Congrats, OI. Close enough by far!

A man had just been released from prison. In the box he had a trained cockroach. He went into the bar to celebrate his relief, showed off the roach, which the bartender promptly killed!

I like the questioning. The small questions with the paragraph questions thrown in that happen to be correct. Where are you guys finding these answers on the internet?

Is it blue? NO

Is it red? NO

Is it when the guy walks into the barbershop and gets a haircut while reading a news paper with the headline that says "Your Daily Horoscope" and then flips to the sports section until the barber finishes cutting his hair and then he pays him and walks out and before he walks through a doorway sees a sign that is magenta? YES

Was there a puzzle?

Good Job Ocean. Don't spend the prize all in one place.

Well, these are all done anyway unless I monitor this site 24 hours a day.

However, I'm trying to figure out how individuals can ask these very simple questions in a row and then end it with this one big paragraph explanation that seems to solve the whole puzzle?

It's fishy, that's all.
