Re: **Riddle Me This** Game

That IS an old one... Is anybody here acquainted with The Sphinx?

Your answer, in all humility, is a man...

Not personally, although I do recall something about an abusive personality...

[According to legend, when the Sphinx's victims couldn't solve the riddle she posed, she killed them. And, of course, when it did get solved, she killed herself.]

Anyway, please excuse the interruption. Carry on with the riddling.

Re: **Riddle Me This** Game

I'm still puzzling over that earlier riddle, wondering if it's something akin to the past, history, memory, or the like...

In the meantime, here's another oldie:
A farmer with more ambition than money buys ten fruit trees. He says he's planting the trees in rows of four: Five rows of four, in fact. Can he do this; and, if so, how?

Re: **Riddle Me This** Game

taking shoots off each tree thus completing the 4 tree per row?
