  3. Which three numbers give the same result when they are multiplied as when they are added? (Alert: math)
  4. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!
  5. Below are clues to two homonyms (to, too, and two are homonyms). Figure out what pair of words the clues are describing Example: Rabbit fur = hare hair.
  6. What is this poem talking about?

  7.      "The beginning of eternity
         The end of time and space

         And the end of every place."
