Ha, I thought I was posting in Starbreeze's challenge when I posted the above about Starbreeze. Well, they both have riddles, I guess it's an easy mistake.
It still applies. |

Yup, mine was teeth & tongue. I think that was Gollum's riddle.

I'm round as a pear and deep as a cup;

I got a riddle although I don't know if I'm aloud to post one yet, I don't know the rules, but I hope it's alright if I put up my riddle.
What has no eyes but you see it, has no ears yet you hear it, and has no mouth but you feed it and things come out? (of it's "mouth", not the other end!) I just made this riddle up right now sitting here cuz I looked over and thought, why not make one up about.....'it'.

Thanks Niere [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Ok, that's a really good answer, never thought of that, but it's not the answer I'm looking for. I'll give a hint though: Usually it goes on a desk.

Nope. Ok I'll give a big hint- it usually is in a computer room. Most likely next to the computer.

Lothiriel, I would have guessed it was an ATM machine! LOL! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Okay, trying to think...
This is kinda untraditional (no, it's REALLY untraditional): A man was on his way to work. As he drove along, he saw his father and waved to him. A few minutes later, the man was involved in a serious accident. He was driven to the hospital, but his father could not get there before he was to be operated on. So the doctor came in to operate, and said, "I can't operate on this man. He is my son." Who is the doctor? I couldn't think of anything better.

His mother. Right. I suppose everybody's heard that one.
Grrr, Susan! How come you are so good at riddles??? And where'd you hear so MANY??? Do you just make them up on the spot? *Brimming with envy* [ May 21, 2002: Message edited by: Ithaeliel ]

How about a hintlet? just a little one...
Well, see, Ithaeliel, I um...kind of, collect riddles, so I've read a lot of them and know the general conventions. And, no, I don't usually make them up; I get them out of my book, which is all the best ones I've come across.

Lol Ithaeliel, ATM machine. That riddle was really stupid, I'm sorry people. I couldn't think of one so I had to make one up!
Samwise- is it the past???

There's always another riddle out there [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
1. In a tunnel of darkness lies a beast of iron. It can only attack when pulled back. I don't remember whether this one has been asked here before. If it has, then it should be really easy [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] 2. This nag rides the night, Silent with fright, But all who are near Know nothing to fear.

I am guessing the first one to be a gun, perhaps.
In the second one... what does "nag" mean? I have only heard that word used when referring to an old horse (or someone who is bothering you, but I doubt it means that). |

Yes, a "nag" is an old horse, Tigerlily, and I'm guessing that one to be a nightmare.
As for the second one, is it a bullet? Quote:

Here's a simple one I love to dance and twist and prance; I shake my tail as away I sail; Wingless I fly, into the sky. And one the like of which I've posted before, though I don't remember in which thread My first is a woman, My second's a bird. My whole is an insect, I give you my word.
