Compare it to anything which is longer than it is.

You are correct! Here's another riddle:

You get lost in a dense forest and some tribal people get hold of you. Now these savage people want to make a game out of you! They hang you upside down from a tree with a rope. The other end is tied to a nail on the ground. Now, they light a small candle beneath the end of the rope on the ground. To make it more interesting, these idiots bring a hungry tiger from somewhere and place it beneath the tree and they leave. Now, the candle will slowly burn the rope, you will fall and the tiger will make you his dinner. How will you save yourself?

Come back tomorrow for the answer.

Sing happy birthday... d(^_^d )

You are correct! After the song ends, the tiger will blow out the candle and you'll be saved. But then you'll have to figure out how to get yourself down!

Here's a new riddle:

One night, a man and his wife were driving to a certain place. All of a sudden the car stopped. The man realized that he would need to pour some cold water into the carburetor. He asked his wife to sit inside the car and lock the doors, while he goes searching for the water. After sometime, when the man returns, he finds this wife dead in a pool of blood. Besides her, there was a stranger with no clothes on his body. Who was the stranger and how did his wife die?

Pregnant wife. She had given birth in the car. Stranger was their child.

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if the man burnt the car and walked back home with his baby. I don't know how you could drive in that thing after that.

Obviously the misdirection with the door locking, blood and stranger was working an I thought she had been assaulted and raped, but which rapist takes all their clothes off? Committing a crime in a birthday suit... And then it hit me.

You are close but that's not the answer.

A cowboy rode into town on Friday, stayed three days, and rode out again on Friday. How did he do that?

You are correct, Mithridates. Here's a new one:

I will provide an answer sometime tomorrow morning.

You are correct, Zat! Better luck next time, GM Unicorn. Here's another riddle:

2 fathers and 2 sons go fishing. Each of them catches one fish. So why do they bring home only 3 fish?

Lame pocket watch? Hangover? Time zones? "Three Days" is a pub?

One fish each, three fish, means we have three people, we'll call them A, B and C.

A is B's father.
B is C's father.
(A is C's grandfather).

That's two fathers.

B is A's son.
C is B's son.
(C is A's grandson).

That's two sons.

Either that or they lose one of the fish on the way home.
