When they show a dog on TV, do you try to get your dog to see the other dog on TV? I do. "Look at the doggie! Over there!" He won't look. Even if you try to twist his head around and point to the TV, he still won't look. They never look where you want. If you point at something, they just stare at your hand.

Yep pimpboy you got it.

LOL oohboy, the boat would sink if they hung onto the side.

Thanks, Ms. Pikmin

And you, twinkletoes, cannot deny the validity of my answer!

twinkletoes · « **Reply #28 on:** December 03, 2003, 01:44:48 PM »

No of course I can't. Eating subway to lose pounds is an exellent way to get off the island. I would totally except your answer, only that really isn't the real one. Believe me, if I had made the riddle up, I would have put your awsome answer instead of mine.

Hostile Creation is da BOMB!

Edit: calling the coast guard is an awsome idea too, but I like the subway one better.

Actually, I believe he meant this answer... ^_^ Which makes a whole lot more sense than the correct one...

Could it be Slimfast, then? Is that right?

LOL your getting closer Hostile Creation.

Uh. . . the Atkins diet? Diet pills? A standard diet and lots of exercise?

Am I even on the right track?

Let's move more into eating disorders. They became anorexic?
________________________________________________________________

This riddle is very difficult (got it straight from some website):

You have 9 gold coins. All 9 coins look exactly the same but one coin is a fake and is either lighter or heavier than the other 8 coins. You have a scale - balance type with 2 trays - but can only load it twice. How do you find the fake gold coin?

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #34 on:** December 03, 2003, 03:56:10 PM »

Bulemic is also a possibility. Or maybe liposuction was involved. . .

manunited4eva22 · « **Reply #35 on:** December 03, 2003, 04:18:08 PM »

Hmmmm, I can't give a definate answe knowsnothing, but I have one that could work.

Load 4 coins to each side, and leave one out.

If they balance your one extra coin is it, if not, you have it down to 4.

If it goes past that it would be luck of the draw to see which of the two other coins would be the overweight coin.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #36 on:** December 03, 2003, 04:21:38 PM »

You're on the right track. But if the scales don't even out, you don't have it out to four because the fake coin can be either heavier OR lighter. You'd have it down to eight.

It's not luck of the draw, either. What kind of riddle would that be?

manunited4eva22 · « **Reply #37 on:** December 03, 2003, 04:34:19 PM »

Bah, riddle block has attackeds me, I know what your supposed to do, just can't figure out how to get it down into words. Oh well, those are my kind of riddles.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #38 on:** December 03, 2003, 05:06:03 PM »

Put 4 coins on either side...If they balance out, the remaining coin is fake...If not, then you have to take the top coin off each side at the same time...If the balance doesn't even out, the fake is still in one of the piles...Once you remove two and the balance becomes even, then the fake coin is one of those two...Measure the two coins(one by one) against one of the known real coins...Real one balances, fake one doesn't...Riddle solved...

The father or the son is hanging off the side of the boat in the water. As long as they don't try to pull themselfs up adding load to the boat, they weight nothing because they are supported but the water.

Shot bill.

Fish · « **Reply #40 on:** December 04, 2003, 01:59:13 AM »

I have no idea of that gold thingy, but the father and sons get off, if the 2 sons first use the boat to get off the isle, then other one returns and then stays on isle and father uses the boat to leave, then when the father reaches the other son, the other son uses to boat to pick up the other son from the isle. I think.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #41 on:** December 04, 2003, 09:44:29 AM »

Bill cheated.

(you did cheat didn't you?)

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #42 on:** December 04, 2003, 09:45:33 AM »

The riddle is common sense...There's no other way you could do it... ^_^

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #43 on:** December 04, 2003, 09:47:11 AM »

Common sense my SHOE.....

Seriously, I love riddles but I suck mightly at them. What's hard for me is easy for just about everyone else. :\

Stupid smart Bill. ;P

You don't weigh them. Lick all of them and lay them up your arm. Whichever one turns your skin green is the fake coin. Yay! I'm so smart! Whoohooo!

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #45 on:** December 04, 2003, 10:03:40 AM »

I tried that, but when I lay them down I was like, "I already have green skin" so I went into the bathroom and cried....just like every Friday night when I'm aaaaaaaalllll alone....

Licking coins is not a healthy thing to do, do you realize how many germs live and fester on coins?

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #47 on:** December 04, 2003, 10:06:04 AM »

*abruptly stops eating quarters*

....h-h-how many?

Ms.Pikmin · « **Reply #48 on:** December 04, 2003, 10:21:22 AM »

But these are gold coins. They're not in circulation like a quarter would be. So there! Gold coins=less germs.

Oh,wait. I got it. Since the gold coin would be pretty clean, then the fake is probably dirtier from all of the fraudulent use it's been given. So, lick them all and the one that makes you sick is the fake coin!

Well, you could always wash them with soap and water first, that way, you won't have to be eating germs...aren't I just so smart?

Edit: ignore Ian's idea, mines better
