    Reviving a VERY old thread.

    Here is a riddle for you:

    What word begans with "E", ends with "E", and only has one letter in it?

    Nifty.

    Riddle: The one that makes sells it, the one that buys it doesn't use, and the one who uses it doesn't know it.

    I believe so, it makes much sense.

    I can't remember any riddles. Actually wait, yes I do, but I'll post it at a later time when I'm not at Uni
    That which you manifest is before you.

    Yay! Okay, I got another riddle/story:

    Two gryphons [gryphon is the thing in my avy] are walking through the woods and stumble about another in a clearing. One gryphon looks to his companion and asks, "who is that?" His companion then replies,
    "Brothers and sisters, I have none. But that gryphon's father is my father's son."
    Question: How are they related?

    Correct.

    Nicoga, the gryphons in question are uncle/nephew.

    I love shagy dog stories.

    What walks on four legs in the morning, two at mid day, and three at the end of the day?
    I have no idea.

    I'll add one of my favorite brain teasers.

    A man was driving down the road in a black car with. As he was driving, a completly black furred dog ran into the street. This road had no houses or street lights. The car's headlights and internal light were off. There were no stars or moon out. Yet, the man was able to see the dog and stop with plenty of time to spare. How?

    Edit: Sorry, Sam, but I screwed it up, like I alwasy do. re-read, and try again. Good guess though.
