A father was speaking to his teenage daughter. "You arrived very late, at 3 o'clock in the morning, and you kept me and your mother up waiting anxiously for you. I do not want that to ever happen again." "But, Father," the girl replied, "I will never be able to do that again." What did she mean?

A man stared through the dirty soot-smeared window on the 26th floor of the office tower. Overcome with depression he slid the window open and jumped through it. It was a sheer drop outside the building to the ground. Miraculously after he landed he was completely unhurt. Since there was nothing to cushion his fall or slow his descent, how could he have survived?

There were window washers on a scaffold outside the window...he landed on the scaffold?

Well given that a horse jumping over a tower isn't that likely to occur I'm gonna guess that the man was either a ghost or he disappeared cause he got plowed into the ground from the horse landing on him and disappeared into the ground

it's a chess game right? A knight jumped over a rook and captured a pawn.

A policeman follows a burglar into a bar. When he enters the bar he finds a set of identical twins, dressed the same, with the loot between them. After several minutes he arrests one of the twins.

There had to be some kind of difference between them...One of them was wearing jewelry(necklace,earrings or rings)or maybe glasses?

I was going to say he fingerprinted them, because identical twins still have different fingerprints, but now your glasses remark has thrown me off.
Hmmm.....

The thief had photosensitive lenses which were still dark, indicating he had just come in from the outdoors.

A woman goes into a convenience store to buy a can of Coke. She pays for it with a $20 bill and receives $21.50 in change. No mistake was made.

Three switches outside a windowless room are connected to three light bulbs inside the room. How can you determine which switch is connected to which bulb if you may enter the room only once?

Okay, I'm thinking of this in a smart-alecky way, BUT, I'd go open the door, stand by the door, look in, and switch the switches one by one.
If the switches are out of reach from the doorway, then I'd go in the room, and have someone else switch the left switch, then middle, then right, and see which lights up when.

Hmmm, Geegee, that IS a logical guess, but let's say you are alone and the light switches are situated so that you would have to leave the room to operate them and cannot see the open door from them.
posted
Okay. Flip one switch on, but don't go in the room. Leave it on for like a year, so it burns out. THEN flip a second switch. Go in the room, find out which of the bulbs is burned out, and that's the first switch. The second switch is the bulb that's lit up, and the third is the unlit, unburned out bulb. HA! Is that it?

Geegee, you are so CLOSE!
Keep thinking the way your are and here's a hint...you don't have to wait for the first bulb to burn out!

You flip one switch on, then wait for like 2 minutes. Then flip a 2nd switch on and go into the room. Of the two that are lit, you feel wich one is the hotest, that was the first switch, the other one that is on is the 2nd switch and the one that is off is the 3rd switch.

Adults are holding children, waiting their turn. The children are handed (one at a time, usually) to a man, who holds them while a woman shoots them. If the child is crying, the man tries to stop the crying before the child is shot.
