An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons,
but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them
a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill
their living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough
to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not
fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so
he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man
bought?
Prof might have guessed you'd know that one, i'll have to rack my brains for next one now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With pointed fangs it sits in wait,
With piercing force its doles out fate,
Over bloodless victims proclaiming its might,
Eternally joining in a single bite.
What am I?
A stapler, vicious damn things that they are

3 sons are out shopping for there mother's birthday present when they see a hair drier in a shop window for £30 so they all chip in £10 each and pay the shop assistant. A short time later the shop owner returuns and ask's "what happened to the hair drier in the window?", "just sold it for £30 not 2 minutes ago" said the assistant, "right" said the owner "that was reduced by £5 this morning, go run after the lads you sold it to and give them there £5 back". The shop owner gives the assistant 5 pound coins and sends him off. As the assistant catch's up he's trying to work out how to devide the 5 coins up equilly between the 3 lads, so he decides to put 2 pound coins in his back pocket and give the lads the remaning 3 pound coins.
Now consider this, the 3 lads paid £10 each for a hair drier that originally cost £30 (3 x 10 = 30) the assistant was told to give them £5 back (30 - 5 = 25) but the assistant keeps £2 for him self and gives the lads £3 which means the lads payed £9 each. If £9 x £3 = £27 + £2 (that the assistant kept for himself) = £29 what happened to the other pound?
TWENTY FIVE POUND ARE STILL IN THE TILL AND FIVE ARE NOW OUT OF THE TILL, I.E THREE IN THE LADS POCKETS AND TWO IN THE SALESMANS POCKET! SO IT ADDS UP TO THIRTY.......
