Concerning the elevator riddle I thought the rain was relevant.

Spoiler

The man is a midget and can only reach to the 12th floor button. Other passengers can press the 20th floor button for him or he uses his umbrella when it's raining. My only reservation with this answer is, why doesn't he carry his umbrella always?

Not being American, am I missing out on the murderer mystery?

Sounds good to me festilligambe;-D. It's a matter of adding one ammount and taking away the other.

Okay, another easy one. Three guys go into a restauant and their meal comes to Thirty, £ or $.They each pay Ten but when the waiter goes to the cashier she says the meal should only have cost Twenty-five. Rather than trying to split five between three the waiter gave them back three and put two in his pocket. So the guys between them paid Twenty-seven and the waiter has Two making Twenty-nine. What happened to the other One?

No, you're not wrong Stupot+, I just hadn't thought of that more obvious interpretation.

You're right this time Stupot+ although I've always thought of it as in loch. Well done all(laugh)

Sorry Stupot+ but TheBitPriest is right again. It's all about phonetics. However mullion is wrong.

TheBitPriest is correctomundo The one that fleww off the handle. I thought they were probably the hardest two. Any more guesses?

TheBitPriest is correct about the anatomy of a door but any clues would give the answer. I'll give you one answer but I don't see that it will help with the rest.
The answer to b) is " the one on the panel " It's an old term for being absent from work through sickness.

Was it something I said?

I thought that change would give it away.Selmiak is close enough:) It's feet off the floor.

Here's another one that may be a bit anglo for some.
There are four flies on a door, which one is; a)wet b)sick c)sticky d)angry.

An electric lightbulb is measured in candlepower

Sorry Atelier.

I'll change it to " before you get into bed " Any easier?

'fraid not.

I have a little poser that may just fit this thread.
What is the last thing you take off before you go to bed?
