I think everyones probably heard this one, but...

1. You are in a house where all four walls face south. A bear walks past the window. What colour is it?

And some others...

2. A woman has five children, and exactly half of them are boys. How is this possible?

3. Take one from 19 to leave 20

4. What would you add to nine to make six?

5. There are two sheep standing in a field. One is facing north and the other south. How can they see each other without turning round?

6. What question can you never answer yes to, even though it's true? (there is more than one, but they have the same gist)

7. What question must you always answer yes to?

8. If a group of people contain a father, a mother, a son, a daughter, an uncle, an aunt, a sister, a brother, a niece, a nephew and two cousins, what is the smallest number they can be?
