It wasn't raining in the village or on the way there. it was raining somewhere else.

knowing you Ian, it's a trick question. I say he was bald. Bald as an egg. An evil bald egg.
Ozone wins. Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaa.

NEXT BRAINTEASER: Can you think of one word in the English language that ends in the letters "E-N-Y"? (And "penny" is spelled P-E-N-N-Y, morons.)
Niether. It floats.
Mary goes to the store to buy apples, on the way there, she meets a girl named fred who is 4 years older than her, a boy named fred who is 4 years younger than her, and a hobo named fred who just ate a ham-and-toenail sandwich. If she had tuna for breakfast, and the time of day was 11:45, how many pennies do I have in my pocket?
William. He's a performing dog, see? He was walking on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon show and he was limping on three legs by the evening because he hurt his paw. He can skateboard, too! (Note: Before you bust my chops, I shamelessly stole this from someone else.)

NEXT BRAINTEASER: Imagine that you are trapped in a small room buried three miles underground. The room is about eight feet long by six feet wide, is made of tempered steel, and has no visible exits. The only things you have with you are a pack of playing cards, a roll of Butter-Rum Life Savers, three thumbtacks, and an extremely creased map of India. How do you escape?
You put the butter rum lifesavers in the middle of the room and wait, you hear a rumbling. There, bursting up from the middle of the floor is a great mole-man-mutant, knowing that their underground civilization depends on it's imports of butter-rum lifesavers, and knowing how their claws can pierce through almost anything up to titanium, you sucessfully lure the mole person into the room. You see that he collects the lifesavers dantily making sure each one is genuine. You grab the thumb-tack run to the center of the room, grab the mole and get him into a headlock, you take your thumtack and threaten to stab him in the nose if he doesn't do exactly as you say, and you throw in that if he does you'll let him keep the lifesaver. The mole-man agrees. He takes you up to the surface where you find yourself smack-dab in the middle of India, oh no! You keep walking through the steamy hot jungle and evetually find a village. Noone in the village speaks English and you see that they are simple people with little use for technology. You speak to the richest man in the village and see that he has the compass. You then challenge him to a game of cards to determine who wins. You end up winning the game and get the compass, but you give him the pack of cards to be a good sport. The man congratulates you and says in his own native tongue "May you be blessed by the Jelly of a thousand Buffalo" which somehow, accounting with the language and the dialect sounds like "I will slit your stomach across and rape your innards!" You run fast as you can with the compass and the map of india down the road, and find an abandoned car. You take the car and are cruising down through Bombay and after only 8 months of telemarketer slave labor you have enough to buy a plane ticket home.
What is the connection between the fabled book "The Necronomicon" and Norse Mythology?

Actually, you could just stop imagining you're trapped in that room. But you get an A for effort. Or… affort.
You build a cigar smoking robot, but it goes crazy, what do you do?
That's not a brainteaser. That… That doesn't even make much sense, really.

NEXT BRAINTEASER: Get out your physics books, kids! You are sitting in the back of a taxi holding a string tied to a helium-filled mylar balloon that you are taking to a friend's birthday party. It's raining, so all of the windows in the car are closed. When you get in the car and get all situated, the balloon is floating in mid-air, motionless, in the middle of the car. Suddenly, the driver hits the gas pedal. Which direction does the balloon move? Does the balloon move at all?
It would move to the back of the car, because the air inside the car is pushed back at the initial momentum of the car. After the air inside is up to speed with the car, the balloon stops moving.
Unless you're allergic to mylar and are unconscious by the time you get into the car, and thus would never know.
What is the one word in English that ends in "mt"?
Yeah… I'm not too good at thinking these up.

Actually, the balloon moves to the front of the car because the air pushed to the back by momentum is heavier than the helium in the balloon.

Correct! Because air is denser than helium, the air inside the car is rushes to the back of the car faster than the balloon when the gas pedal is pushed. You get a gold star.

NEXT (somewhat similar to the last one) BRAINTEASER: At the very same birthday party that you were headed to earlier, you tie a sturdy piece of rope to the bottom pedal of a bicycle. (God knows why. It's kind of late.) You then position yourself directly behind the bike. There are training wheels on the bike (a prank accessory from the birthday girl's wise-ass brother), so the thing won't tip over. When you yank on the rope, which way will the bike move, if at all?
I shoot a nearby jet-skier and steal his ride in order to save my own sorry hide.
You are locked in a room, and your best friend is locked in another. in both rooms, there are two levers on the walls, one black, one red. the door is locked tight, and there are no windows. you know that if you pull the black lever, you will die but your best friend will go free. If you pull the red lever, your best friend will die but you go free. If both of you pull the same lever, be it black or red, both of you die. you have to way to communicate with your friend, or see what they do.
how can you escape with both you and your friend's lives?
(please don't just BS your way out of this. The answer is pretty obvious, if you think along the right lines.)
(edit) The vent thing is one answer, but not the one I am looking for. lets see if anyone can get it.
(edit once more ) Bah fine. i was looking for someone to say something about a key. don't ask why, I'm just picky like that.

Well I think if you each pull a different lever you can both get out. O.o
there are five levers, you have to get them all to green or a massive ten-ton weight will fall right on top of you.
if you switch on, the two around it will change, too.
they are currently set like this
[x][ ][ ][X][ ]
[ ][X][x][ ][X]
if all the top are X then you die. end of story.
