Puzzles and brainteasers

I have two coins which add together to make twelve pence, one of the coins isn't a two pence piece. what are the two coins?

Imagine you are in a room with 3 switches. In an adjacent room there are 3 bulbs (all are off at the moment), each switch belongs to one bulb. It is impossible to see from one room to another. How can you find out which switch belongs to which bulb, if you may enter the room with the bulbs only once?

A table tennis ball fell into a tight deep pipe. The pipe was only a bit wider then the ball, so you can not use your hand. How would you take it out, with no damage?

How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and have it come back to you, even if it doesn't hit anything, there is nothing attached to it, and no one else catches or throws it?

Godwin's Law

Godwin's law states that:
As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one
In many newsgroups or internet discussions, once the comparison has been made that is the end of the discussion and the person who made the reference will have immediately lost the arguement, whatever the debate may have been.

ok....so the main page is finished and basically all i need to do now is fill this blog up with "random nonsense" until i have enough information to print this out....make improvements....evaluate.....And finally give up and go get something to eat.

So anyway.....

In the beginnning

In the beginning there was nothing, then i was set the task of making a weblog for ICT coursework. And so it began...first thing to do was the plan, a random layout and whatever title i could think of at the time of posting.....then came the creation of the blogger account, and then came the beginning......again......now......
So here i am talking about any random thing that comes to my head that so that i can finish this in time for the deadline, end of transmission......hehe
