Because Im not thinking of what your thinking UNTIL you say, "its not what your dirty mind is thinking". At that point, I look for something dirty that fits the description.

Crumbs, pressed Post accidentally. Force of habit.

1/ What has 4 legs in the morning,
Two legs in the afternoon,
and three legs in the evening?



2/ The Man who makes it doesn't want it,
The man who buys it doesn't need it,
And the man who uses it never knows he's using it,
What is it?



3/ Alive without breath,
As cold as death;
Never thirsty, ever drinking,
All in mail never clicking.



I'd love to sit and type out the whole Hobit novel, but I'm a bit short of time

Bye,

It's called a CANE. People use them at the end of their life (or day in the analogy) because they tend to have back problems. Honestly, my 10-year old cousin is more mature than you.

And a really dirty mind at night.

Yay! I'm famous. I'm going to be on BMacZero's sig.

Quote: "Honestly, my 10-year old cousin is more mature than you.

He would be. I'm younger than him.
Mature is boring. Mature is what you see throughout the day in the office. Yippitty is fun!

But if you want mature, here's an interview question to test your finance IQ. Of course a lot of people seem to think that EQ is more important for assessing finance and management related fields.

A customer walks into a shop and buys a pair of shoes for $700.(Gucci shoes, possibly )
He gives the shopkeeper a $1000 bill. The shopkeeper doesn't have change. So he goes to the neighbourhood fellow and asks for change.
The neighbour takes the $1000 and gives him exact change in 10 bills of $100 each.
The shopkeeper gives the customer $300 in change. An hour later the neighbour returns screaming that the $1000 bill is fake, returns it to the shopkeeper and takes back a genuine $1000 from the shopkeeper.
How much money did the shopkeeper gain/lose in effect?

If you like riddles, you guys might be interested in this, it`s a `game` I wrote 3 years ago. It displays a picture and you`ve got to solve the riddle with the clue being in the picture. The idea is to go from room to room inside a castle by working out the password. A clue is given in each room as to what the password might be. Look at the clue, and look at the room, these two combined should give you the password. Give it a go but remember, it was 3 years ago.

It`s 10mb (not done in DB I`m afraid.)

Good Luck.

Who knows what they did up there,
They came down with a daughter.

Bards

The statement 'He said he was from the Helix tribe.' can never be true (because Helix people lie, so it's like saying 'I am a liar'), so the second one must be a liar. Therefore the last one is telling the truth.

Pardon? He said "He" not "I", i.e. he was talking about someone else, the first person of the three presumably. There's no other info given about that person.

I think The Riddler got his punctuation wrong.

@razer
the third can be from either the only certain one is the first is a helix.

First (bard): "second is a bard"
Second (bard): "he said I'm a bard"
WRONG

First (bard): "second is a helix"
Second (helix): "he said I'm a bard"
WRONG

First (helix): "second is a helix"
Second (bard): "he said I'm a helix"
CORRECT
Third must be a helix to call second a liar.

First (helix): "second is a bard"
Second (helix): "he said I'm a helix"
CORRECT
Third must be a bard to call second a liar.
