Six Chains Five Links
A man brought a jeweler six chains that each had five links. He wanted the jeweler to join all six chains together to make one long, closed, circular chain.
The jeweler said, “It’ll cost you a buck for every link I open and close. You want me to join six chains, so the job will cost you six bucks.”
“No, no,” replied the man, “the job can be done for less.” Is he right, and if so, how can it be done?

Man Found Dead Next to a 13 Story Building
A man was found dead next to a 13 story building. The police say it was a suicide, but you say it was a homicide (someone killed him).
To prove this, you go to each floor on the building, open the window, and toss a penny out. You do this to each floor until you reach the 13th floor, open the window, and toss a penny out.
How does this prove it wasn’t a suicide?
Riddle AnswerBroken Monitor
Melissa, Jessica, Sandy and Nicole were working on the computer. Suddenly, I heard a crash and then lots of shouts. I rushed in to find out what was going on, finding the computer monitor on the ground, surrounded with broken glass! Sandy and Jessica spoke almost at the same time:
Jessica said, “It wasn’t me!”
Sandy said, “It was Nicole!”
Melissa said, “No, it was Sandy!”
Nicole said, “Sandy’s a liar.”
Only one of them was telling the truth, so who broke the monitor?
