Rules
I will give you a riddle, you then post the answer, no posting your own riddles(Message me if you have a good one for others to solve.), if you answer correctly, the first person to answer it will get one point, once a person solves a riddle they will be put on the list of glory and once you are on the list, solving more riddles will add to your score.

[To make it more fun, the list of glory will be in my sig, so your names will be more widely seen as riddle solvers :P, and I will try my best to post never before seen riddles. Later on I will have much harder riddles which will be worth more points.]

And for the most important rule - PLEASE do not use google to solve these riddles! What fun is it if your not thinking? What glory do you attain from being put on the list when you did not earn it?

No Editing posts inserting Answers! You got another answer to add to your post? Post it, don't edit.
