Wyld Card 5 Report post Posted July 6, 2006 Until Daslied comes back & favors us all with a champion riddle, here's a couple of logical brain~teasers to tide over time. In a completed dictionary from cover to cover, what 3 letter word contains the most definitions?Run I have eyes of five, yet I am blind, what am I?Mississippi River I am a five letter word & can have my last 4 letters removed and I would still sound the same; What word am I?Queue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daslied 1 Report post Posted July 6, 2006 (edited) 1. Cap 2. A dog. Head with ears/whiskers, paws for feet and a tail. I don't know what the hell I'm saying. 3. Queue I didn't actually get the last one right, so Levis has to choose someone. Edited July 6, 2006 by Guest Damn you, Farin. Always beating me.

Wyld Card 5 Report post Posted July 6, 2006 I don't have much luck with posting this unknown deal called thread "spoilers", but I had to change the 2nd quick riddle, because the answer was too simplistic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Levis 6 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 I was having a drink of water and I thought about Das' answer to my question and I nearly choked. (from laughing) MindCrime's put up a question so we can carry on from there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daslied 1 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 Hey, just because you're smarter than me doesn't mean you can laugh at my ineptitude. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Levis 6 Report post Posted July 10, 2006 I am just moving this thread to the first page... is there an answer here? Is there a question here? PS: Fret not, Das... I am not really smarter than you... that's just an illusion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Well is there still a riddle to be solved? Or should someone post a new one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 The only thing I can think of at the moment is another of theses yes/no riddles (like Romeo & Juliett the goldfish ) But since nobody else seems to have one I'll post it anyway... In a desert there is a long line of various articles of clothing. At the end of that line lies a dead, naked man face down in the sand and clutches a straw in his hand. All around there are no footprints. What happened? You can ask yes or no questions... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Do all the clothes belong to him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 ooh a customer (and it took only 4 hours for the first one to arrive ) a very good question - No, not all the clothes belong to him... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tenacious_Peaches 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Was the straw to drink the snowman that melted in the desert heat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Nope, but a good idea anyway What other uses could a straw have? (look at Fintan's question and the answer) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 This is driving me nuts. Maybe he drank the sea... But then where are the people to who the clothes belong? Did he drink with the straw at all? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 I think you have to ask more questions... Did he take th clothes of because it was hot? - No. There aren't any footsteps - were they're in a car? No, there aren't any tracks of any kind... We already gathered that he wasn't alone - did the other person kill him? - No... maybe that helped...

TheTallOne 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Did he jump out a plane with his suitcase and it opened on the way down and he hit the ground and died? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tenacious_Peaches 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Tall One! He jumped out of the plane because there were snakes on it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) Maybe he was actually on a beach and it was ebb? But on the other hand, what would he do with a straw then... Edited July 14, 2006 by Guest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farin 2 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 (edited) not really, but close. Let's say the cause of death is the right one, but it wasn't a plane, he din't have a suitcase and the clothings are lying in a line with some distance between them... EDIT: Fintan: no, it's a desert (which isn't really important, other than the no-footsteps thing) Peachy: Edited July 14, 2006 by Guest you're just too fast for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
