Many have fallen but none have died.
Many have lost me and restlessly cried.
Many have I taken eternally
And many I have denied.
Cant believe you guys havent gotten that one yet. Should I give the answer?

I think that the man was shot in the eye and then the bullet went through one part of the skull and then went right out the back of the head and then out the glass and well yeah or the man had his head on the wall by frustration of work and then a man got a bat with a nail on the end and then WHAM into his head creating the puncture

Try this, what have I written below:

Dragonlord3 05-16-2003 12:00 PM

Ethan your wrong.
Ok heres the awnser:
He was show by an ice bullet and it melted in his head

Joshy 05-16-2003 09:50 PM

Ice bullet?, is it possible????

Splat 05-18-2003 03:18 PM

Ice bullet? Never heard that one before!

With thie-v-es I consort.
With the v-ilest, in short.
I'm quite at my ease in depra-v-ity.
Yet all de-v-ines see me.
And sa-v-ants can't loose me.
For I am the centre of gra-v-ity.
What am I?

Got it now? Man, you guys are slow (no offence!)

Here's one,
Whoever makes it, tells it not.
Whoever takes it, knows it not.
Whoever knows it, wants it not.
What is it?
(and it isn't a letter)

Native Poser 05-19-2003 03:12 AM

An answer? Ack! I'm gettn' rusty at this.. What about this one?

We are tiny creatures,
Each having unique features,
One of us set in glass,
One more you'll find in jet,
another of us you will see in tin,
And a another still set in perfect stone,
The fith of us is the one you should pursue,
it can never fly away from you...
...What are we?

Hobo 05-19-2003 03:19 PM

Splat, is ur second one a coffin. Probably not because i think that might be a similar riddle

paramiteabe 05-19-2003 05:26 PM

This is a retarded Riddle!hehehe:lol::lol:


Whats Big and round and red all over?

Splat 05-21-2003 08:12 AM

NP and Hobo, you're both wrong, it's less obvious than that, and Paramiteabe, I don't even wanna know!

paramiteabe 05-21-2003 01:35 PM

A tomato on Steroids! Tada!:lol:

Splat 05-22-2003 04:05 PM

Native Poser 05-24-2003 05:39 AM

Haha, no one tries my riddles anymore unless I deliberately make them easy. So, heres an easy one I guess...

I am only useful
When I am full,
Yet I am always
Full of holes...

Splat 05-26-2003 12:14 PM

urrr...

Whoever makes it, tells it not.
Whoever takes it, knows it not.

Is counterfiet money!


Is NP's a sieve or a tea strainer?
Your only useful when you are full (of holes)
But you are always full of holes.

Native Poser 05-30-2003 10:25 PM

Nah, mine wasn't sieve or a tea strainer--good guess though!

A sponge?

Native Poser 05-31-2003 08:42 PM

Yes, it was a sponge. Heres another fairly easy one:

You heard me before,
Yet you hear me again,
Then I die,
'Till you call me again.

Splat 06-01-2003 01:44 PM

Urrr... I guess I lost my touch :(

The person who makes it doesn't want it.
The person who buys it doesn't use it.
The person who uses it doesn't sees it.
The person who sees it used should never see it again.
What is it?

Oh, and,

if it takes 8 men 12 days to dig a whole with a spade each, each taking 12 hours resting time each day, how long will it take 2 men to dig half a hole each resting 9 hours each day?

Riddles
 
1. It lives on land, eats meat and leaves it is an animal it has technoligy.

2. It is a number, it is between 1-10, it is a quarter of 10 doubled and halved twice.

Splat 06-02-2003 03:43 PM

Yup Hobo, that's a coffin alright!

A farmer sells peaches to a shop. he has 2 peach trees, each with 6 branches. Each branch has 8 sticks, each stick has 3 twigs, and each twig produces 2 pieces of fruit every month from June to September. The farmer keeps 3 tenths of the fruit he produces, and the rest he gives to the shop. How many pears does the shop recieve from the farmer each year?

Mr. X,
your first is a human,
your second is 2.5
Maybe I haven't lost my touch after all!

-None...

"2. It is a number, it is between 1-10, it is a quarter of 10 doubled and halved twice."

quarter of 10 = 2.5

doubled = 5

halved twice = 5/2 = 2.5, 2.5/2 = 1.25...

Splat 06-04-2003 02:50 PM

Well done alpha. A plum tree doesn't grow pears. Goin out in 1/4 of an hour and i still have loads to do so I can't post any more yet.
