Ok here is one

One day a man went to saint Ives
he said he had 7 wives
each wife had 7 kids
each kid had 7 cats
each cat had 7 kids
each kid had 7 mice
each mouse had 7 men
each man had seven dogs each dog had 7 wives
each wive had seven mistresses
each mistress had the same husband
this husband had a dog
the dog was with him twenty four seven

How many were going to saint Ives?

One, the man. Is that right?

by **GoMulchGo** Mon Jun 09, 2008 8:34 pm

One person. You said he went to St. Ives, not his family.

I have a riddle.

Usually today comes after yesterday and before tomorrow. In this place tomorrow comes first, then today, then yesterday. What is this place?

Oh oh oh! here's one! (No answering H, you know this one)

Ok, so Bill was off hiking in the Canadian mountains and was overtook by evil fairies. They knocked him unconscious and dragged poor Bill to their Evil Fairy Lair.
When Bill came-too, he was tied to a tree above two giant vats of water and oil.
The Evil-Fairy King said, 'You must say one thing. If it is true, we shall boil you in water. If it is false, we shall boil you in oil. You have 10 minutes.'

What should Bill say?

I'm just guessing but is it in the dictionary?

by **Sofie** Thu Jun 12, 2008 7:34 pm

Today isn't before yesterday in the dictionary, is it?

by **GoMulchGo** Thu Jun 12, 2008 7:37 pm

The dictionary is in alphabetical order.
