Ok people, put your thinking caps on. Gonna start posting up some riddles that you can figure out.

Basic Rules:

1. The first poster to solve the riddle gets the point, nobody who solves it after will receive credit.
2. You are only aloud one attempt at solving the riddle, so make your post count! If i catch you editing i'll have to hit you with my disqualifying hammer.
3. No random off-topic posts. You may discuss each others answers or the riddles themselves but nothing not in relation to the topic. I'll hit the shiny delete button if any pop up.
4. Don't post up new answers to previous riddles.

Ok, after each riddle ends i'll post up a list of peoples scores. Each riddle will last for 3 days or until it is solved, after which i will post up a new one.

Here is the first riddle:

A farmer was going to town with a fox, a goose and a sack of corn. When he came to a stream, he had to cross in a tiny boat, and could only take across one thing at a time. However, if he left the fox alone with the goose, the fox would eat the goose, and if he left the goose alone with the corn, the goose would eat the corn. How does he get them all safely over the stream?


Good luck guys!

first take the goose from the right side over to the left and drop it off. go pack pick up the fox from the right and drop him off left and pick up the pick the goose back up from the left . now drop off the goose on the right. pick up the corn on the right drop it on the left with the fox. go back and pick up the goose from the right and bring it to the left.

My my, someones on the ball today. I'll post another up in a couple of hours, breakfast comes first.

Sorry for the delay.

Riddle number 2:

My life can be measured in hours,
I serve by being devoured.
Thin, I am quick
Fat, I am slow
Wind is my foe.

What am I?

Good luck.

Riddle number 3:

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.

What is it?

Good luck!
