Three people check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellboy $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn’t know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 as a tip for himself. Each guest got $1 back: so now each guest only paid $9; bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. And $27 + $2 = $29 so, if the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?

This is a riddle I made up and a true story. I was doing 90 days at a local correctional facility and because I was new, short and skinny, I was put in the “single Man” wing. Each man had a cell to himself.
Twice a day, 1/3 of the inmates were aloud out of their cells to play cards with other inmate, or whatever. There were 32 cells.
One day books were being handed out and I said to the guard:
Each day you let out 1/3 of the inmates. First, cells 1 though 10, Next, Cells 11 through 21. Last, cells 22 through 32. 1 through 10 is 10 people. 11 through 21 is 10 people and 22 through 32 is 10 people, but all 32 got out. How?
He looks at me a while and says, “You’re going to be here for a while aren’t you?”
I said, “I think you’re on the wrong side of the bars.”
You’d be amazed at how many people are dumbfounded!

11 to 21 and 22 to 32 is 11 people each. You have to include number 22 when you count the number of people. 11 to 21 is 11, but 11 plus 10 = 21 because youre adding 11 to 10, and not the same as counting 11 trough 21, because you’re counting 11 as 1 unit instead of adding 10 to it.
That really did almost confuse me but I got it.

Did you know that 10 + 10 = the same as 11 + 11?

Salesman. Hello, young man, is you mom home?
Little Johnny. No sir, she up stairs in the shower.
Man asked if hid dad was around.
Little Johnny. No sir, he’s up in the shower with my mom.
Salesman is getting annoyed. Well, do you think they’ll be down soon?
Little Johnny. I doubt it sir. My dad asked me to get him some Vaseline, but I gave him crazy glue.

Brain? Worked for a holding company that invited a pure bread Chines man over for some network training. Learned how to speak English by hanging out at an airport. Simply could NOT pronounce my name correctly. Always switched the I for an A. Brain, not Brian. I tell ya, I had a man crush, 'ya know?
Don’t think I ever said my real name, so where’d you come up with that? Or should I say, how? I mean I’m flattered…
True Story: Was working for the 2nd biggest office furniture MFG in the world, Herman Miller. We were replacing all the Windows 3.1 desktops with NT. 4.0. We were in Toronto Canada. At the time I lived in Michigan. Called a campground in the upper peninsula, saying I would be flying in from Canada, and wanted to know if the privacy gates could be opened if my plane landed late. Introduced myself as “Brian Adams.”
She was like, “OMG, no problem! Just call this number!..” Got there and there was a dozen 16 year old hotties asking “Who the hell are you?”
I was like, “You can still show you you’re titties, right?”
I’ve been asked if I was the real “Bryan” Adams. I’d say, no, I only sing in the shower, but your welcome to join me…
I’m now down to 5’2". I’d say, no, I lopped him off at the knees, stole his identity and forgot to take his wallet.
