The first answer to the baseball riddle was correct. An error which does not result in a baserunner, such as a dropped foul ball.


I'm doing this in this odd position 'cause my browser
sees the text box as full.
It wasn't 'WWI' until well into WWII. It was "The World War."





Engraved on the sword is the following:

(Yes it was it French, this is the translation.)

"This sword awarded to Sergeant William Nelson, US Army, for exceptional valor during the struggle of World War I.

Awarded this day, January 15, 1919."

And it was signed: George Clemenceau


The man immediately told his friend that it was a fake. How did he know?

(Yes, George Clemenceau was the leader of France at the time.) [/B]

What's the difference between a peeping tom and a pick pocket?

What's the difference between a tribe of pygmies and a womens track team?

What's the difference between a blonde (sorry, had to) and the Panama Canal?

Three men each get a hotel room. The desk clerk charges them $30.

Later he realizes he overcharged them, and it should have been $25 for the 3 rooms.

The clerk gives the bellhop $5 to return to the men.

The bell hop figures he'll just give each man $1 back. They'll be happy and never know the difference and he can pocket $2.


Now the men have paid $9 each. 9 times 3 is 27. The bellhop has $2. 27 + 2 = 29. What happened to the last dollar?
