perplexing questions featured in the first part of

Question: Here is
one I'm stuck on and can't find an answer:
A frog is sitting on a bridge and decides to jump off, where is the frog
at when he jumps?
on the bridge would be before he jumps, and in the water would be after he
jumps, but when he actually jumps where is he? ....even in midair is after
he jumps..
Thanks,
Robert
Answer: I would suggest
as an answer that the frog is on the bridge. This is because the
physiology of the muscle requires time in which to act and Newtons first
law (I think – to every force there is an equal and opposite force)
requires there to be force from the bridge on the frogs legs until such
times as he is in the air – which is after he has jumped.
I hope that it is only the frog that appears to be suicidal and that
Robert has managed to cope without a solution to this puzzle!!!

Question: I was
wondering if you cold give me some help with this one
One of the most important asset of a good chemist is the ability to

carefully and solve the puzzle. (clue: think holiday.)

Answer: The answer to
the question is Noel. Because there is no L!
Michelle C.
Answer: If you look at
it closely, you’ll see that there is every single letter and number on the
keyboard of a computer, except L.
Say it a few times. No L. No L. Noel! If it was a holiday, then we can
draw the conclusion that this little puzzle comes to the conclusion of
“Christmas!”

Question:
I have a scrambled puzzle that my teacher gave me...:
Unscramble the following words, and tell how the 4 new
words are related:
The scrambled words are:
refry
ocean
abatsilo
emubrain
Now, what are the words, and how are they all related???
Please email your answer back to me!
Thank You
Kasi
Answer: It
seems the first and the third unscrambled words can be
"ferry" and "sailboat" respectively, thus, prompting us,
along with the second word "ocean" to a water-related
theme. But what can be the fourth word?..
Answer:
Kasi's question regarding four "words" to unscramble and
tell the relationship of the new word:
abatsilo.......I cannot find any such word online at
Merriam Webster; same with emubrain.
The other two:
ocean is canoe (relationship is obvious)
refry is fryer (relationship also obvious)
Hope this "halfway" helps.
