Allright then; two easy riddles:
a. I have a bottle of wine which costs 10 dollar. The price of the wine is 9 dollars more than the bottle. What is the price of the wine and what is the price of the bottle? b. I am alone in a cold and dark house; in it is a fireplace, an oillamp, a candle, but only one match. Which one should I light first to get some light or to be warm? |

Thanks, desertblues!
In an ordinary deck of playing cards, two of the Jacks have two eyes and two of the Jacks have one eye. How many eyes are on the four Jack cards? |

O.k. here goes:
Two sisters are talking about their ages: "One year ago, I was exactly half as old as you" said the younger one. The older sister replies: "Even one year from now, your age will be half my age. Here look, if we split the numbers into two parts, top and bottom, they both give your age in a year's time." How old is the little sister? |

A jewelry store was robbed and the sack containing the jewels was found a few miles from town in some bushes. The Detective had two suspects but made no attempt to interrogate either of them. Two days later the Detective summoned both the suspects to his office and promptly arrested the one that was guilty.
Without any investigative work, how was the Detective certain of arresting the right person? |
