Charity (charityross) How about...

Flip one switch and leave it on for about 10 minutes. Flip a second switch and leave it on for about 1-2 minutes. Do not flip the third switch.

The hottest bulb is controlled by the first switch. The mildly hot bulb is controlled by the second switch. And the cold bulb is controlled by the third switch.

The only problem is that you are still in a dark room. Ha ha.

Turn on the first switch for an hour wait,
turn off that light turn on light two then run to the room
the light bulb that is hot is one switch
the one that is still on is one switch
and the one that is cold and off is the other switch.

Hey Bookworm,
Post a riddle!


message 116: by [deleted user] (new)

ok.

Tom and his younger sister were fighting. Their mother was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper in such a way that they couldn't touch each other.

How did she accomplish this?



message 117: by [deleted user] (new)

She unfolded the piece of the newspaper.


message 118: by [deleted user] (new)

nope.


message 119: by Aumee (new)

Aumee | 72 comments she made them stand face to face (glaring at each other, haha)


message 120: by [deleted user] (new)

haha, no, sorry.

What happens if no one figures it out?


message 121: by Charity (new)

Charity (charityross) She put the newspaper under a door and they each had to stand on opposite sides of the door on the newspaper.


message 122: by [deleted user] (new)

Either you looked it up, or you're very smart! Yes, that's it!


message 123: by Charity (new)

Charity (charityross) Actually, I shouldn't take the credit. My friend (a huge riddle hound) knew the answer immediately when I read it to her.

Here is a riddle she gave me to post (hopefully, it hasn't been posted before):

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


message 124: by [deleted user] (new)

Can people guess twice?


message 125: by [deleted user] (new)

A doll?


message 126: by [deleted user] (new)

IT'S A RIVER!!!!!! Am I right?!?!


message 127: by Charity (new)

Charity (charityross) That's right! You're up, Bookworm.


message 128: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh Yeah!!! *sings the 'i got it right' song*
And Marco, I'm a girl not a guy. Don't worry. I'm not offended. :)

Ok, here's my riddle:

I fly in the air, But I am not always there. I cannot be touched, But I can be felt or held. Think very hard, But if you live near the equator, You may have a tough time seeing me. What am I?



message 129: by [deleted user] (new)

Really, it's not that hard. I would think you people would be smarter than that. :)

And yes, that's right!
And to the riddle.... is it a clock?


message 133: by [deleted user] (new)

Really?!?! That's awesome!

ok, here's another one....

I can sizzle like bacon,
I am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone, but lack a good leg,
I peel layers like onions, but still remain whole,
I can be long, like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole,
What am I?

If you look at me, you'll pop.
