    The head lights reflected on the dogs eyes. That way the driver saw the dog and was able to stop in time. Assuming he had his high beams on.

    Thanks for the banner, Sombolia.

    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    Sajm, please re-read my last reply. My fault, sorry.

    I don't understand the legs/man one...

    Our time on this planet is precious, and can be snuffed out at any moment. Every second of every day should mean something.

    Two at mid day: How a person normally walks

    Thanks for the banner, Sombolia.

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?
    .

    And, yeah. I'd probably guess daytime, too.

    Bingo! That is why there was no moon or stars(Unless you want to get tenichal and concider the sun a star), and why the man had all his lights off.

    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?
    Father and Son right? I hope

    And all the other one's seem to be pretty much answered so here's one for you.

    There is a house with four walls, each wall has a window, and each window faces south. A bear walks past one of the windows. What colour is the bear?
    That which you manifest is before you.

    Was that just a random guess? Hehe, either way, it's right

    Doesn't he saw a hole in the table or something.. and then he kinda 'sees' that it's a hole and climbs through it to escape? It's something silly like that anyway

    You sure there wasn't a tape recorder there on the table somewhere and then when he plays is it goes like "Hello *enter name here*... i wanna play a game" XD.
    Nah, not quite.

    Honestly, i think there's a detail missing from the riddle, cause you said "no obvious thing around that is a exit", meaning that it is an exit if inspected closer. Either that or i'm supposed to figure it out now.

    And he could "get out" if he kills himself xD''
