1...If it takes six men one hour to dig six holes, how long does it take one man to dig half a hole?

2...A farmer has seventeen sheep. All but nine of them die. How many sheep does he have left?

3...You walk across a bridge and you see a boat full of people yet there isn't a single person on board. How is that possible?

4...A boy is walking around in a carnival and he sees a single man in a booth. He walks up to the man and asks what the booth is for. "Well," says the man, "I can write your exact weight on this slip of paper. If I get it wrong, I pay you $20. If I get it right, you pay me $20." The boy looks around, and seeing no scales, agrees. 5 minutes later, the man has gotten $20 from the boy. How?

5...How many apples can you fit into an empty box?

6...Two mothers and two daughters went out to eat, everyone ate one burger, yet only three burgers were eaten in all. How is this possible?

Fly.........


yes you can, its a phrase used in Golf, when the score between two players, for a hole is "tied, drawn", or otherwise

(I think)

but that isn't the answer to this particular question!!
