A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."
The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.
In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?

Here's one more:
A man walks up to you and says - "everything I say to you is a lie."
Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

He is lying..
A truth teller would always tell the truth, thus he can't claim to lie.
Someone who ALWAYS lies never tells the truth, and by saying that he always lies he is telling the truth, thus the statement "everything i say to you is a lie" is the truth, so he is lying by saying a statement which isn't always true.
The statement "everything I say to you is a lie." describes itself... it's odd logic to explain.. sry.

He's lying.
He says "everything I say to you is a lie", and is lying in saying that. That doesn't automatically mean that everything he says is the truth - it merely means that NOT everything he says is a lie.

There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?

Err an envelope? Though that only has 8 letter in it. Still kinda works though, if not for the number of letters..

the "1955" is probably refering to another calender which isn't referenced to the birth of christ.

Technically that is a wrong answer =P
In order to win, adhereing to ALL the really wise-assed points, the carny would have had to of written :
your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50
in its entirety. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->
