Why that ?

I mean .. ok .. :woot: :O:



[wisea$$ mode] It is "Gott strafe Engeland", please be prceise when quoting. And it was spelled 'Engeland' because it stems from Angeland, or Angel-land, from when a norther germanic tribe (Angeln) invaded that island together with the germanic tribe of saxons, which made it the Anglo-saxons. Until other Normans arrived from the Normandy, but somehow the old word stuck. :O: [/wisea$$ mode]

Well just who the hell am I going to discuss the damn good old days with? Riddle me that Samurai...

Can you solve the following brainteasers by the Riddling Monk? Or will you go mad trying to think of the answer?
Riddle #1
Which is heavier: a ton of gold or a ton of feathers?
Riddle #2
Where’s the bottom at the top?
Riddle #3
If a grasshopper halves the distance to a wall on every jump, how many jumps will he need to reach the wall if he starts from ten feet away?
Riddle #4
Jin is standing behind Kuzo, but Kuzo is standing behind Jin. How can that be?
Riddle #5
I have no voice yet I speak to you, I tell of all things in the world that people do.
I have leaves, but I am not a tree.
I have pages, but I am not a bride.
I have a spine and hinges, but I am not a man or a door,
I have told you all, I cannot tell you more.
What am I?
Riddle #6
No legs have I to dance, No lungs have I to breathe, No life have I to live or die And yet I do all three. What am I?
Riddle #7
You are in a room with two doors - one leads further into the dungeon, one leads to freedom. There are two guards in the room, one at each door. One always tells the truth. One always lies. What one question can you ask one of the guards that will help you pick the door to freedom?


:O:

Silent 'e's always escape me. Sailor Steve will be proud of you too! And so would Rollo the Ganger d. 932 AD from whom I claim descent, that's why they call it Normandy! The solution to the Anglo-Saxon infestation if ever! The one-edged saxe (also seax) is still a useful utensil however. Never admit to 'wise-arsen' mode in this forum; It's assumed! AND THAT'S PRECISE not ''prceise" but then you were JUSTE testing me! :arrgh!:

#2
binge drinking from a bottle

book

No idea on #6 and #7 :88)

You're going to get Schroeder after you for robbing him of his KlugschieBer status if you don't watch out.
