A wonderful suggestion by the lovely Sleepy. The return of a thread full of riddles. Lets see how smart you all are. :D

Here, I'll post a few to get started, can you solve them? If you want, post your own. Remember, no cheating ;)

----

Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

A beggar's brother died, but the man who died had no brother. How could that be?

A word I know, six letters it contains, subtract one, and twelve remains. What am I?

A psychological test I learnt from university:

A father and his son are travelling in a car which is hit head on by a lorry. The father is killed instantly.

The son survives and is rushed to hospital in a critical condition and goes straight into theatre for life saving surgery.

The surgeon goes to perform surgery on the boy and says "I can't operate on this boy, he's my son!"

How can that be?
