You are on your way to visit your Grandma, who lives at the
end of the valley. It's her birthday, and you want to give her the cakes
you've made.
Between your house and her house, you have to cross
7 bridges, and as it goes in the land of make believe, there is
a troll under every bridge! Each troll, quite rightly, insists that you
pay a troll toll. Before you can cross their bridge, you have to give
them half of the cakes you are carrying, but as they are kind trolls,
they each give you back a single cake.
How many cakes do you have to leave home with to make sure that you
arrive at Grandma's with exactly 2 cakes?

An archaeologist uncovers an ancient tomb, between the Tigris
and Euphrates rivers. Two, unclothed, long-dead bodies are found
in the tomb. One is an adult male, the other an adult female.
Both bodies are perfectly preserved, although dry and leathery with age.
The archaeologist takes one look and exclaims: "It's a miracle! I have
found Adam and Eve". How did the archaeologist know this? (Hint:
it has nothing to do with ribs).

The Pope has one but he does not use it. Your father has
one but your mother uses it. Nuns do not need one. Arnold Schwarzeneger
has a big one. Michael J. Fox's is quite small. What is it?
