Actually at one point yes I did, I used to read riddles when I got bored.

What goes through the door without pinching itself?
What sits on the stove without burning itself?
What sits on the table and is not ashamed?

Okay, this game has serious momentum which makes it a lot of fun. I would like to see it stay that way. So to keep it from dragging on like the trivia game did I'm going to be adamant that people follow up with their posts. If they are not, then they will lose their turn to post a riddle and I will throw up another riddle myself (for no points) that will allow the solver to then ask the next riddle. Not to take anything away from anyone, but it's just alot more fun if the game keeps rolling.

Peanutbuterboy gets to ask the next riddle. If he doesn't post it by Midnight (12am) EST then I will go ahead and post the next riddle.

Alrighty....

The man was afraid to go home because the man in the mask was there.
Why...

A mother has three sick children. She has a 24-ounce bottle of medicine and needs to give each child eight ounces of the medicine. She is unable to get to the store and has only three clean containers, which measure 5, 11 and 13 ounces. The electricity is out and she has no way of heating water to wash the containers and doesn't want to spread germs. How can she divide the medicine to give each child an equal portion without having any two children drink from the same container?

fill up the 13 oz container, pour into the 11 oz container, leaving 2 oz. pour the 11 oz into the 5 oz container leaving 6 oz in the 11 oz container. pour the 2 oz into the 6 oz = 8. feed to sick kid #1.

pour all remaining 16 oz back into the 24 oz container, fill the 13 oz container, leaving 3 oz. from the 13 oz container, fill the 5 oz container. mix the 5 oz and the 3 oz in the 24 oz container = 8 oz. feed sick little bastard #2. All that remains is 8 oz in the 13 oz container for sick kid #3.

they're all sick anyways.

well...to keep this "momentum" thing brads been talking about....here's an easy one. It works better when spoken rather then written.

There is a one story house that has a little old lady who lives in it. This lady is obsessed with the color pink. She painted all the walls pink, and even painted all her furnature pink. She has pink flooring and carpets, pink microwave and a pink toaster. Her wardrobe is pink, lamp shades pink as well. Pink TV, pink computer, pink refridgerator, pink toilets, and pink sinks. I mean EVERYTHING is pink. The question is, what color are her stairs?
