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?

I think I was the only person to get this one right:

You're in a place called "Bobby's World" and there is only one law. There is a mirror but no reflection. There is a pizza with cheese, but no meat. There is pepper, but no salt. There is a door, yet no entrance or exit.

So what is the law in Booby's world?

Curses!

OK, OK, if you solve this one you're a genius.

Smeldos, pb and I are getting you're party ready for when you finish this postathon. We decide to test your cleverness. You must cut a birthday cake into exactly eight pieces, but you're allowed to make three straight cuts, and you're not allowed to move pieces as you cut.

Can you do it?
