the answer to my riddle is 6 stops
this joke is best told verbally
most people are so conditioned to respond to the number of people on the bus that they ignore all other information so they can attend to their word problem
try saying it to somebody sometime

Some fairly easy trick questions:
1) Why are 1968 pennies worth more than 1967 pennies?
2) What is the eleven letter word that all Yale graduates spell incorrectly?
3) What can go up a chimney down but not down a chimney up?
4) Find 4 letters to complete the analogy: H is to GRAM as D is to ?
You can run....but you'll just die tired.
