ill be doing a few of these, and youll get points (noooo. im not copying other topics.....) winner with the most points gets a prize!!!!!

lets start off with a challenging one, hey?

A man died on March 5 of a certain year and was buried the previous day, March 4, of the same year. How is this?????

[Gen. Warthog]

He was killed in Asia *or someother country in the east, and flown to the U.S. to be buried.

Basically he was killed in a faster time zone, and buried in a slower time zone.

Nice.

[Kowboy]

That one was pretty easy though....i thought you said challenging?

[Gaggelini]

They might have buried him alive to

[polarbird111]

[Ratty]

Ok, the mining tunnel collapsed around him and BURIED him in rock, but he survived until the following day?

[Ratty]

yeah, polarbird is right!

SCOREBOARD:
polarbird111= 1


heres the next one:

A man ran from his armed pursuers. After looking around furtively, he jumped for the prison wall, climbed to its top, and jumped down on the other side. Made it! Then he set about looking for a police officer. Why, after the successful escape, did he he do that

[polarbird111]

Because he was a police officer and the armed people chasing him were convicts who had escaped from their cells?

EDIT: wait, better answer. He climbed into the jail to escape from the people chasing him, and needed a police man's help to get out.

yeah, your second guess was correct

SCOREBOARD:
polarbird111= 2

(i dont think u have alot of competition)

next one:

Frank, a track star, competed against George, who had a weak heart. George soon was two jumps ahead of Frank and eventually beat him. How?

[Gen. Warthog]

his pacemaker shocked him and he ran really fast.........or he just kept running keeping 2 jumps in front/

[Gaggelini]

George was a racehorse?

[Ratty]

nope, sry guys, none of those are right.

here are 2 clues:

Frank was very good at clearing hurdles
Did george expect to beat Frank? YES
