A mind-bender...

OK, gang, this may not be a "word game" per se, more of a mind bender. (I love these)

A man leaves home, travels a short distance, and turns left. He travels a bit more, turns left again. Travels a short distance and again turns left. He's heading back home and sees 2 men in masks waiting for him. Who are the two men?

if home is home base in baseball? then he is running to 1st base, 2nd base , 3rd base and back to home where those two guys are in equipment. ???

Mornin' sweetie

Acutally it has 5 mistakes.... the 4 spelling errors and the fact that they make the sentence incorrect. = 5 overall

I've got another one for you, BabyRider....

Where is the only place that you can stand in the United States, look due south, and see Canada?

If it's not the continental U.S., I'd have to say Alaska...but that seems too obvious...*thinking*... :yh_think

dingDINGdingDINGdingDING....give the girl a CEEEGAR!

Standing in Detroit, looking due south, you are gazing across the Detroit River at the lovely city of Windsor, Ontario, due to this funny little bend in the River. Nowhere else in the United States is this possible - Alaska is all west of Canada, not north; New England is east.
