TODAYS RIDDLE :

You want to send a valuable object to a friend. You have a box which is more than large enough to contain the object. You have several locks with keys. The box has a locking ring which is more than large enough to have a lock attached. But your friend does not have the key to any lock that you have. Note that you cannot send a key in an unlocked box, since it might be copied. How is this done?

Ole and Lena had married under none too happy circumstances, and their married life had not been anything to brag about either. But when, after they had been lived together for thirty five years, Ole went to the local judge to ask for an annulment, the whole of Middleton gasped with amazement.

“It’s like this, your Honor,” answered Ole, “I’ve just learned that Lena’s father never had a license to carry a gun.”

A few weeks later the blonde wife was back in the store and Riley asked her how she liked the coffee maker.

“Wonderful!” she replied, “However, there’s one thing I don’t understand.Why do I have to go to bed every time I want to make a pot of coffee?”

Management Training :

A group of junior-level executives were participating in a management training program. The seminar leader pounded home his point about the need to make decisions and take action on those decisions. “For instance,” he said, “if you had five frogs on a log and three of them decided to jump, how many frogs would you have left on the log?” The answers from the group were unanimous, “Two.” “Wrong,” replied the speaker. “There would still be five, because there is a difference between deciding to jump and jumping.”
