"Riddle Challenge"

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 reckon the light has something to do with it, or either the car.
