yea right....

this one:

There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done. Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?

u r correct, he can tell what he wants coz he is not mute :) ...only blind..


this one:

A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape?

well, tell me what is this one..

of no use to one
Yet absolute bliss to two.
The small boy gets it for nothing.
The young man has to lie for it.
The old man has to buy it.
The baby's right,
The lover's privilege,
The hypocrite's mask.
To the young girl, faith;
To the married woman, hope;
To the old maid, charity.

I go around in circles,
But always straight ahead
Never complain,

the answer is 'yes', by adding an 'a' .... it becomes 'ayes'.... which means lots of yes (commonly used in parliament voting.. i.e. no. of 'Ayes' and 'Nays')
