The boat tips over, dumping the contents into the water. With the nuts and bolts in the water, will the water level in the bathtub rise, fall or stay the same as it was when the nuts and bolts were in the boat? also This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why? Study it, think about it, and you may find out. Try to do it without coaching. If you work at it for a bit it will dawn on you. So jump to it and try your skill at figuring it out. Good luck - don't blow your cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Rider Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Does anyone know the answer to my riddle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark king Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 ok i admit this was a hard one but not something totally unsolvable, though the rest of the riddles where more with simple logic, mine was more with a more inner view, but i have seen many bright people here on otakuboards who could have had a simmilair answer, well hope your guess was like it. riddle: Two sides that still remain, even after years of strain, as bad luck covered by my vanity, in me dwells insanity. answer: Reflection of the mind, as my two sides state my charismatic and treacherous face, mirroring eyes wich when looked upon shine with such intensity, it will deform your reality, only to return to it and not being able to tell where you are anymore, lost between a one shot decision, of wich way it`s safe to stay and you dare not make it and inside the mirror dwells insanity that is you. just pm me if you want more of these.

Rezzard Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 The "white chest" has to be an egg. Although i do prefer them scrambled in which case smashing them is alright. [QUOTE]at 9 oclock it walks on four legs, at noon it walks on 2, and at 6 it walks on 3. what is it.[/QUOTE] This a man. We start by crawling on 4 legs, then we walk upright on 2 and at the end of our life on 3 with a cane being a third. Unless you've got a walker then it's 6 or a electricwheelchair then you're driving around town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
