A Riddle.

[ktlou]

A man lives on the 25th floor of a building. When he goes to work in the morning he gets in the lift and goes all the way to the ground floor.

When he comes home at night, he gets in the lift, goes to the 10th floor and then walks the rest of the way up the stairs.

Why?

[bookwormer]

He's a dwarf and can't reach the higher buttons.

[mike b]

Because while he was scuba diving he was scooped up by a fire-fighting aircraft and dropped onto a forest fire?

[whitehill]

He is a dwarf - 10th floor is the highest button he can reach

[kempie]

He froze water in the bucket and stood on the resulting block of ice, enabling him to loop the noose around his neck.

[ktlou]

Hmmm, think you might have the wrong riddle kempie!!

Mike b and Kempie - I feel like I'm in the twilight zone! Did I miss something?

Sorry to confuse you, Athena... I think (?) we're just playing a variation of Zen Conundrums - two riddles for the price of one. Cf: What do you get if you cross a sheep with a kangaroo? Answer: Bloody great holes in the skirting board. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you...
