You're in a magical bathroom and the only way things can get in and out is by an open door. You decided to have a bath so you turn on the tap and shut the door, the handle breaks. You then turn the bath knob and it breaks. Water begins to poor in endlessly. How do you save yourself?
Where do winds always blow from the south? (This one is so damn easy)
What can run, but never walks. Has a mouth, but never talks and has a bed but never sleeps? (First one i got wrong Sad )
Last one for the day: A man and his son are in a horrific car accident. The father, in appalling condition is flown to the hospital by a helicopter. The son, in a more stable state is taken by car. Upon arrival, the nurse immediately goes up to the boy and assesses he needs an operation. 10 minutes later the doctor comes into the room, examines the son and states, "sorry i cannot operate, this is my son!" How is this possible?

First person to get all 4 correct will be proclaimed todays winner. This is all about honour people so don't google the answer. To be honest i got 3/4, so they can't be too hard.
1. Seems odd, incomplete, or misinformed... because you say that it's a magical room and "the only way things can get in and out is by an open door" so the water should turn off when you closed the door - because the ONLY way things can get in (the water) is by the open door... but nothing is perfect in the world--let alone Magical bathrooms...
I'd try this:
Pull the plug to let the water drains out normally, use the handle from the tap to open the door. Leave the door open and take a bath, if someone walks in on me smile and ask they return when I'm done.


2. the north pole (no other direction for it to come from)

3. A river. (can run, has a mouth, and a bed, yet never sleeps)

4. The doctor is the biological father of the 'son' who was out with his step-father (or vis versa, since extended and altered families are common now) OR the 'appalling condition' the father was in didn't apply to his medical condition and they brought him to the hospital by helicopter due to a different emergency.
Well, one, pull the plug on the tub.

North Pole.

A river.

The doctor is the grandfather of the youngest.

Turn the tap back off.... that or open the drain.
Not bad, but we don't have a winner yet.

Two possible answers. He could have two "fathers" via a gay couple. Or one of the fathers could be his pastor from church or something like that.
