There are three cities all equal distance from each other.
We will call then “Anywhere”, “Between”, and “Capital”.
Now, a plane flies directly from Anywhere to Between in 80 minutes.
It then flies directly from Between to Capital in 80 minutes.
But, it returns directly from Capital to Anywhere in 1 hour and 20 minutes.

If the plane flies at constant ground speed, please explain.

Puzzle #1a for March, 2008 (The Proof Reader Special):

The three sentences below sound like they make sense, but there's something wrong with each one of them.

This book fills a badly needed gap in your education.
Don't go near the water until you've learned how to swim.
If you get this message, call me right away; otherwise, don't bother.

Read each sentence and tell what's the matter.
