Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes.
Finally, she hangs him.
But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together.

What did he put in the barrel?

There is a town in Texas where 5% of all the people living there have unlisted phone numbers. If you selected 100 names at random from the town's phone directory, on average, how
many of these people would have unlisted phone numbers? :shrug:
monk, what about it?

correct again....
here's one for the aftershower.... LOL
A horse travels a certain distance each day. Strangely enough, two of its legs travel 30 miles each day and the other two legs travel nearly 31 miles. It would seem that two of the horse's legs must be one mile ahead of the other two legs, but of course this can't be true. Since the horse is normal, how is this situation possible? :shrug:
anyone?

okay, what happened to da easy questions???
I don't really have any clue on this one, except maybe it has something to do with the horse's ability to have an assymetric gait??? Maybe two legs work harder than the other two, like during a gallop, thereby making two legs actually travel farther over a distance. It's okay, you can laugh at me, I can handle it.

do his legs travel 30 miles away from the starting point?
if so....no clue, if not, he's walking in a circle, like horsey rides or something
the inside legs wouldn't have to work quite as hard.

BahamaMama, a circle.... you are correct again.
