An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons, but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill their living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man bought?
EDIT: This one is kinda tough so here's your hint, think back in the day, before computers or... other important inventions.

1st guys' thoughts:
Scenario1: I see white and black, so i'm wearing white or black. Scenario2: I see black and black, so i'm wearing white or black. Scenario3: I see white and white, so i'm wearing black.
Scenario3 is invalid, since that would draw a conclusion.
guy2 knows that if guy3 is wearing white, then he can't be wearing white since that would draw a conclusion for guy1.
Guy2 knows that if guy3 is wearing black then he and Guy1 could be wearing white. Guy2 also knows that if guy3 is wearing black that he and guy1 could be wearing black.
If guy2 saw white then he knows he has to be wearing black, since white would draw a conclusion. So he can't be seeing white because then he would know what himself was wearing.
So guy3 has to be wearing black. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> bingo

Sergi and Sally where sitting in their family room one night. While Sergi was watching T.V his wife Sally was reading. All of a sudden the power went out and Sergi decided to go to bed, but Sally kept on reading. With no use of artificial light, Sally kept on reading. How?
To clarify there is NO LIGHT, absolutely none and to cover some, no SHE WAS NOT PART CAT and no she isn't a mutant. Normal, real circumstances here.

A doctor and a bus driver are both in love with the same woman, an attractive girl named Sarah. The bus driver had to go on a long bustrip that would last a week. Before he left, he gave Sarah seven apples. Why?

He knew that she would never eat apples as she's overweight and only eats Doritos, so the apples were laced with C4, mini blasting caps, and a trace of cyanide to where when the doctor bit in since only he would be enough of a healthnut to eat one, it would blow up and for good measure poison him. Damn doctors.
A guy dies and goes to a place between heaven and hell. There are 2 doors. One leads to the heaven, the other one to hell. Two angels come. One tells only the truth and the other one always lies. The guy can ask one question to the angels. What should he ask to know where's the heaven?

But they don't rhyme.
4 and a score!
so I guess 4 score = 80, or if you want to be true to Lincoln's speech, it's "4 score & twenty years ago" or 100 years.
