A man in a restaurant asked a waiter for a juice glass, a dinner plate, water, a match, and a lemon wedge. The man poured enough water onto the plate to cover it.
"If you can get the water on the plate into this glass without touching or moving this plate, I will give you $100," the man said. "You can use the match and lemon to do this."
A few minutes later, the waiter walked away with $100 in his pocket. How did the waiter get the water into the glass?

Glen. "Detective, I'm so glad you came. The last place I saw Mr. Gooding was in his room. I suspected that would be your
first question. Mrs. Glen said somewhat nervously. She walked Sara into the other
room. "Up here Mrs. Glen called from a twisting flight of stairs. The front door banged shut just as Sara started up the steps. "Oh, I must have left the door open. The wind must have shut it." Mrs, Glen said. Again they started up the stairs.
They walked up the enormous stairway.
Halfway up detective Sara noticed a weather vane through the window. She realized that the wind was blowing west
and in order for it to have shut the door it would have to have been blowing east.
Then Sara realized for the first time that there was a third set of footsteps on the stairs, Then it dawned on her and she
realized she had walked into a trap. How did Sara know she had walked into a trap?
