Michael stared through the dirty soot-smeared window on the 32nd floor of the office Building. Overcome with depression he slid the window open and jumped through it. It was a sheer drop outside the building to the ground. Miraculously after he landed he was completely unhurt. Since there was nothing to cushion his fall or slow his descent, how could he have survived the fall?

You will no doubt have heard it before anyway....
"First think of a person who lives in disguise,
Who deals only in secrets and tells nothing but lies,
Next tell me what's always the last thing to mend,
Not found in the centre but at the end of the end?
And finally give me the sound often heard,
During the search for that hard-to-find word.
Now string them together, and answer me this,
Which creature would you be unwilling to kiss?"
:P

On a dark night Shaun and Ninastar were sitting together. Shaun was watching a movie while his wife Ninastar was reading a mystery book. Suddenly the power went out and Shaun decided to go to bed, but strangely Ninastar kept on reading.
There was no artificial light around, Ninastar kept on reading.
How come?
Shaun
27-01-2013, 02:16 AM
it was an audiobook? idfk
Benjamin
27-01-2013, 02:22 AM
No. Because then she would be listening, not reading.
Ramsay

its a mystery how she can continue to read
No I'm pretty sure my answer's right Ben
