K, I'll contribute....

A woman taking a census happens along 2 men on a porch, one man is asleep. The woman asks the man who's awake a few questions and then proceeds to ask the man if he could tell her anything about the other man who is asleep.

He responds to her in this way: "Brothers and sisters I have none, this mans father is my fathers son"

Who is the sleeping man?

Ah, you stole mine - I tell it better!

Since the man has no siblings, "my father's son" is himself.  Since "this man's father" is himself, "this man" is his son.

Well done sir  :D

Here are some new ones. have fun

1.A bus driver was going down the street. He went past two stop signs without stopping, went by a red light, and turned left at a "No Left Turn" sign, yet didnt break any traffic rules. How?

2. There is a tunnel in the side of a hill. It is only big enough to hold one train, and has only one track. Two trains going the opposite direction entered the tunnel at exactly 8:00 and both left the tunnel on the opposite side wich they came in 3 min. later, with no collision. How?

3.There is a family with 6 boy children. Each boy has two sisters. How many children are there?

4. What has a mouth that never eats, has a bed but never sleeps, and runs all day but has no legs?

5.If you put a coin in a bottle and you put a cork on the bottle with the coin still in the bottle, how do you get out the coin without breaking the bottle or removing the cork?

6.Two mothers and two daughters went to the mall. They had $27 and split it evenly without using coins. How is this possible?
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

1.  The driver was walking.

2.  One came at 8am, the other at 8pm.

3.  Eight.  Six boys, two girls.

4.  A river.

5.  Through the hole you cut into the cork before putting it in the bottle, naturally...

6.  There were three people in total - a grandmother, a mother (grandma's daughter), and a daughter.  They each got nine bucks.

I thought you said these were new.  These weren't new when my parents were born...

By the way the answer I had was silence


How did Mark legally marry three women in Michigan, without divorcing any of them, becoming legally separated, or any of them dying?

This is ancient, but I'll toss it out there anyway...with a twist...

A boy and his father are riding in a car when it crashes.  The father is declared dead at the scene and the son is rushed to a local hospital.  In the operating room, the surgeon is about to begin trying to save his life, but stops, saying "I can't operate on this boy...he's my son..."

PS: the doctor is NOT his mother - he's male.

Long shot, but what ever. The boy and his father crashed into another car. In that car was a priest which the riddle referred to as "the father". The child's father survived the crash, unscathed, and is indeed the surgeon at the hospital his son was taken to.

Hmmm. Well I have heard that joke numerous times and the answer has always been his mother, but since you added your caveat, I'm not really sure. Can't wait to hear the answer...

Honestly, I think the two gay dads is a better solution to the one I have: the surgeon is the boy's godfather.  Upon the death of the father, he becomes the boy's father.  That's the actual purpose behind having godparents - someone to fill the shoes of the parents in the event they died an untimely death.  It's rather rare these days to really hold people to that - more people just pick some friend or co-worker or something, but in centuries prior, it was far more common for a parent to die before finishing raising a child.
