Minute mysteries are micro chronicles where you have to try and solve the riddle. They are called minute mysteries because they are a bit more complex than your average riddle.

1. In the old West a man rides into town on Friday. He stays for three days, and leaves on Friday. How can this be?
2. There is a man walking down the road dressed entirely in black. There are no lights on anywhere and no moon. A car with no lights comes down the road and manages to avoid the man. How?
3. A father and son are in an auto accident. The father dies and the son is rushed to the hospital in critical condition. The doctor looks at the boy and says, “I can’t work on him, he’s my son.” How can this be?
4. You are in a cabin with four walls all facing south. There is a bear outside. What color is the bear?
5. You walk into a room with only one match. You must light a lantern, a gas stove, the pilot light of a water heater and a fire in a fireplace. What do you light first?
