Answer and Ask Game
Saturday, March 22, 2008 by HAPTORK | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I have a riddle which I want to ask but its better to start a game on riddles. Firstly one will ask an interesting riddle then all will try to answer. The one whose answer will be declared correct will be given chance to ask the riddle and so on. If no correct answer will be given for one or atmost two days then the one who asked riddle will give the answer and the one who gave the first reply to the riddle will be given the chance to ask the next riddle.
If there is any condition of stalement(if the person given chance to ask the next riddle is absent for long then anyone can ask the riddle: no problem about it). These are no hard and fast rules, if someone has an interesting riddle then you can ask in between also but its better to firstly answer the one which is going on.
So here goes the first riddle.....

"A man is very much addicted to smoking. On one of the dry day(some particular days when selling of cigerate is prohibited) he gets very keen of smoking. He finds 25 pieces of cigarete in his room which he left after smoking the cigarate. He can make one cigarate by joining 5 pieces. How many cigarates he can get with 25 pieces??"

What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks; has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

Three friends check into a motel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the 3 friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each of the three friends gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????

There is no extra dollar
They paid a total of $25 for the night, they got back $3 of the original $30 and the bellhop got the other $2 of the original $30

Only one color, but not one size; stuck to the ground, yet easily flies. Present in sun, but not in rain; doing no harm, and feeling no pain. What is it?

Well it doesn't cost a slice of lemon anything since the lemon isn't the one buying.
Unless that was supposed to be "How much does it cost FOR a slice of lemon?"
Which can't be answered without more information.
Or it could be that the lemon is a garnish and is included for free.

actually I don't have one off the top of my head so I'll defer back to messiah1 since he got skipped on posting one. He visits often enough I'm sure it won't be long before he posts one.
If it is then I'll post one
If it is then I'll post one
