but here it is..
your in a room with no doors and no windows. the only furnature you have is a table. how do you get out?[/quote]
Oh, lord, my grandpa used to tell me this one until i died....
It's a play on words and you need to say it out loud to get it.
Okay, Bang your head on the table until it is sore
Use the saw to cut the table in two
two halves make a whole
climb out the hole and scream until your voice goes hoarse
Ride the horse into the sunset.... [img]http://s4.images.proboards.com/tongue.gif" alt=":P" border="0"/>

good one flit!
i wasnt sure anyone would get it... just for that you get chocca!
ok, heres a few of my favourites:
If you look you cant see me. If you see me you can see nothing else. I can make you walk, when you cannot. Sometimes i speak the truth. If i lie, i am nearer the truth. what am i?
Golden treasures i contain, guarded by hundreds and thousands
stored in a labrynth where no man walks, yet men often come to seize my gold
By smoke I am overcome and plundered
then left to build my treasure anew.
what am i ?
one for the religo nuts:
what is it that god can never see, yet we see every day?
and old faithful:
this thing all things devours
birds beasts trees flowers
gnaws iron, bites steel
and grinds hard stones to meal
slays kings, ruins towns and
even beats high mountains down.
what am i?
the last one (old faithful) is time

Haven't had time to work out the others yet

a beehive it is!
i have no idea about the others though...
umm...i need some time to think...
*thinking music begins*
As a whole, I am both safe and secure.
Behead me, and I become a place of meeting.
Behead me again, and I am the partner of ready.
Restore me, and I become the domain of beasts.
What am I?
I know a word of letters three.
Add two, and fewer there will be.
Whilst I was engaged in sitting
I spied the dead carrying the living.
What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

Not sure about this one, though I suspect the answer is easy

A river
only one? D**m! Oh well...
*wanders off to find thinking cap..*
I know of a word of letters three
add two and fewer there'll be
is "few"
Gah! Of course! D**m my muddled brain!
the very first one is 'stable'
yep!
stable means safe and secure
table is where people meet at
able is the partner of ready (ready and able)
and stable again is a place where beasts dwell
i like that riddle
clever
still got
Whilst I was engaged in sitting
I spied the dead carrying the living.
is it a wooden ship?
A wooden ship can be made entirely out of dead materials, and carries the living
here's an easy one for you:
I live above a star, and yet I never burn, I have eleven neighbours, and yet none of them turn, I am visited in sequence, first, last or in between, PQRS are my initials. Now, tell me what I mean.
yep it's a ship
i was going to put that riddle on here too. the answer is the number 7 on a telephone/mobile
