This. :)

Yes it is this, I figure you know why, so lets see if someone else can explain this?

Good job by the way.

[adam_89]

Well, the whole thing is suspicious... only thing that I think remains are:

the assistant first said 'a' guest, then he said there was apartner.
the assistant had the time to take, hide, and look at what page he hid the paper in the presence of the gunman's partner.

Unky, go off NK's answer, you might be able to explain why he concluded this from hearing that?

[Unknown008]

I know what he means, but can't there be any book where the page count starts on the left? :o

I am not sure Unky. As far as I knew every book started with 1 on the right page.

[morgaine300]

I'm pretty sure all books do start with 1 on the right. I caught that one immediately, but every time I know one, someone else always beats me. (That's what happens when you work weird shifts and don't get on until late.)

Did anyone ever figure out the sack one?

And has anyone but J noticed the new lateral thinking puzzle? Or are we pooped out on those?

As the official b@stard to stir the pot that was calm...

We don't know the language in which the book was written... if it was hebrew or persian the first page would be on the right and read "in reverse" order... so... it is entirely possible to have thy document 'tween those page counts.

I'm a snot.

And has anyone but J noticed the new lateral thinking puzzle? Or are we pooped out on those?

I've seen it. I'm just off the lateral thinking threads after my absolute mental flameout on the first one.

Yes, you are. ;) That just ruins the joke of it. Or I should say, there wouldn't be any way to solve it unless we made the assumption that it's not Hebrew or something. A real detective would need to check such things, but in a puzzle we just assume we don't need to check.

Well, just pour a little bourbon on the flame... oh wait, no, not good. Um, some baking soda then. Yes, but put some baking soda on the flame and all should be well.

I don't think I saw that... or was it something about an owner and a helper thing carrying a sack?
If that's it, then it was solved.

Well, all is fine by me and your added knowledge, but as said before I said this, since the answer to the riddle is that it could not be between those pages, it must be written in English so good try and you gave me a laugh anyway.

I think all the ones in the lateral thinking puzzle have been solved so there has been nobody there and since my riddle wasn't really one like that, I posted it here, but anyway I like the ones in the other thread so please post more.

[morgaine300]

Yes, that one. Solved when? I don't recall seeing it, or not anything that was correct.

No, it's a new thread that's been mostly ignored, like it just hit page 2. Unky said he just now found it. (No one was posting so it wouldn't be showing up in subscribed lists. Er, sorry, alerts list. :rolleyes:)

I can post more on the other riddle thread, once I'm home and can get to them. I'm sure others have more.

[adam_89]

I was not ignoring it just so you know. I keep checking it but there has been nothing new added so I therefore people don't go there and can't solve any riddles.

As for the one about the grain and the sacks. I believe it was Kit who said something about the farmer was carrying the grain and the helper carried two empty sacks. You then said, correct. I don't know if it was about that or not but I am sure it was assumed that way by others as well. If that is not the correct answer then, Sorry.

Yes, it's been difficult to follow new threads on the ffStyle, but now that v2 is back, it's much easier! :p

Ok, lets bring this back to life here, I will start with an easy one:

I am the child of a father also the child of a mother, I remain to be no ones son, who am I?

The daughter

A daughter?

[adam_89]

Very good, told you it was easy? You want another easy one?

[adam_89]

The person who builds it, doesn't want it. The person who bought it, doesn't use it. The person who sues it, never saw it. What is it?

This was said before I think. A coffin
