I know what my job is, The point has been made. You say I have a big head, And you're right, I'm afraid. So put me in my place, And then leave me alone. What I need most, Is someone to drive me home.

5) A headless man had a letter to write; It was read by a man who had lost his sight. The dumb repeated it word for word; And deaf was he who listened and heard. Solve this riddle. The letter in question is the letter 'O'. It is zero. The man had nothing to write. The blind could read nothing. The person who was dumb could repeat nothing. The deaf man listened and heard nothing.

Mysterious Death - A man is found lying dead, face down in the middle of the desert. He is wearing a backpack. His ribs are crushed. The post mortem shows that he died, suddenly, 2 months ago. Yet no one has crossed the dessert for 3 months. What happened?

Correct The man's plane was about to crash so he jumped from the plane. Unfortunately his parachute failed to open. He fell to his death in the desert.
