RIDDLES\ REWARD**CLOSED**

Zekira Drake · May 17, 2007 12:55 AM

Å½ Â· So right now, we currently have these riddles:

1.) What does no man want, yet no man want to lose?

---------------

2.) A sharpshooter hung up his hat and put on a blindfold. He then walked 100 yards, turned around, and shot a bullet through his hat. The blindfold was a perfectly good one, completely blocking the man's vision.
How did me manage this feat?

---------------

3.) A wealthy man named Richard Ellis had been counting his money.When he finished, he accidentally left a $100.00 bill on his desk. But when he returned for it a short while later, it was gone. Only two other persons could have seen the bill. One was the maid; the other was the butler.

The maid told him that she had hidden it for safekeeping under a green book that was on the desk. But when they looked the bill was not there.

The butler said he had found the bill where the maid had left it. He had placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less chance that somebody would find it. He had written down the page numbers so that he would not forget them. The bill was between pages 35 and 36, he said. But when they looked, there was no money in the book.

After Mr. Ellis had talked to the maid and the butler, he called the police. He was sure he knew who had taken the money. Who was it, and how did he know?

The answer to #4:
Who: The Butler
Why: Becuase there is no space between pages 35 and 36, meaning that the Butler lied.

Err... Zekira! I just answered the money one!

mirror_lion · May 17, 2007 12:59 AM

Zekira Drake · May 17, 2007 1:16 AM

Å½ Â· Heh, sorry, didn't see that reply. Alright then! Here are the current riddles:

1.) What does no man want, yet no man want to lose?

---------------

2.) A sharpshooter hung up his hat and put on a blindfold. He then walked 100 yards, turned around, and shot a bullet through his hat. The blindfold was a perfectly good one, completely blocking the man's vision.

1. He hung that hat on the barrel of his gun.

2. His job.

3. The butler took it because he knew the butler was lying because pages 35 and 36 in a book are always printed on opposite sides of the same piece of paper.
