Can you solve this week's puzzler?

This Week's Puzzler

Henry's Weapon

Time for a new puzzler, I think. This one is kind of historic in nature. Here we go. 

I stole this one. I know, that is a shock... lol. 

Here it is. You have to sort of fill in the missing details. 

A boy named Henry was born in Britain in the year 1761. At the age of 18, he joined their army. And at the age of 22, he had achieved the rank of Second Lieutenant.

At this time, he began working on a new type of weapon. That word is in italics because, while it is a weapon, it is not what everyone thinks of when you hear that word. You gotta think outside the box a little bit. 

He devoted all his spare time and much of his money to this creation. Twenty years later, his new anti-personel weapon was adopted by the British, and Henry was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. 

The weapon was named after its inventor. Not Henry, but his last name. It is a word we have all heard. And when you hear it, you won't think of it as a weapon. But it is. 

Good luck.

Answer the Puzzler »
Remember last week's puzzler?

Broken Axle

Puzzler time. An automotive puzzler this time. Here we go. 

Years ago a customer of ours was driving her car on vacation, about 50 miles from her home. And while she was driving along she heard this awful crashing, crunching, thudding sound and she realized her car was no longer moving forward, though the engine was running, and the car was in gear. So she coasts to the side of the road to await the tow truck. 

So the tow truck comes and tows the car to the gas station. So the mechanic at the gas station puts the car up on the lift and says, "Oh, you have a broken axle. That's why the car won't go and that explains the noises you heard on the road."

And she says, "Oh, what is that going to cost me?"

So, he looks it up and then tells her, "It is going to cost between $500 and $600 to replace that axle."

And she says, "Kind sir, take that estimate and stick it back on your shelf! I'm going to find a way home without replacing it!"

Then she leaves the garage and goes back to the car. She opens her truck where she has no tools at all. She has what people typically have in the truck. A couple of empty pizza boxes with a few slices left over. Tire iron. A jack for jacking up the car. A blanket. A broken bicycle chain. Spare tire. Six pack of beer. Stuff like that. 

Anyway, she managed to drive that 50 miles back home without fixing or replacing that broken axle. 

How does she do it?

Remember she does not repair or replace the broken axle. And here is a hint. It is a front wheel drive car. And another hint, it is not a four wheel drive car. 

How does she do this?
