The first is a math problem (NO CALCULATORS!) *= multiply. What is 134*129*12*3*54*32*0*12*45*54*45?

Okay, a plane crashes on the border of Canada and the U.S.A. Where do you bury the survivors? U.S. or Canada?

A rooster lays an egg on a ^ shaped roof. Will the egg break when it hits the point or will it roll right or left if the wind is blowing from the north?

An electric train is heading north and the wind is blowing south. Which way will the smoke blow? North, South, East, or West?

1. 0. Anything multiplied by 0=0. Fundamental basics.
2. Can you bury survivors? I thought that would be manslaughter...
3. That Rooster must have problems for it to be laying eggs.
4. Electric trains don't have smoke.

Heh, I'm not the inventor of those riddles, but I believe you got them all right. I've heard the rooster one before. Roosters don't lay eggs!

Okay, here's a few really good ones. Please try to answer without looking it up.

A man walks into a bar and asks for a glass of water. The bartender pulls out a shotgun and points it at him. The man says " thank you" and leaves. Why?

What am I?
It's more powerful than God. It's more evil than the devil. The poor have it. The rich need it. If you eat it, you'll die.
What am I?

The one who makes it sells it. The one who buys it doesn't use it. The one who's using it doesn't know he's using it.
What is it?

The answer to that one is nothing.

You're correct, Phoenix_Flyer!

Okay, that was a stupid one...

They're not the same pound. So, which one is heavier?
