A riddle

[halcyondream]

Riddleski:

A man lives in his house. He also works out of his house and his job is very important. Everyday the man must sleep with the lights on to avert tragedy. One night the man gets so sick of the light he turns it out for the night. The next morning he reads the newspaper, takes out a gun, and shoots himself. Why?

==================================================
(1) There r 3 ducks floating in a lake in a row.[lake with dirty water where they r not able to see their reflection in the water]. the one in the middle says "in front of me are 3 ducks, behind me r 3 ducks, to the left of me r three, n to the right of me r 3 ducks !" how's that possible ? remember they don't see their reflection n can't count them. also they do not change their positions.
Try if u can. I guess u can't !
==================================================

halcyondream was right for the first one [the duck was a liar ]but
No one answered my second one.

(2) At a Ration shop, the owner uses just 4 weights to weigh all weights of cereals, upto 80 KGs. i.e he can weigh all weights [1,2,3,4.......79,80.] with those 4 weights only. How much those 4 weights weigh individually?

note : they weigh exactly. i.e 1 or 2 or 3 or.. & not 1.5 , 2.75 etc.

He shoots himself because he cannot see there is no light!

Obviously, the man worked at a lighthouse. Turning out the light created a Titanic scale maritime disaster. All over the media, as well! News at 11! All this only to get a good night's sleep..! I mean, how selfish was this dude, really? Like, dude!
