Nitram and his mother, Mrs. Rendrag, did the dishes after dinner. “Now that we’re finished with the dishes,” Mrs. Rendrag said, “let’s do the STOP AND SNAP.” These words “stop” and “snap” don’t make sense. Can you make a simple letter change to figure out what she actually said? Can you do something similar to deduce their real names?

I have a problem. I have 4 rows of 3 stamps, as you see in the picture.  However, my stamp album only has room for 3 rows of 4 stamps.  Life is challenging at times, isn’t it!  Can you make 1 continuous tear along the perforations so theses stamps will fit in the album? 

What is the only 2-digit number where the product of its digits equals the sum of its digits? E.g. could it be 37?  3×7=21.  3+7=10.  These don’t match, so it’s not 37.  What is it then? 

Is this possible?  Or have we lost our marbles? 

Hold a pencil in each hand.  Close 1 eye.  Can you bring the pencil points together so they touch? 

This one is trickier than you think!

Set the deck of cards on the table.  The spectator can cut the deck anyplace he’d like.  Without touching the cards, you’ll be able to tell what card he cut to!  Is this possible, or is it a bunch of huey? 

Can you make 1 coin equal $1? Can you make 2 coins equal $1? 3 coins?  4?  Etc. up to 10 coins equaling $1?
