A Riddle

[Sweet 666]

Take away my first letter and I am unchanged;

Take away my second letter and I am unchanged;

Take away all my remaining letters and I am still unchanged!

 

What am I?

[Sweet 666]

If you want something to think about while browsing around the forums do riddles!! :D

[Kadere]

Ummm... you're nothing. That way there are no letters to remove for you to change.

[Sweet 666]

No, keep trying. :)

[Kadere]

I cheated and asked jeeves, if this is still allowed, I can answer your riddle correctly.

[Alarwyn Liande]

e!

 

I had this type of things in my math class last week. :D

[Alarwyn Liande]

[the dude]

What comes next?

 

1 8 11 69 ?

 

well, after the 69, who cares?

[Natael]

Well it's not really a riddle but here's a brain teaser that was in a book my mom had for her students when she taught a gifted class.

 

A man lives on the 13nth floor of an apartment building. When he goes too work he takes the elevator all the way down. When he comes home he takes the elevator only to the 7nth floor and takes the stairs the rest of the way. Why?

You may ask any question in order to answer the teaser.

 

Don't bother asking for the answer cause I won't tell ya until everyone gives up or someone answers the question. :)

[Kadere]

he's a midget. In the morning he can reach the ground level bottun and go all the way to the ground floor, but when he gets home he can't reach 13 so he presses 7 and then has to walk the rest of the way.

 

I've heard that one before.

[Natael]

Doesn't surprise me. As I said it was in a book of brain teasers my mother had.

[Alarwyn Liande]

42 is not correct, but I'll give you the next one. :D

 

88

[fader6818]

It took me a minute to get this one, because it looks odd typed.

 

The answer is 96.

 

1 8 11 69 88 96

 

Write them down and flip them upside down. :-)

[SinisterDeath]

What walks on 4 legs in the morning, 2 legs in the afternoon, and 4 legs after dark?

Give you a hint, it's not man. :P

[Sweet 666]

The dude got mine right!! :o It was a mail box or a mailman.

[Sweet 666]

Its it some kind of bela joke cause it is just the sphinxes riddle but modified. :?

Jenn picked a book off the highest shelf in her room. On the spine she read How to Jog. She ran out of the room and opened the book but found it had absolutely nothing to do with jogging. Explain.......

:D

[Dias]

Heh, how to jog your memory?

 

I'm not sure about this one, but I heard there are only three words in the english language containing the letters "gry". The first two are hungry and angry, and apparently the third is quite a common word. I don't know what it is. Do any of you?

[Kadere]

the third word is "language". The real riddle is "There are only 3 words in the english language. What is the third word?" The stuff about "gry" has nothing to do with the riddle.

[SinisterDeath]

Its it some kind of bela joke cause it is just the sphinxes riddle but modified. :?

 

No, it's me... I wake up, by crawling out of bed.. Go to do my normal day stuff on 2 legs.. then I crawl home. :P

It was one volume of a multi-volume dictionary (or encyclopedia) with the words from how through jog in it.

[Alys Kinch]
