I'm going to assume I'm right and post a firemeboy original.  This actually happened to me.

A gardner went out into his garden on a cold November morning.  He needed to use his wheelbarrow but realized, much to his chagrin, that he had left water in it last night.  His wheelbarrow was now filled with a large block of ice.

It was a sunny morning, and the gardner really needed his wheelbarrow to be free of this ice.  But instead of putting the ice in the sun, he put the ice in the shade.  

Why?

I am guessing that he flipped the wheelbarrow upside down.  Now the bottom of the wheelbarrow was in the sun and would warm up.  this would in turn destory the bond between the ice and the wheelbarrow freeing the wheelbarrow from the ice quicker then it would be to melt all of the ice

Ok how about this one........
"2 men we discovered dead in a room.  Room is completely enclosed, and has 4 beds, a table and some chairs.  On the table is deck of cards. How did they die?”

Only ask yes or no questions

no doors or windows? they died from lack of oxygen, although if that could still get in, dehydration and then subsequent starvation would do the same :D

Did the men know each other?  
Were they related?
Were they playing cards?
Did they kill each other?
Were they killed by a person?
Were they killed by the same person?
Is the placement/order of the cards important?

Whoops...  :)

Yes, were the men stabbed.
Were the men killed indirectly by the actions of another person? ('m trying to figure out the 'yes/no' answer.
Where they killed by a random act of nature?
Were they *ahem* playing with a full deck?
Is it important to discern the game they were playing?
Were they playing with regular playing cards?  Tarrot cards?  Uno cards?
Was anybody else playing with them?
Were they playing poker?
Did they die from loss of blood?

No/No (Be more specific...hint hint)/No/No/No...you were close with one of these but I do not consider what they were in what you said.
