Question

A man who lives in a tall block of flats, kisses his wife goodbye, and leaves for work. Half way down in the lift, the lift stops and all the lights go out. Five minutes later, the lights come on, and the lift continues to the ground floor.
The man gets out of the lift, and goes to the buiding supervisor, where he says, "My wife just died".

Why?

Alcazar...........and stop using fekkin' Google!

Which one, the little boy or the life support machine?

A man steps through the door of his home and immediately dies. Why?

He lived on the moon and wasn't wearing his space suit when stepping out through the door

Or he lived in numerous other places equally dangerous, or with dangerous things happening outside

Or because he didn't open the door first, and the internal injuries sustained walking through the door killed him.

Or because his house was on fire and he walked in.

OK, too easy.

A man lives on the top floor of a tall block of flats. One day, cleaning his windows, he leans too far, and falls through the window. He picks himself up, and continues, but with a bit more care. How?

Yep, he was on the balcony

A little boy, his father, and his grandfather are in a car accident, where the father and grandfather are killed outright

The little boy is rushed to hospital, but on arrival, after being readied for a life-saving operation, the surgeon takes one look at him and says: "I can't operate on that boy, he's my son."

Explain.

Posted in muppets the other night, but no answers so far

How can a man have mutually safe sex with three women with only two condoms?

Use both condoms on the first woman. Take off the outer condom (turning it inside-out in the process) and set it aside. Use the inner condom alone on the second woman. Put the outer condom back on. Use it on the third woman.

Ok, here's another one to think about, you can only use ONE word in to fill in all three spaces.

The ************ surgeon, was ************ to perform surgery, as he had **********.

Come on then, what is the ONE word you can use to make this a proper sentance?
