Um..subject is...word play?
A man was to be sentenced, and the judge told him, "You may make a statement. If it is true, I'll sentence you to four years in prison. If it is false, I'll sentence you to six years in prison." After the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free. What did the man say?

Here's mine. I'm not sure what subject this would be. I guess logic?
Birbal is jester, counciler, and fool to the great Moghul emperor, Akbar. The villagers loved to talk of Birbal's wisdom and cleverness, and the emperor loved to try to outsmart him. One day Akbar (emperor) drew a line across the floor. "Birbal," he ordered, "you must make this line shorter, but you cannot erase any bit of it." Everyone present thought the emperor had finally outsmarted Birbal. It was clearly an impossible task. Yet within moments the emperor and everyone else present had to agree that Birbal had made the line shorter without erasing any of it. How could this be

This is probably too obvious to be the answer, but did he cover it up with his hand or something to make it shorter? =d

He formed the line into a circle, making it no longer a line. Therefore, it...couldn't be long?

Birbal simply drew a line longer than the first, which made the first line shorter than the second.
