Her parents are ZOMBIES! Run the other way little girl!!!!

2.) There is a 1-story-house and everything in the house is green.

the walls, everything. What color are the stairs?

What? The stairs have to go up to a second floor? What about the basement, or perhaps some Pet Stairs?

3.) There are 3 pine trees. If the wind is blowing north, what way
are the leaves blowing?

Though the leaves on a pine tree are often called needles, they are still leaves. And yes they have pine cones too, though I don't know what that has to do with anything. They may blow in the wind too, but the question asked about the leaves.

4.) How many word's make up Webster's Dictionary?

I can't help but criticize the grammar on this one. "word's" is the possessive form. And "Webster's Dictionary" should be in quotes if it is talking about the phrase, otherwise it speaks of the dictionary.

5.) A widow's husband is very ill, and she doesn't have enough money
to pay the medical bills. What can she do?

I suppose that depends on which definition of the word widow you are using. Per Merriam-Webster a widow is

1 a : a woman who has lost her husband by death and usually has not remarried b : GRASS WIDOW 2 c : a woman whose husband leaves her alone frequently or for long periods to engage in a usually specified activity <a golf widow>

a grass widow btw, is defined as

1 chiefly dialect a : a discarded mistress b : a woman who has had an illegitimate child
2 a : a woman whose husband is temporarily away from her b : a woman divorced or separated from her husband

So she could have remarried, though usually the term widow no longer applies, but not always. Also it could be that she just never sees her husband.

6.) What do you put in a toaster?

Waffles.

7.) What do cows drink?

Baby cows drink milk.

8.) If Cingular wireless called you and told you that you have been
on your home phone for 24 hours and they want the money for the bill
now, what would you do?

Cingular is the new at&t, so who knows anymore.

10.) There are 3 words in the dictionary that end in -gry. One is
angry. Another is hungry. What is the 3rd word.

"What" obviously doesn't end in "-gry", and that is the only context in which the tertiary can be inferred in this statement (as the 3rd word that ends in "-gry")
