Something really simple.

Post a riddle. See who gets it right. No turn order. Just post as you will.

With that being said...

I have a mouth, but I do not eat.
I have a bed, but I do not sleep.
I have a bank, but I have no money.
What am I?

    You are trapped inside a narrow room. There is a single locked door at the end. Next to it on the wall hang three keys labeled A, C, and D. You are told that one of the keys will set you free. One of the other keys will trigger a trap that will fling two razor-sharp blades you. The third key will trigger the trap to shoot three. Which key will you use?

    Dude, I can't tell if the riddle is figuring out the content of the riddle or not :-). Can you check to make sure you typed it correct?

    On my way to St. Ives I saw a man with 7 wives.
    Each wife had 7 sacks.
    Each sack had 7 cats.
    Each cat had 7 kittens.
    How many were going to St. Ives?

    A donkey travels the exact same distance daily.
    Strangely 2 of his legs travels 40 kilometers and the remaining two travels 41 kilometers.
    Obviously 2 donkey legs cannot be a 1km ahead of the other 2.
    The donkey is perfectly normal. So how can this be true ?

    Is the donkey walking on a map? Depending on map scale, it could end up with the front legs 1km ahead of the rear legs.....

    Not correct.

    The donkey is moving in circular path and hence outside legs travels more distance than inner legs

    Ok, for the more mathematically inclined in the group, lets take this one step further. Assuming the distance between the donkeys left legs and right legs is 30 cm how many times does the donkey walk around the circular path?

    Hmm, I posted this about 24 hours ago, and no one has responded yet. Isnt anyone interested? This really isnt too difficult.

    Hint: Remember, one pair of legs walks 40 km, while the other walks 41 km.

    Well, my puzzle has not attracted any interest, so Ill give the solution and we can move on.

    Solution: In order for the distances to be 40 and 41 km the ratio of the radii of the two circles must be 40:41. Since their difference is 30 cm, the inner radius is 12 meters and the outer is 12.3. This means the donkey needs to make just over 530.5 circuits.

    If anyone wants more details send me a private message.

    We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.
