24. Four jolly men sat down to play, And played all night till the break of day. They played for cash and not for fun, With a separate score for every one.

25. Jack and Jill are lying on the floor inside the house, dead. They died from lack of water. There is shattered glass next to them. How did they die?

Also, I saved the page where I stole these from, which has the answers, but I did not look at them yet. So I too will participate in this one.
