Yes...I wonder what would happen if a watermelon fell of a tree and killed someone when it hit their head...

Ha Ha! There aren't any watermelon trees (at least I don't think so...) but that does happen with coconuts.

Aye! That didn't last very long... lol

Another one:
Three kids from Maryland went for a walk. About a mile into the walk, they came to a deep, wide river. There was no bridge. They didn't have a boat or raft, or any materials to make one. None of them could swim. How did they cross the river?

If having problems, ask yes/no questions.

Does it matter that they are from Maryland? Because I have no idea where that is...

Nope :)

It might matter though if they were from Queensland or some other place like Venezuala. But they're not, so they are thus able to cross the river.

Perplexed?

They deffinately end up crossing? It's not one of those trick answers like "they were going for a WALK, not a sail or a swim, so they didn't cross" (OK bad example) the strawberry tree is a better example of what I mean.

Was there a ferry or raft already there? Because it says THEY didn't have a boat or a raft, not that there wasn't one...
