    "A woman shoots her husband 3 times. She then proceeds to hold him under water for about 5 minutes. Upon that she hangs him. But her husband is still alive and kicking. How is that possible?

    She shot him with a camera and he's a monk who can hold his breath indefinitely by slowing his heart rate and metabolism.

    Or it was her ex-husband that she killed.



    Riddle: What's in my left pocket?

    A ring that turns you invisible at the risk of bringing down the unending dominion of the dark lord upon us?

    Dammit.

    Even though the answer you gave is acceptable, the true answer is: "My Preciousssssssssss"

    Sorry, been under heavy pain killers last couple of days, busted my knee again, and there fore haven't watched this. Yes the answer is Kitten and next one:

    I march before armies,
    a thousand salute me;
    My fall can bring victory,
    but no one would shoot me;
    The wind is my lover,
    one-legged am I;
    Name me and see me
    at home in the sky.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but a kitten is still very much a cat, hence it has the head and feet of a cat - as well as a body, tail, ears etc. of a cat.

    IT IS A CAT!


    Anyway, the answer to that last riddle of yours is a flag, or a standard.

    I am sometimes strong and sometimes weak, but I am nobody's fool.
    For there is no language that I cannot speak, though I never went to school.

    To be or NOT to be?
    Is it a question or the most perplexing riddle ever? :hippy:

    Has anyone asked why the chicken crossed the road yet? (hey 14 pages is a lot of reading you know!)

    YES. I finally know the answer to one of these. This one's easy, too. It's a plastic Ziploc bag with a cat's head and feet inside.

    Sorry Milo. This riddle is already answered. It's kitten.

    I must always be fed,
    The finger I lick
    Will soon turn red."

    It can't be a tongue, because they have a tendency to go to school with the rest of one's body. It's not like you leave it behind, you know.

    A voice?

    Okay, I know the going to school with the body still stands, but, I dunno ... lets say it was a disembodied voice.

    Tongues can't speak, by the way. Not on their own. They require help from Mr Velum, the Teeth Family and the Lip twins, not to mention the shady organisation known only as Vocal Cords.

    It's fire. Next:

    "Lighter than what
    I am made of,
    More of me is hidden
    Than is seen."
