Light one rope on both ends. Since it is now burning twice as fast, it will take just 30 minutes. At the same time, light the othe rope on one end.
After the first rope is fully burned, 30 mins have gone by, and 30 mins remain on rope 2. Now light the other end of rope 2, making it burn twice as fast and finish in 15 minutes instead. 15 + 30 = 45
A man was found dead in his study. He was slumped over his desk and a gun was in his hand. There was a cassette recorder on his desk. When the police entered the room and pressed the play button on the tape recorder they heard: "I can't go on. I have nothing to live for." Then there was the sound of a gunshot. How did the detective immediately know that the man had been murdered and it wasn't a suicide?

"One morning a man is leaving on business trip and finds he left some paperwork at his office. He runs into his office to get it and the night watchman stops him and says, "Sir don't get on the plane. I had a dream last night that the plane would crash and everyone would die!" The man takes his word and cancels his trip. Sure enough the plane crashes and everyone dies. The next morning the man gives the watchman a $1,000 reward for saving his life and then fires him. Why did he fire the watchman that saved his life?"
