Easy! Lol!Here's another one: For some reason, this nutcase decided to marry off his daughter. He told her she is allowed to say one statement before she's married. If what she says is true, she marries Derek the Dull. If what she says is false, she marries Bob the Boring. What does she say to get out of this situation? Ar har...

I should probably tell you guys the answer. Um, she says "I will marry Bob." So if she marries Bob, then it's true. So because that statement has become true, she marries Derek. But since she said she'd marry Bob, marrying Derek would make the statement false, so she'd marry Bob. And so on and so on. It's a never ending cycle. She'd never get married because the father would be so confused he'd have a brain explosion.Here's another one:
I am a strange creature, for I satisfy women... I grow very tall, erect in a bed, I'm hairy underneath. From time to time A beautiful girl, the brave daughter Of some fellow dares to hold me Grips my reddish skin, robs me of my head And puts me in the pantry. At once that girl With plaited hair who has confined me Remembers our meeting. Her eye moistens.
