For riddle and puzzle lovers on a lazy Sunday, please add your own.
This five letter word sounds the same if you remove the first letter. It sounds the same if you remove the third letter. It sounds the same if you remove the last letter. And it sounds the same if you remove all three together. What is it ?

A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape? |

I am something people love or hate. I change peoples appearances and thoughts. If a person takes care of them self I will go up even higher. To some people I will fool them. To others I am a mystery. Some people might want to try and hide me but I will show. No matter how hard people try I will Never go down. What am I? |

Four people must cross a small bridge to escape certain death from the monster that is chasing them. The bridge only holds two people at a time. It is very dark and they have only one torch that must be used to cross safely.
A can cross in one minute
B in two minutes
C in five minutes
D takes eight minutes to cross.
When two people cross together they must go at the slowest pace. How can they all cross in 15 minutes or less before they are caught ?
