Not much action in this section lately so here is
one to ponder over.
There are six eggs in a basket.
Six people take one egg each.
How can it be that one egg is left in the basket?

There was once a recluse who never left his home. The only time

they never came inside.
Then one stormy night, when an icy gale was blowing, he had a
nervous breakdown. He went upstairs, turned off all the lights and
went to bed.
Next morning it was established he had caused the deaths of
several hundred people.
How could this have happened?

Lighthouse keeper?
He was a lighthouse keeper.
Looks like I was tooo slow thinking
C'mon, give me a break - you must have the same book.
Try this one then:
Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house
to arrest a suspected murderer.
They don't know what he looks like, but they do know his
name is John.
On entering the house they find a carpenter, a truck driver,
a car mechanic and a fireman playing cards.
Without even asking his name, they immediately arrest
the murderer - the fireman.
Why were they so sure they had the right person.

got his name on his uniform

The other three were women.
