how about this:

I am one simple word, but I mean different thing
One of my meanings brings great forceful swings
The other of me, may have curve, like the first.
But only one meaning can help quench a thirst.
One of my meanings will often bring cheers.
Either of them could hold a few beers.

 

[0zz0]

this one really only works verbaly but ill try it anyways

You are driving a bus and you make 3 stops. The first stop 3 people get on 1 gets off. 2nd stop 4 people get on 5 get off. 3rd stop 5 people get on no one gets off.

ok How old is the bus driver.

 

[Driftlight]

I'm driving it, so I'd say 17.

Have the chicken eat the grain and the dog eat the chicken

 

[Driftlight]

Bring the chicken across, then go get the dog. Leave the dog, and take the chicken back. Then take the grain across, and leave the chicken, Then go back and get the chicken.

Often murmurs, never talks,
It has a bed but never sleeps.
It has a mouth, but never eats.

Pick out the death one and swallow it before anyone can read it, the guard will think you picked freedom and let your ass go.

The one I posted a few pages back now... heres a good one however..

The Missing Dollar

Three friends check into a motel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room.

A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the 3 friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day!

Now, each of the three friends gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????

 

[thewurm]

The dollar didn't go anywhere. The three friends only think that they payed $27 ($9 each) to the motel, but they actually payed part of that to the bellhop.


to clarify: $25 to the motel + $2 to the bellhop + $3 back to the friends = $30

Incorrect. Its *fact* that they each paid $9 ($27) total.

Its again *fact* that the bell hop pocketed $2.

i think its just the wording at the end of the riddle. it should be worded like this: the ladies get the 3 bucks back = 27$. and the hotel dude gets the 2 which then makes it 25$, which is how much its supposed to cost.

the wurm is right

 

[Maskirovka]

yeah...you shouldn't be adding the $2 to the $27...you should be subtracting it.
