| RIDDLE #1
A man had twelve toothpicks in front of him. He took one away. Now he had nine in front of him. How is this possible?
RIDDLE #2
What English word is nine letters long, and can remain an English word at each step as you remove one letter at a time, right down to a single letter. List the letter you remove each time and the words that result at each step. | |
