Ha !

I am at work now, and haven't got the time to read all the riddles in the thread, so here is one, please tell me if it has already been asked, and if it has, don't be mad at me, OK ?

"What object has keys that open no locks, space but no room, and you can enter but not go in ?"

------------------


The world is my oyster !
And now I have the knives to open it ...

Easy question for a programmer, that. Try this for size
.
If it takes 2 men 3 hours to dig a hole 10' by 10' by 10', how long would it take 5 men to dig the same hole?

The mathematical reply would be 72 mn (1 h 12 mn). What did I miss ?

Nope. Mathematicaly correct. However, read the wording of the question VERY carefully (this was used as a question on a management training course a friend of mine went on). That answer would make you a bank clerk. Think manager
