ok so we dont have a file for riddles so I will post them here!!!

I come in darkness, but fill the mind with light.

I bring enlightenment to some, while gripping others in the hand of fear.

With me it can be a journey of inexplicable joy and sorrow.

What I will show you will often be unreachable.

Journey with me and what you see may haunt you.

Journey with me and you may never want to return home.

Journey with me and you will never know when it will end.

What am I?

A wealthy man named Richard Ellis had been counting his money. When

he finished, he accidentally left a $100.00 bill on his desk. But when he

returned for it a short while later, it was gone. Only two other people

could have seen the bill. One was the maid; the other was the butler.

The maid told him that she had hidden it for safe-keeping under a green

book that was on the desk. But when they looked the bill was not

there.

The butler said he had found the bill where the maid had left it. He had

placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less chance that

somebody would find it. He had written down the page numbers so that

he would not forget them. The bill was between pages 35 and 36, he

said. But when they looked, there was no money in the book.

After Mr. Ellis had talked to the maid and the butler, he called the

police. He knew who had taken the money. Who was it, and how did

he know?

You have 9 golf balls, 8 of which are equal in weight. The ninth is slightly

heavier then the

rest. You also have a balancing scale. Can you use this scale two times

and only two times in

order to tell which ball is heavier?

At first I thought hope but then thought dreams were closer. But still not right on target totally.

I'd say "your dreams" fits the first one perfectly.

Page 35 is back to back with 36, not facing it...so I'm guessing the butler took it. (the butler always does it...)

I don't read books because I have TV but it had to be the butler because page 35 & 36 are the same page and not opposites.

<edit> two things - 1st, Posen is a bitch :angry: :wink: and 2nd, I need to learn to type faster :eyeroll:

The key is doing it in thirds...dividing and deciding....

Place three golfballs on each tray of the scale.

- If the first weighing doesn't balance, remove all the balls from the lighter side, and place one golfball from the heavier tray on each tray. The heavier side is the heavy golfball, but if both sides balance, then the ball from the heavier tray (from the first weighing) that was not weighed in the second weighing is the heavier one.

- If the original two groups of three balls do balance on the first weighing, remove all of the balls from the trays, and place two of the remaining three unweighed balls on the trays, one on each tray. If one is heavier, you have found the heavier ball, but if those two do balance, the remaining unweighed ball is the heavier one.

Riddle #1 is

Your dreams

riddle #2 is

The butler did it. Mr. Ellis knew the butler was lying because pages 35

and 36 in a book are always printed on opposite sides of the same piece of paper.

and riddle #3 is

Separate the balls into 3 groups of 3. Place 3 balls on the left side of the

scale and 3 balls

good job everyone!!!

It is a part of us, and then replaced.

It escapes our bodies, to a better place.

The world becomes its sizable home;

its passions unrestraint,

the planet it roams.

What is it?

I was thinking pee... but pee don't roam the way that air does.

But looking at it again, water is a little more passionate than air...

But if it is a steamy breath, then they are both correct :wink:
