[firecrest]

I aught to be in bed really. Oh well... I thought some riddles could be fun. If you answer one, post one of your own.


1) The man who made it doesnt want it. The man who bought it doesnt need it. The man who needs it doesnt know it. What is it?

2) Say my name , and I'm gone. What am I?

3)What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps[FONT=Verdana,Helvetica,Arial]

4) The beginning of eternity
The end of time and space
The beginning of every end
And the end of every place[/FONT]
