5 Riddles

These are five awesome riddles that I couldn't answer (except five...i got that one xD) but once I read the answers I'm was like 'ohhhhhhhhh!' xDDD (the answers are in the spoiler tags)

Riddle Number One
A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires. The second is full of assassins with loaded guns. The third is full of lions who haven't
eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

Spoiler:
	The third room. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead. That one was easy, right?

Riddle Number Two
A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together.
How can this be?

Spoiler:
	The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband, developed it, and hung it up to dry (shot; held under water; and hung).

Riddle Number Three
What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

Spoiler:
	Charcoal, as it is used in barbecuing.

Riddle Number Four
Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?

Spoiler:
	Sure you can name three consecutive days, 'yesterday, today, and tomorrow!'

Riddle Number Five
This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. Study it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

Spoiler:
	The letter e, which is the most common letter used in the English language, does not appear even once in the paragraph.

Aren't they awesome? How did you do?

darkness from. the fight for truth and justice
may continue. but the light has already won;
the light has shined it's spirit on those darkness
has tried to take. the dark will never truly win.

**StrangeBlueEyes** · Subject: Re: 5 Riddles Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:19 pm

i got 1 and 3 alone! yay!!!!

i'd heard 4, but i'd forgotten it.

number 5 wasn't so much a riddle as it was an interesting fact kinda thing.
and 2 is technically wrong, if you look at it. it says she held HIM underwater, when it was actually the picture... lol.

I feel silly right now.

I missed the obvious about number one and number
