When I looked upon the flames of his passion,
And the coolness of her touch,
I knew tragedy could only come from their union.
And indeed, when they came together,
Darkness reigned upon the land.
And although they were soon separated,
Learning as they did that they were not for each other,
Still their passing regards for each other,
Left its impression upon all who had witnessed it.
And would be talked about for ages still to come.
The sun and the moon?
Yes, a solar eclipse.

Alright, here's a new one:
A man wanted to enter an exclusive club but did not know the password that was required. He waited by the door and listened. A club member knocked on the door and the doorman said, "twelve." The member replied, "six " and was let in. A second member came to the door and the doorman said, "six." The member replied, "three" and was let in. The man thought he had heard enough and walked up to the door. The doorman said ,"ten" and the man replied, "five." But he was not let in. What should have he said?
Three. There are three letters in the word "ten."
Nice one.

A man is six feet tall and muscular and well built. He weighs 30 pounds
how is that possible?
Uhm, he's either weighing something on a scale (is that the correct word, here?) like a bag with 30 pounds of sand, or he's on the moon or something.
right!! He was weighing something.

Still unanswered.

Four people are sitting around a campfire after a long day of walking, when one man comments: "You all do realize that around this campfire, the four of us include a mother, father, brother, sister, son, daughter, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle and a couple cousins? Strange, isn't it, my dear relatives by blood.".

With no unusual marriages, how is this possible?

What goes into the water red and comes out black?

What goes into the water black and comes out red?

I am taken from a mine, and shut up in a wooden case, from which I am never released, and yet I am used by almost everybody. What am I?

Anyone wanna try this one one more time?

When you stop and look, you can always see me. If you try to touch you cannot feel me. I cannot move, but as you near me, I will move away from you. What am I?

A smouldering piece of coal.

A lobster.

Can't be lead, because pencils use graphite... Coal? because that's what graphite is.

Alright how about this! The mother and father had 2 children a son and a daughter those 2 children have had sex to create unborn twins both a male and a female both in the sisters womb.. So that would make the mother and father aunts also and that would cover the niece and cousin problem as well!
