How did the policeman instantly know it was the milkman?
I was trying to give others a chance before I flex my logic skills.....John was the only man in the house. John is the milkman because the cop noted that the Lawyer and the Doctor were both females.......

I personally think that the women set John up and it was the Doctor that killed the dead person, and the lady that's the Lawyer just happen to be present for "credibility"

Got one...

An old man walks into a Restaurant. He orders albatross soup, takes one taste of it, then walks out back and shoots himself in the head.

Why?

Got two more for you:

1. A man is found laying on the floor of his apartment. The doors and windows are ALL locked from the inside. How did he die? Why did he die? Who killed him? (Yes, it was a murder.)

2. A man is found hanging by the neck by a noose in the center of a TOTALLY empty room. There are no windows and the door is locked from the inside. How did this happen?

PM for hints if you don't know. (#1 is my all time favorite)

that a day follows a day.
But there is a place where yesterday
always follows today!

The King is about to die. He sends messengers throughout the land seeking for the 3 smartest people. Finally 3 are found. He gives them a task to see which one is the wisest. He tells them, "I will seat you in a triangle so that each of you faces the other two. Then I will blindfold you and paint either a red or a green dot on each of your foreheads. When I remove the blindfolds each of you must raise your hand if you see any green dots, i.e. 1 or 2. As soon as you have figured out what color your own dot is, lower your hand and tell me."

So he seats them, blindfolds them, and then paints a green dot on all three foreheads. When the blindfolds are removed, all three hands go up. After a long pause, one hand comes down and the man says, "Your highness, I have a green dot."

How did he know?
