Is it? Oh well, try this one:

Study this paragraph and all things in it. What is vitally wrong with it? Actually, nothing in it is wrong, but you must admit that it is most unusual. Don't just zip through it quickly, but study it scrupulously. With luck you should spot what is so particular about it and all words found in it. Can you say what it is? Tax your brains and try again. Don't miss a word or a symbol. It isn't all that difficult?

[Honest Gaza]

A man lives on the 23rd floor of a high rise apartment.
Every day he takes the lift to the Ground Flr and off to work he goes.
When he comes home from work, he takes the lift to the 10th Flr and walks the rest of the way up via the stairs.

Except on rainy days when he catches the lift all the way to the 23rd Floor.

WHY ?

[Jack E]

The guy is a midget who can only reach the button on the tenth floor. On rainy days with the aid of his umbrella he can reach the button for the 23rd floor.

My turn,

What happened ?

Hi Gaza

The diver was picked up by a helicopter loading water in containers and then dropping the water onto the fire to put it out.

Interestingly, this riddle has turned into a urban legend, where people actaully believe that it happened. There is a write up on one of my favourite websites: http://www.snopes.com/horrors/freakish/scuba.htm
