Brain Teasers - DO you know the answers to these three questions?

I was going through my sons bookbag and came across these questions. Can you answer them?

1. How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and have it come back to you, even if it doesn't hit anything, there is nothing attached to it, and no one else catches or throws it?

2. Two students are sitting on opposite sides of the same desk. There is nothing in between them but the desk. Why can't they see each other?

3. There are only two T's in Timothy Tuttle. True or false?

1. Throw the ball straight up in the air.

2. The two students have their backs to each other.

3. True. There are only two T's (upper case). There are also three t's (lower case).

2. they are blind?
3. There are only 2 capital T's in Timothy Turtle the rest are lower case t's

That was my answer for #2 also. I would like to add that it might not have been the answer they were looking for, but it is however correct.
