1) It was a snowman until the weather got too warm.

Well done again, Wanderlust.

2) A woman lives on the tenth floor of an apartment building. Every morning she takes the elevator all the way down, and goes to work. In the evening, she gets into the elevator, and, if there is someone else in it she goes back to her floor directly. Otherwise, she goes to the seventh floor and walks up three flights of stairs to her apartment. Why?

2 she can only reach the no 7 button

Well done Lindosfan.... The woman in question is indeed a midget and cannot reach the all the buttons.

3) A man is lying drowned in a dead forest, far from water. How did this happen?

No 3. There was a forest fire and the man got sucked into the fire fighters tanks where he drowned and later ejected on to the embers of eh fire.

Well Done Guess, The man was scuba diving at the time and was taken when aircrafts were filling up with water to douse the forest fires flames.

4) If it has a quart capacity, how many pennies can you put into a empty piggy bank?

No. 4 - only one, after that the piggy bank won't be empty...

A place of learning, teachers there aren't,
I like childrens money,"you bastard" they chant,
At the expense of others, I chase my wealth,
All my little kids, are not in good health.

What am I?

Been a long time since I saw this thread, here's a few easy ones to start the ball rolling.

P.S I believe i posted a very drunk message a while back that was deleted. Sorry to the Mods

1:What is the beginning of eternity,
The end of time and space,
The beginning of every end
And the end of every race?
What am I???

2:Dharam turns off the light in his bedroom. The light switch is twenty feet from the bed, but he still manages to get into his bed before it is dark. How does he do it?

3: Count every " F" in the following sentence (What could be easier than that?):

Finished files are the result of years of scientific study combined with the experience of years.

The following sentence is 'What could be easier than that?' so the answer is really zero. However the other sentence has six f's in it.

4: What number, when added to the number three or multiplied by it, gives the same result?

I think the answer that is normally given to this is zero, but that doesn't work as 3 + 0=3, and 3 x 0=0. There is no number that can achieve the riddle.

4: What number, when added to the number three or multiplied by it, gives the same result?

4: Answer 1.5 - (3 + 1.5 = 4.5), (3 x 1.5 = 4.5)

1. In your clustered sock drawer you know what socks you possess. The lights have blown in the house and you need to pick out a pair of matching socks for your night shift. In the drawer you know there are 6 black socks, 4 brown socks, 8 white socks, and 2 tan socks, how many socks would you have to pull out in the dark to be sure you had a matching pair?

2. Bertha had caused absolute chaos in a small town one day. She took the lives of dozens of people with no show of remorse. Known as the culprit of these deaths why did she not get put in jail?

3. What am I?

If you take away the whole of me some will still remain.
