There is a frog, he is sitting dead in the middle of a round island. If he swims north, the distance to the mainland is 20 metres. If he swims south, the distance to the mainland is 23 metres. If he swims east or west, the distance is 40 metres. Which way does he swim?


3.
I sleep by day, I fly by night. I have no feathers to aid my flight.


4.
What five letter word, no matter how you pronounce it,
is always pronounced wrong?


5.
A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman, but the bus driver had to go on a long bustrip that would last a week. The girl, an attractive girl named Sarah seemed to return his feelings. Before he left, he gave Sarah seven apples. Why?


6.
David was the world record holder for 50 m sprints, he was out for a walk when it started to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How did he do it?

3. A bat

4. Wrong.

6. He was bald.

I'll think more about the others.

1. Ostrich - can't fly.

2. Frog is dead so he ain't swimming anywhere.

I can run but not walk. Wherever I go, thought follows close behind. What am I?

I'm the part of the bird that's not in the sky. I can swim in the ocean and yet remain dry. What am I?
