    Oh my! See what late night combined with a glass of wine does to me? (lol)

    Forgive me J_9, I forgot to thank you too. :o Not sure you'll get this, but wanted to put it out there anyway.

    KISS,

    The words inside the triangle are:
    "Paris in the the spring"

    This is one of those brain tests, isn't it? I thought it was one of those play on words. You know, like:

    Wear
    _______
    Black


    (black underwear)

    Is that it?

    Anyone want to give this one a go?

    A king sits at a table with three glasses in front of him. Two of the glasses are full; one with rum and one with ale. What is the king's name?

    You make me laugh!

    I was thinking there were 2 "the"s, so, Paris in to the spring.

    Or maybe it was just the wine.

    All right, obviously I was effected by the wine.

    I've decided the king's name is Henry. :p

    The first ones were fairly easy, yes. Although the river stumped me for a minute. And the thing about the R's just flew over my head.

    There are 2 letter Rs in the word corner, 1 letter R in the word room, none in house and 1 in shelter.

    As for the king's name being Henry, think along these lines: Henry the eighth (King names with numbers).

    No, I get the R's now. I mean when I read it, that went over my head.

    Ive got one

    First think of the person who lives in disguise,
    Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies
    Next, tell me what's always the last thing to mend,
    The middle of middle and end of the end?
    And finally give me the sound often heard
    During the search of a hard-to-find word.
    Now string them together, and answer me this,
    What creature would you be unwilling to kiss?"

    Actually, I've figured out part of it and am still lost on one part. Unfortunately it's the beginning I'm missing which makes it harder to just start guessing words.

    Oh, the last part might be wrong - I just thought of another choice which more logical should make the end of a word.

    Two men have the following conversation.

    John: Hi Matt. How are your three kids? I forgot what their ages are.

    Matt: Hi John. Don't you remember? The product of their ages is 36.

    John: I still don't remember.

    Matt: The sum of their ages is the same as my house number.

    John: I still can't remember!

    Matt: The oldest one has red hair.

    John: Ah, right. I remember now!

    How old are Matt's kids?

    Pronounced as one letter,
    But written with three,
    Two letters there are and only two in me,
    I'm double, I'm single, I'm black, blue, and gray,
    I'm read from both ends and the same either way.
