Fill in the blanks, such that the blanks marked (1) are the same word, and the blanks marked (2) are also the same word.

Tom has something wrong with his brain. After medical examination, the doctor told him:

"Your brain has two parts: one is (1), and the other is (2). Your (1) brain has nothing (2), Your (2) brain has nothing (1
).

I got something...dunno if it's the right words, but it fits:

"Your brain has two parts: one is (left), and the other is (right). Your (left) brain has nothing (right), Your (right) brain has nothing (left)."

Yall are right * triuphant music plays and Leaha sticks a sticker on your fourhead*

Lets try a harder one

In a country, there exists over 100 streets. Street 1 is named First Street, street 2 is named Second Street, and so on and so forth.

A traveller decides to walk through all these streets in the country. He could find all the streets except Street 62. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find it.

He later found that the locals had given the street another name.

What is the name
?

My science teacher used to give us these all the time! I was never any good at them, and this one is no exception. :P Umm... so I'll guess. Did they name the street Broadway?

Hey sorry guys I have been trying to at least get a new brain teaser on here evrey week



Yeah and minute street is the answer!
* sticks giant sticker on the persons who got it rights forhead*

Mr. Simkin, the new math teacher at school, was impressed by his students' ability to solve logic puzzles. He pulled aside three more students, and handed them each a sealed envelope with a number written inside. He told them that they each have a positive integer, and the sum of their numbers was 14.

Manny, Moe, and Jack each opened their envelopes. Mr. Simkin asks Manny if he knows anything about the numbers the other two are holding, and Manny says, "I know that Moe and Jack are holding different numbers."

Moe answers, "IN THAT CASE, I know that all three of our numbers are different."

Jack thinks for a bit, and then says, "Now I know all of our numbers."

Mr. Simkin turns to the class and asks if anyone in the class knows the numbers. Gretchen's hand shoots up into the air, and after waiting for a while to see if anyone else will get the answer, Mr. Simkin calls on Gretchen.

What numbers does she say they each are holding
