    Default riddle

    What is greater than God,
    More evil than the devil,
    The poor have it,
    The rich need it,
    And if you eat it, you'll die?



    Think on this. I'll onlypost the answer tommorow night if no one gets it.

    Well, the cats out of the bag! The answer is nothing.... I found it on a site I was browsing through and it claimed that children had an easier time guessing the answer than adults. Who knows if that's true...I couldn't figure it out, by the way!

    Here's a puzzler?

    If you have two indentical cylinders of water which are 10 metres deep and have one (X), at 30 degrees F and one (Y), at 30 degrees C, you take two identical 100g metal balls and drop one into each cylinder at the same time. You measure the time it takes for each to reach the bottom. What is the result.

    A. They reach the bottom at exactly the same time?
    B. Y First but time difference is negligible?
    C. X First but time difference is negligible?
    D. Y First time difference is measurable?
    E. X First time difference is measurable?
