You come across a door you know you must enter, but the door is sealed. Across the top of the door is writen in a different language from your own. You can see it says "Speak, friend, and enter." What do you say? enterawesome

"Friend", presumably. :P

"Mellon", then?

Or "friend and enter"?

I know this is one of those "the answer is in the text" riddles. :P

I don't think you'll ever figure it out. You were sort of right when you said friend, but what is friend in elvish? Discover this and you will have the answer... *mysteriously fades away*

You don't think I'll figure it out when the post you quoted contained the translation of "friend" in elvish?

I would translate the "and enter" part too, but there seems to be no elvish word for "enter".

The term "Elvish" is too general, you'll never know.

This one is extremely hard:

The thieves spent 6 hours in the home of Ted Duda. At first they searched the house, trying to find where he hid his huge diamond, valued at half a million dollars.
Then they tried beating the information out of him. They fled at dawn, fearing detection.
Fatally hurt, Duda crawled to his desk and typed a note to his partner, John Madden. In a desperate race to type it before he bled to death, he near blindly typed his death note.

It read:

John -- four men tried to make me tell where I had hidden the diamond. At first they looked through the house, raving like madmen. Then, in desperation, the barbarians split open the cat! When all failed, they beat me, but I did not tell. I'm dying. The diamond The diamond is hidden in the vane."

"Duda died this morning," Inspector Winters told Dr. Haledjian. "We have his murderers, but not the diamond."
The inspector handed Haledjian a copy of the death note. "We took down the vane, the weathervane, a ****, but there was nothing inside it," the inspector said, "We're still searching the house."
Haledjian read the note and said, "You also failed to find the body of the cat, but you did find a broken barrel of liquor."
"Why, yes," said the inspector. "The thieves were throrough. They broke the barrel and every bottle in Duda's little wine cellar."
"How many walking sticks did Duda own?"
The inspector looked puzzled. "One."
"It must be hollow," said Haledjian. "You'll find the diamond inside it."

The inspector found the diamond, but how did Haledjian know?

since he was dying he mistakenly switched v an c when he was typing. they slip open the vat, and they were racing, not raving. finally, it is cane, not vane. i read this in encylopedia brown(lol) did you use that and just make a new story for it?

Polly Perkins was after a talking parrot, so she went to the local pet shop in hope of securing such a find. She was in luck. The shop assistant assured her that the parrot would learn and repeat any word or phrase it heard. Polly was delighted. However, a week later, the parrot still hadn't spoken a word. Polly returned to the shop to complain, however, it appeared that the assistant was accurate in what he had said,and refused a refund. Why didn't the parrot talk?

Has the blue eyes paradox been used yet? 100 blue eyes, 100 brown eyes, and a guru with green eyes are all on an island. Each night they gather and one night the guru says, "I see someone with blue eyes". These people do not know their own eye colors. The ones that find out their own eye colors have to leave the island. Who leaves the island and on what night? No reflective surfaces or anything.

How about this one...

A prisoner is enclosed in a room. This roon has no doors, no windows and no other hole large enough for him to escape from. He has no tools; no assistance. He does have a table and chair in the center of the room. The room is quite large; the walls are two feetthick. How can the prisoner escape?

Something to do with cutting the table in half and putting it together to make a "hole", but I don't remember how he does it.

[QUOTE="L_17"]

here's one

A man with no eyes sees two pears on a tree, he takes no pears and he leaves no pears. How is this possible?

JIT93

He bumped into the trees and the pears fell?

lol i never thought of that one. The answer to this riddle lies in the use of plurals.The man didn't have eyes he had one eye that's how he was able to see. He didn't take pears or leave pears because he took "a pear" and thus leftone pear. Tricky eh?
