collecting fire wood like madmen!"

That IS weird! We had something really weird happen to us last night. While cleaning up this Avion trailer (that was brought here from somewhere else)with lots of junk in it that we were basically shoveling into a trash hauler, my husband found a photo. It was taken during the big flood, around 1990 I think. Our house is on a lake and every 20-30 years they flood the lake and our house is in the underwater zone! (Yeah, we knew this when we moved in! Now the lake is waaay out there, luckily!)Okay, so, the house in the picture is THIS HOUSE, halfway underwater! For sure. My grandson and I walked to the angle from where the photo was taken, and we I.D.d the tree in the backyard and the swing. HOW WEIRD IS THAT?

He asks one of the person, "Which road will the other man tell me leading to X?"\n\nJust take the opposite road.. Simple..\n\nJustification:\nIf the man was truthteller, then the other man would have told the person the wrong way and so the truthteller would also tell him the wrong way..\n\nIf the man was the liar, then the truthteller would have told the right way but the liar would tell the other way round to the traveller, hence the wrong...\n\nSo whatever answer the traveller gets for this question, he goes the opposite way.

This is the first time I've ever heard this version of the joke. I don't know what this is right here, but it makes absolutely no sense. \n\nThere were three guys walking down the street and ran acroos this farm house. The lady said they could stay in the house and have breakfast in the morning but if not they had to stay in the barn. \n\nWHY would they have to stay in the barn?? What were the guys suppose to do in order to stay in the house???\n\nI cannot express this enough; when posting a joke, write it correctly.

You can equate it to the "Carrot and Stick" theory. If you hold the carrot far enough from the mules nose they keep following it in hopes of being able to eat it.\n\nSanctions are similar in that you tell someone (a country) they can have the carrot (that is just a little out of reach), as soon as they do what you want.

1. Gathering chickens\n\nThe farmer's son was returning from the market with the crate of chicken's his father had entrusted to him, when all of a sudden the box fell and broke open. Chickens scurried off in different directions, but the determined boy walked all over the neighborhood scooping up the wayward birds and returning them to the repaired crate. Hoping he had found them all, the boy reluctantly returned home, expecting the worst.\n\n"Pa, the chickens got loose," the boy confessed sadly, "but I managed to find all twelve of them."\n\n"Well, you did real good, son," the farmer beamed. "You left with seven."\n\n\n2. Try to grow chickens\nA New York City yuppie moved to the country and bought a piece of land. He went to the local feed and livestock store and talked to the proprietor about how he was going to take up chicken farming. He then asked to buy 100 chicks.\n\n"That's a lot of chicks," commented the proprietor. "I mean business," the city slicker replied.\n\nA week later the yuppie was back again. "I need another 100 chicks," he said. "Boy, you are serious about this chicken farming," the man told him.\n\n"Yeah," the yuppie replied. "If I can iron out a few problems." "Problems?" asked the proprietor. "Yeah," replied the yuppie, "I think I planted that last batch too close together." \n\n\n--- ► λ ◄

Oh Yes!!  My Grandpa used to put me in the back of the truck as we drove down the dirt road to the cow pasture.  There was a gate to open and close behind us every two minutes of the ride, so there was no point in getting into the cab when I could just hop over the side and do it.  \n\nThen when we got there, we would check the trot lines at the catfish pond and feed the cows.  What a very innocent time of my life.  I wish I could have it back.

Have you ever seen trees still, then suddenly start shaking around or "swaying" inexplicably--with no one else around? Have you ever been in or seen a sailboat?  The motion of acceleration that did not come from an engine is to be explained how?  Have you ever driven with your windows open?  Storms do not just stay in one place, rather they proceed across the continent.  All of these things are attributable to....WIND! I win lol!  P.S. Just because you haven't seen something--doesn't mean it doesn't exist: ex= a baby pigeon!  lol

It's the ground that is being pushed 'back'.  Since the ground is part of the earth, there doesn't seem to any reaction to the action of the horse pulling the cart.\n\nI'd just tell the horse that there is no reason to feed it, because in a few hours the horse would just be hungry again.

I think the hardest question ever asked was asked by a scientist.  This was the question, and it literally drove him insane thinking about it:  Two large metallic orbs are traveling towards each other on a collision course.  Both are indestructable, and nothing can divert them from their path in any way.  They can never stop moving on their path for any reason.  What would happen when they collide?  Neither can be moved from the path that they are traveling, they cannot be destroyed, and they can never stop moving.
