What has a mouth that never talks? Flows but never walks? :PSMR-Venom
River His cousin is his wife, so he goes insane and kills himself? That's probably what I'd do if I had just learned my long lost cousin, my wife, and my house were destroyed all in the same day.

Oh, you're close enough :P

His cousin is his wife, and she just figured out that she was his cousin. She called him from her office and told him to meet her. His father in law figured out and burned the house, and went to the resturaunt instead. He got home, and realized his wife was dead and his house was burned. Since she was the main income in the household, he had no money, so he killed himself.

Wait a minute...

"He jumps and his car and drives off a cliff"

Is that sentence properly structured? Or are we missing information? You're saying he jumped in the air... and the car magically drove off the cliff in the process?

Don't overanalyze, it's late, and you got it.

You probably didn't know you got it when you wrote this post, so it's alright

How in the world were you supposed to conclude that from the information given? :P

That just seems so incredibly random.

One mroe brutally hard one, then I'm done.

Angry and hungry are two words that end in '-gry'. There are three words in the English language. What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means and everyone uses it every day. Look closely and I have already given you the third word. What is it?

This one is very possible, but it's really tough.

You're telling me. I'm not sure I believe that's the answer honestly. I mean when you told the riddle you describe "she" as a "he"... I was, like I said, goofing off. :|

All right, here's a good one. Apparently you have psychopathic tendencies if you get it right. :P

A man is attending his father's funeral, and during the process of the funeral, he met a woman about his age. During the conversation that ensued, he finds out that this woman does quite a lot of business with his family and that they have a lot in common. They hit it off very well, and quickly become friendly towards each other. He neglects to get her phone number or any other contact information, however.

The next day, the man kills his uncle. Why?

Yeah, I wrote that version myself because the version I saw I felt was deficient in terms of not really giving you enough information to know definitively what the answer is.

Outrace the second? Is this one of those things where you didn't say second "place" and so I have to assume you mean a second as in a second in time? Maybe you beat the record for the race? Or maybe you are traveling through time or something...

A man goes to work every day at a tall office building.

He takes the elevator to the 23rd floor every day, then takes the stairs up to the top floor, where his office is, floor 30.

The only time he takes the elevator up to the top floor is when it's raining outside.

why is this?

Because he's a midget, and can only reach the top numbers when he has an umbrella, which he has when it's raining.

Three guests check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn't know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 for himself.

Now that the guests have been given $1 back, each has paid $9, bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. If the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?

This one is extremely hard:

The thieves spent 6 hours in the home of Ted Duda. At first they searched the house, trying to find where he hid his huge diamond, valued at half a million dollars.
Then they tried beating the information out of him. They fled at dawn, fearing detection.
Fatally hurt, Duda crawled to his desk and typed a note to his partner, John Madden. In a desperate race to type it before he bled to death, he near blindly typed his death note.

It read:

John -- four men tried to make me tell where I had hidden the diamond. At first they looked through the house, raving like madmen. Then, in desperation, the barbarians split open the cat! When all failed, they beat me, but I did not tell. I'm dying. The diamond The diamond is hidden in the vane."

"Duda died this morning," Inspector Winters told Dr. Haledjian. "We have his murderers, but not the diamond."
The inspector handed Haledjian a copy of the death note. "We took down the vane, the weathervane, a ****, but there was nothing inside it," the inspector said, "We're still searching the house."
Haledjian read the note and said, "You also failed to find the body of the cat, but you did find a broken barrel of liquor."
"Why, yes," said the inspector. "The thieves were throrough. They broke the barrel and every bottle in Duda's little wine cellar."
"How many walking sticks did Duda own?"
The inspector looked puzzled. "One."
"It must be hollow," said Haledjian. "You'll find the diamond inside it."

The inspector found the diamond, but how did Haledjian know?

$25 to the hotel.

$3 to the guests.

$2 to the bellhop.

= $30.

The $2 the bellhop has should be subtracted from the $27, not added.

You come across a door you know you must enter, but the door is sealed. Across the top of the door is writen in a different language from your own. You can see it says "Speak, friend, and enter." What do you say?
