Fill the five, dump three into the three, leaving two in the five. Empty the three. Dump the two left in the five into the three, leaving an empty five. Fill the five again and top off the three leaving four gallons in the five gallon bucket.

That reads like "who's on first."

You find yourself on an island with only two villages. You've heard that one village is inhabited by people who tell only truth, and another one - by people who always lie. You come to a fork in the road that leads to either one of these villages and meet an aborigine. You want to get to the truth-teller village. You are allowed to ask the guy you met only one question, but you do not know who he is...

What question do you ask?

I'd ask, "Which road goes to your village?" A liar would point to the truth-telling village, an honest villager would point also to the truth-telling village.

You would be correct. Play on.

I am weightless, but you can see me. Put me in a bucket, and I'll make it lighter. What am I?

A hole!

i am in the sky but also in the ground. When you study me, no matter how long, I will always end with an F. I may be in your yard but not in your house. What am I?

I give up.

a leaf

Parjay · Jan 30, 2015

I love it but why can't leaves be in the house?

DVPremo · Jan 30, 2015

Ok Coyote, You're up.

What word starts with and "e" but only has one letter.

Duckster · Jan 31, 2015

I'm going to say "envelope"?

DVPremo · Jan 31, 2015

Wow, that was quick. Go ahead Duckster.

Duckster · Jan 31, 2015

From the beginning of eternity
To the end of time and space
To the beginning of every end
And the end of every place.
What am I?

Four wings I have, which swiftly mount on high,
On sturdy pinions, yet I never fly;
And though my body often moves around,
And, like a mother who, breaks her infant's bread,
I chew for man before he can be fed.
