Signature-------------- Sometimes we love people so much that we have to be numb to it. Because if we actually felt how much we love them, it would kill us.
I've taken it off the list, as I no longer have the time to make them.

"Riddle #152:What two words have thousands of letters in them?"
RockinNick got the answer right when he said "Post Office". Riddle #153: I am a three digit number. My tens digit is five more than my ones digit. My hundreds digit is eight less than my tens digit. What number am I?

Q. 154: A panda walks into a bar, he orders and eats some pasta, shoots the waiter and leaves. When he is in prison a police officer asks, "why did you do it" he says "check the dictionary". Later he escapes, how does he do it?
Congratulations, MusicLuver, you got it right! Look at the top of this page and contact a volunteer for a prize of your choice. (I love that panda riddle.) Riddle #155: Suppose you want to send in the mail a valuable object to a friend. You have a box which is big enough to hold the object. The box has a locking ring which is large enough to have a lock attached and you have several locks with keys. However, your friend does not have the key to any lock that you have. You cannot send the key in an unlocked box since it may be stolen or copied. How do you send the valuable object, locked, to your friend - so it may be opened by your friend?

You send the box to your friend first. They attach their own lock and send it back unlocked. You put the object in the bow, lock it and send it back. They can now open the lock because they would have the key
Signature-------------- Computerfan/Josh is in my head fighting for control *__* Call me Katie <:)
I suppose you could send the object, locked, to your friend. He puts his own lock on it, in addition to yours (since he can't unlock it) and sends it back. You can take your lock off now, since your friend's lock is there. You send it back, he has the key to his own lock so he can open the box.

Congrats, KT5! A soul was the correct answer. Feel free to contact a volunteer for the prize of your choice. Remember, you can only claim one prize a day, but feel free to keep answering them riddles! Riddle #157: James ordered a fishing rod, priced at $3.56. Unfortunately, James is an Eskimo who lives in a very remote part of Greenland and the import rules there forbid any package longer than 4 feet to be imported. The fishing rod was 4 feet and 1 inch, just a little too long, so how can the fishing rod be mailed to James without breaking the rules? Ideally James would like the fishing rod to arrive in one piece!
Signature-------------- I'm weary of fighting this alone, so tired of Holding onto Strings much Better left to Fray
Insert the fishing rod into a box which measures 4 feet on all sides, the fishing rod will fit within the diagonal of the box with room some room to spare
Congrats, Evelync7! That is correct. Feel free to contact a volunteer for the prize of your choice. Remember, you can only claim one prize a day, but feel free to keep answering them riddles!

Hey, wait...
Anyway, Roxy88, you're right! A library was the right answer. Go to the top of the page and contact a volunteer for the prize of your choice. Riddle #159: An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons, but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill their living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man bought?
