I was going to say "Paul" if you'd asked, "Who am I?"

I gave this puzzle to my 11 YO granddaughter.  She verbally worked through the problem out loud and resolved it in 20 seconds.

Well the answer is rather obvious! LOL An interesting fact, the Pathfinder club I was a co-leader of for 6 years was named the St. Louis Shadows. Our motto: Cast a good shadow, stand in God's light!

Here's a brain teaser: How do you get a giraffe in a refrigerator? If you can answer that one, then answer how do you get an elephant in a refrigerator?

[Gregory Matthews]

Giraffe: You open the door. Elephant: You remove the giraffe.

Right! (Clearly, you've done this before.)

What 5 letter word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it?

[Gregory Matthews]

The word is "short."

Great! You are correct!
