    I understand that there is one puizzle still to be solved but I would like to post it here in lieu of Lateral thinking puzzles, I will not be able to answer it immediately so I will be sending the solution to scissors.

    A man is found dead in a field. He is clutching a broken match. What happened?

    Kbahr's puzzle : He and a number of other passengers were making a balloon trip in an attempt to flee a country. The balloon had to lose weight to stop it from crashing. He drew the short match and had to jump?

    I was hoping this thread had not been closed!
    It took me a while, but I have some new Lateral Thinking Puzzles:

    Let's get started!

    A merchant has 21 sacks of corn. Seven full, seven half full, and seven empty. He wants to divide them equally among his three sons.
    How can he do this--without transferring any portion of corn from sack to sack--so that each son will have not only an equal quantity of corn, but also an equal number of sacks?
    (**There are 2 possible solutions**)

    He gives the first and second son 3 full sacks, 1 half full sack, and 3 empty sacks. The 3rd son gets 1 full sack, 5 half full sacks, and 1 empty sack. This will give them each 3 1/2 sacks of corn and 7 sacks.

    Wow--That was fast!
    I figured it would be you or Scissors.

    So--what about the second solution? There is another.

    Oh, I didn't realize you wanted both. I didn't give it any more thought once I found the one and I don't have time now. I'll probably get it for you tomorrow if nobody beats me to it.

    Have a good night!

    Son 1 = 3x full - 1x half - 3x empty
    Son 2 &3 = 2x full - 3x half - 2x 3mpty

    Well mbeliever--I knew you would know both--I just thought I heard some scissors snipping a while ago.
    And, I was correct! There you are! :)

    I have another for you clever people.

    How can you share two apples between two fathers and two sons while giving each a whole apple?

    Well, it is quite obvious...you guys are too smart for my little quizzes!

    I shall leave you with a riddle:

    It starts with the same letter that it ends with, and there are two more of the same along the way, a pair of another, one each of two others, just to make you smile.
    What is the word?

    Have not posted here in awhile and I would like to start doing it again. Is there any types of puzzles people like?, the lateral thinking is too complex sometimes so when i do I will be making them simple.
    Along with that reintroduction goes the rules I would to restate.
    The biggest one is not to be crude, nor rude
    Second, if you post one, message me the answer so when I am checking on them I know the answer(I will not look at the answer unless I know it or it is the end of the day)
    Next, post your reply in a timely manner.
    Last, a puzzle needs to be solved before the next one answered.
    You can post a multiple question but all parts have to be answered

    Here is a simple one that may have been asked before but should be revived.
    I will give the solution as an example
    What gets wetter as it drys

    A. A towel.


    Now here is one that was asked and answered but i will ask it again, please if you read the answer do not spoil it
    You are free to ask questions, also, this answer was copied and pasted from the net so do not google the answer.
    The honor system applies here

    A man comes up to the border of a country on his motorbike. He has three large sacks on his bike. The customs officer at the border crossing stop him and asks, “What is in the sacks?”

    “Sand,” answered the man.

    The guard says, “We’ll see about that. Get off the bike.”

    The guard takes the sacks and rips them apart; he empties them out and finds nothing in them but sand. He detains the man overnight and has the sand analysed, only to find that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags. The guard releases the man, puts the sand into new bags, lifts them onto the man’s shoulders and lets him cross the border.

    A week later, the same thing happens. The customs officer asks, “What have you got?”

    “Sand,” says the man.

    The officer does another thorough examination and again discovers that the sacks contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to the man, and the man again crosses the border.

    This sequence of events repeats every day for the next three years. Then one day, the man doesn’t show up. The border official meets up with him in a restaurant in the city. The officer says, “I know you’re smuggling something and it’s driving me crazy. It’s all I think about. I can’t even sleep. Just between you and me, what are you smuggling?”

    What is the man smuggling?
