A man plans to kill his wife. After some time of planning he and his wife plan a snow skiingtrip up in the mountains. While they're skiing the man pushes his wife off the main trail into an unfinished trail where she falls to her death. When he reaches the bottom of the slope he contacts the police and declares his wife missing. After a search party finds his wife they let the man know and nobody suspects anything. When he arrives home however he is arrested as soon as he gets offthe plane. How did the police at home know that he intentionally killed his wife?

[QUOTE="Luminouslight"][QUOTE="Dante2710"]Two fathers and two sons sat down to eat eggs for breakfast. They ate exatly three eggs, each person had an egg. How is this possible?Dante2710

Each of them didn't eat 3 eggs, the group ate a total of 3 eggs.

you are incorrect sir

EDIT: ding ding, the guy above got it right.

Ah, then can you please change that to "Each of them ate exactly three eggs". It's a grammar error that threw me off. They is plural/group so the sentence is saying is that the group and not the individual ate three eggs.

there's no grammar error. Each one ate 1 egg.

Easy, he had 2 tickets book to the trip, but only one back.

Still no answer on my riddle. Here it is again:

Long time ago, in ancient (insert your favorite ancient country) lived a wise old man. But this man had many enemies. One of these enemies was the (lets say) emperor of the (lets say) city. The emperor hated the man, but he couldn't kill the old man for nothing - the people would be outraged (did I mention the wise old man also had many friends?). So he blamed the wise old man for a crime he didn't commit and decided to hold a trial - the wise old man would be presented with twoidentical jars- in one there would be a paper saying "LIFE", in the other - "DEATH". Which ever the old man picks would be his sentence - FINAL sentence. But the emperor was corrupt - he put a paper sying "DEATH" in both jars . One of his servants was a friend of the wise old man, so he told the old man about the emperor's cheating. How would the old man avoid certain death? (Suppose exposing the emperor as a cheater in not an option).

True story, btw.
