3. What has a neck but no head?
Spoiler


4. Is it possible for a man to chase tigers on horseback at 30 miles per hour?

I don`t know how to do the spoiler thingies, but I did them all in 18 seconds and have them correct (I believe).

Its easy to do spoilers-

Look on the left, there is a table " Quick Access " fifth down is a thingie " Insert : Spoiler " . click on it and you get a box, in which you type the spoiler text.


To read spoiler text, hightlight the black bar.
IE hold down the mouse, and drag along the text.
