I just read this in one of my text books. I thought it was good

What do you get when you cross an insomniac, agnostic, and a dyslexic?

ANSWER: Some one who stays up all night wondering whether there is a dog.

oops, I didn't look at the previous posts. Just thought this was a posting area for good riddles. Anyways, this last one I don't believe is a riddle, more of a poem you here in english class...

a surf board ridden by a surfer

The wave, over the wave, a weird thing I saw,
through-wrought, and wonderfully ornate:
a wonder on the wave - water became bone.

Why can't Kevin Laroche, who lives in Canada, not be buried in the US?

Because Nick and I are separate entities. ?

What?

lightningbolt · Post by **lightningbolt** » 19 Feb 2005 00:52

Because he's still alive?

qphox · Post by **qphox** » 19 Feb 2005 09:17

Oh yeah. He "lives" in Canada.

Though some mafia group could probably go about burying him alive or something.

tstep84 · Post by **tstep84** » 19 Feb 2005 22:18

Okay, I'm posting another riddle to keep the game going. This is not for points. Solving it only allows you to ask the next riddle.

If, having only one match, on a freezing winter day, you entered a room which contained a lamp, a kerosene heater, and a wood burning stove, which should you light first.

John Vin Heldgersthein and James Doe Smith are two travelers, Two world travelers with big grey beards, and large thirsts heading straight at each other on a straight road in the middle of the night. As John passes a street light, his shadow lengthens. He stops to ponder, is the top of my shadow moving faster than I am , or is he cruising at the same 5 miles per hours as I ?

JDoeSmith is cruising on a straight line who just happen to be moving at 5 miles an hour directly towards John. JDSmith is not pondering anything, he just keeps cranking out step after step as he makes his way along the dimly lit street.

They are 10 miles apart, when A fly, yes a fly, who is zooming at a whopping 40 miles an hour, leaves from the first traveller, flies in a straight line to the second traveller, turns around when he reaches him, and flies back to the first one. The fly immediately turns around and flies back to the second, and so forth.

When the two travellers meet, what distance has the fly travelled ?
