He just had a good night, which is why he's satisfied. He turned on the music, and by MERE COINCIDENCE it is the same music he played the night he killed his girlfriend, an incident his concience had been bearing for a while. Thoughts race in his head as he hears the music. He switches radio stations to distract himself, but the more he tries to stop thinking, the harder it is for him to stop wallowing in guilt (kind of like the irony that the things we try to forget are the thinks which are preserved most sharply in our memories). He has a long drive ahead of him before he can seek anyone else's counsel, and eventually he can't take it anymore. His reckless driving almost caused a car accident and took yet ANOTHER life. That is the final straw, so he pulls over to spare everyone else trouble, and kills himself. I'm sure that is not the answer that whoever asked the riddle was looking for, but it works, doesn't it? Actually, ONE of the things that you said in all of that is semi correct. But the answer as a whole is WAY off. |

Do you want a hint? You'll notice that he is driving BACK to work.

Peachi, sorry to break the news to you, but youre using the wrong wording. Huh. That was the very first wording I heard, and actually, I once heard it was the original wording, but then I found another one. That riddle just throws everyone off anyways. Sorry about the little misunderstanding. ^^ As for spoiling the other riddle--oops! I promise I shall never do it again! |

I have heard E1 twice - I know the answer, and I want to give others a chance. I did however solve that riddle by myself - I didn't have to be told the answer.
I know that I did not give the "correct" answer to the DJ riddle, but I didn't write too bad of a soap opera considering I did it in less than five minutes, no?

E1(classification: logic): In front of you there are three light switches. They go to three seperate light bulbs in a room that is not visible from where you are. Your challenge is to determine which light switch goes to which light bulb without looking at the room with the lights more than once. How will you do it? Err...open the door and keep your hand on the light switches...and then turn them on one by one! Just kidding--I have no idea. |

EDIT: In Ember's post below, she clearly is unhappy with the hint I gave,. I don't think it's such a major hint, but it's her riddle, and I respect that. AND DON'T LOOK AT HER POST - SHE HAS THE HINT QUOTED! |

Here are some more: - A cowboy rides into a town on Friday. Exactly three days later he leaves the town on Saturday. How is this possible? Medium- A woman works at the 11th floor of a tall apartment building. One day, while at the window, she falls asleep. Well, since she's sitting at the window and falls asleep with her head on the glass, the window creaks open and she falls through! But don't feel sorry for her--she makes it to the ground unharmed! Now, how does she do that? {No, she didn't have a parachute. No, she wasn't on the bottom floor.} A Bit Hard- There is an all-green one-story house. The plates are green, the carpets are green, the mirrors are green. What color is the upstairs bathroom? Easy Peasy!- Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the tallest mountain in the world? Very Easy1) Umm... time warp!!! Err... I'll get back to that. 2) Is there stuff on the bottom? Well, I've heard people survive falling from the 11th floor before... eerrr... maybe she works on the 11th floor, but she wasn't at the 11th floor when she was sleeping...? 3) No bathroom!! 4) Mount Everest? |

I guess my first riddle was either too stupid or too hard for anyone to answer...it's on page 3 if anyone wants to take a whack at it.
Here's another one for your my pleasure:
What can be in your pocket and yet have no mass?
