| thought this would be fun
1) How would you rearrange the letters in the words "NEW DOOR" to make one word?
2) The maker doesn't want it, the buyer doesn't use it, and the user doesn't seet it.... What is it?
3) What is a five letter word that when printed in all caps, it can be read upside-down?
4) What do you throw out when you want to use it, but take in when you don't want to use it?
5) When asked how old she was, Suzie replied.... "In two years I will be twice as old as I was five years ago." How old is she now?
Guesses anyone? Some are simple. | |

| Thanks Dave! I figured out number 3 it's SWIMS. I looked at my keyboard and wrote down all of the letters that look the same upside down, WOMINXS. Took me a while to get swims, but hey, I'm at work so not much else to do!
Is #4 a yo-yo? And number 5 makes my head hurt! | |

Is #4 a yo-yo? And number 5 makes my head hurt! yep swims was the answer for #3, good job and #4 is not a yo yo keep guessing I really figure that #4 would have been the first one answered Hint: think about daves first answeres he was really close he was in the right frame of mind at that time | |
