This one really got me when I first heard it. And then I felt stupid.

2. A man and his son are driving along the road and they come to a railway crossing. The car gets stuck in the tracks and a train is approaching. Panicking, the man tries desperately to get unstuck, but to no avail - the train hits the car. The man is killed instantly, and the boy is rushed into hopsital.

Upon arriving, the surgeon comes in to have a look at him. Dismayed, the surgeon looks up and says, "I can't operate on this boy. He's my son."

5. Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.

And the same either way.
