A private airplane is carrying three Americans, two Germans, and one French. It crashes over the border of California and Mexico. Where will you bury the survivors, in Mexico, or in California?

HA!

A rooster lays a egg on the peak of the roof of a barn and both sides are sloped the same. The wind is blowing against side "A." Will the egg roll down side "A" or side "B?"

When those survivors are buried, several years later, they will be buried in their countries of origin. Except for one guy from America, who went to Bermuda on a vacation and died there.

Re: Riddle me this

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?

One is one's born-kin, the other is one's corn bin.

I still hate you. :p

One has claws at the end of its paws, and the other has a pause at the end of its clause.
