Simple Riddles

I know you are sharp..try the following:

The 5 Riddles....

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SET OF FIVE RIDDLES....THE ANSWERS ARE AT THE BOTTOM.
RIDDLE  No.5  IS AMAZING. IT SHARPENS THOSE GENES IN YOUR BRAIN AND STALLS
ALZHEIMER'S FOR YEARS !!

1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three
rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of
assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that
haven't eaten in 3 years.. Which room is safest for him?

2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over
5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go
out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

3. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words
Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?

I know you are laughing.....been easy so far...OK...

4. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and grey when
you throw it away ?

5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly
you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and
plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it.. In fact,
nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. Study it and
think about it, but you still may not find anything odd... But if you
work at it a bit, you might find out.. Try to do so without any
coaching!

English language,
