- Wooden leg and a red head.
A match.Patch upon patch without any stitches, riddle me that and I'll give you my britches.
A head of cabbage. Where was Moses when the candle went out.
He was in the dark. What has no wings and yet it can fly.
The dust.It went to America and it stopped there and it came home because it did not go there.
A watch.What is the difference between A and B,
You open your mouth for A and you close it for B. One fine day in the middle of the night, two dead men got up to fight, two blind men were looking on, two cripples ran for the police, two dummies shouted horrow.
A lie.Headed like a thimble tailed like a rat many a thing you will think of before you think of that.
A pipe.- Collector
