The One with The Riddles

Festive season is just happy times, yeah! Being just around the corner, Christmas this year means quite a lot to me. First of all, it might just be the last Christmas i'm going to celebrate with the status of a university student. Secondly, I'll be meeting with some of my buddies back at hometown for a small gathering. It's been ages ago since i last saw them. Missed them so so much. This is why it's going to be a merry Christmas!

Since it's a happy times, i would like to give everyone a short story and some riddles. Some funny craps, illogical some of them, but indeed funny they are. I'll give you boys & gals the Questions today. The answers tomorrow. Hehehe....i feel so wicked now!!

First, the story.

The Sex Life of an Electron

One night when his charge was pretty high, Micro Henry decided to try to get a cute little coil to let him discharge. He picked up Millie Amp and took her for a ride on his Mega cycle. They rode across the Wheatstone bridge, around by the sine wave, and stopped in a magnetic field by a flowing current.

Micro Henry, attracted by Millie's characteristic curves, soon had her resistance at a minimum and his field was fully excited. He laid her on the ground potential, raised her frequency, lowered her capacitance and pulled out his high voltage probe. He inserted his probe into her test socket, connected them in paralell, and began to short circuit her shunt.

Fully excited Millie Amp exclaimed, "Mho, mho, mho." With his tube operating at it's maximum peak current and her coil vibrating from the current flow, she soon reached her maximum peak potential. The excess current flow had gotten her coil hot and Micro Henry started rapidly discharging and soon had drained off every last electron.

They fluxed all night trying various connections and sockets, until Micro Henry's bar magnet had lost all of it's field strength. Afterwards, Millie Amp tried self induction and damaged her solenoid. With his batteries fully discharged, Micro Henry was unable to further excite his generator, so they ended it all by reversing polarity and blowing each other's fuses.

*Warning: Yes, the story is arrange in technical jargons, and No, it's not funny at all.

Anyway, about the riddles, here goes nothing.

Q1. What does the word "benign" mean?

Q2. Who is a Cannibal?

Q3. What can make an Octopus laugh?

Q4. Why is Six afraid of Seven?

Q5. How many seconds are in a year?

Q6. What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back?

Q7. Why do elephants have trunks?

Q8. There are 10 Fish in a pond.....one of them dies......The level of the water rises....Why?

Q9. What is the difference betweem a teacher & a train conductor?

Q10. What has 3 heads, is ugly and smells bad?

There, you have it. Ten simple questions. Drop me the answers in the comment column if you know it, okay? Let me give you some hints. Some of the answers are really illogical. So don't think of correct answers, rather, crappy answers would be better. So, let's have some fun, okay? See you tomorrow for the answers. :P
