                     1.This is a most unusual paragraph. This writing may annoy you until you find out why it is so unusual, for you won't find a solution instantly. But don't go into a tailspin about it or go crazy, for it isn't that difficult. But you will admit that it is most unusual. This writing looks so ordinary that you might think that nothing is wrong with it. And, in fact, nothing is wrong with it. But it is unusual, and you must ask why. If you study and think about it, you may find out why, but you must do it without any coaching of any kind. No doubt if you work at it for long, it will dawn on you...who knows? So start to study it now, and try your skill at finding out what is so unusual about this writing. If you can do it in half an hour, you may claim an approach to wisdom, but if you can't do it in half an hour...          2.Something happened at 6th of May, 1978 at 12:34 a.m. what is it?          3. A man moved into a new house and decided he was tired after the journey and turned of all the lights and went to bed. The next morning he had killed 365 people how could this be? He does not sleep walk and he slept like a baby the whole night.                4.Can you think of a word in the English language that has 3 sets of consecutive double letters in it?                 5.The more you of them you take, the more you leave behind. What are they?                   6.How is it that a person born in Massachusetts, whose parents were both born in Massachusetts, is not born a U.S. Citizen? 

                  7.What word looks the same upside down and backwards?

                    8.A man was outside taking a walk when it began to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this happen?                    9.There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?  

               10.This puzzzle contains three errers - can you find them?

I don't like the font of the paragraph in the first post.  I can't read it!Embarassed

for the new house one: it was a lighthouse. he turned off the beam and a ship crashed, killing 365 people.

the Massachusetts one: it was in the 1600's, when Britain controlled the 13 American colonies. the person would be a British citizen.

the man in the rain one: he was bald, so he had no hair to get wet

the three errors one:

1. puzzles has an extra z

2. errors is spelled wrong

3. there are only two errors

the consecutive double letters one: bookkeeper

Well...I don't know what I'm completely supposed to be looking for (by errors, do you mean grammatical, or logical, or something else?), If each thought is a different riddle. I got a few in the minute I looked at it. 

  • Unfortunately, I couldn't get the first one...but I noticed a couple things.  I'll get back to you on that. 
  • The Massachusetts one, could it be before the U.S. declared a country?  While only the colonies existed?
  • Could the man walking in the rain have no hair?
  •  I didn't try any of the word ones, as they usually take longer.  I'll get back to you on those, too.

 Could it be simply because the text is bold Italic and has a small font (around 14) but still looks big?

SWIMS looks the same backwards or upside down.

 The more footsteps you take, the more you leave behind.
