    *LOL* excellent lateral thinking, esp, but excessively so, and in a totally different direction to whoever made this one up. It;s not -that- obscure.

    (Well, not IMO anyway, that;s relative of course.

    *Puzzle 3, the short guy, you got. He is a height challenged person who can only reach as high as the 10th floor button in the elevator unless he is carrying an umbrella.*

    That is called a Lilliputter in Dutch. We have exactly the same Riddle in Dutch, didn't know the name in English . These people play in movies also. The little people, like Dwarfs and so on...

    Got you another Riddle:I make you weak at the worst of times, but I'll keep you safe from hights and crimes. I make your hands sweat, and your heart grow cold, I visit the weak, but seldom the bold.

    A stange thing, the more you take, the more you leave behind? what can this be?

    Again, I am so sorry...

    I felt bad about not being able to make them up as well as you guys, so i went searching for some of the old ones i remembered were good.

    Hints:
    The answer to 1 is not numerical.
    The answer to 2 is something illegal.

    And i can;t think of a better answer to yours, Banshee, than "time" too, (though offense could also fit, i doubt that's it). Did you say that was wrong?

    here are two that many of you might have heard already
    actually they might even have already been posted, but i dont want to read all 23 pages... 8)

    Riddle #1: "Angry" and "hungry" are two words that end in "gry". There are three words in the English language. What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means and everyone uses it every day. Look closely and I have already given you the third word. What is it?

    (hint: its a trick question...)

    Riddle #2: (ill probly word this wrong cuz i cant remember it perfectly but

    It is stronger than God, and more evil than the devil. The poor have lots of it, but the rich dont have it. If you fill a box with it, it is all the more lighter. What is is?

    oo heres a third one:
    The person who made it, doesnt want it for himself. The person who buys it wont use it for himself. The person who uses it, wont know that he uses it. What is it?
