I hate you so much. Well anyway, since you didn't really get it, I'll tell you the answer. (Score one for Myriad!)

 

King of Diamonds

 

Highest rank, meaning the King

Unless the first, meaning the Ace (first meaning one)

Full, meaning the picture of him on the card has little blanks

Make you burst, meaning a burst of excitement (in most card games, its great to gave a King)

 

One of a Kind, meaning no other cards that are the same

Formal wear, meaning a suit

Man of wisdom, meaning you must use him wise

In your hand is very fair, meaning when you have a King in your cards (hand), you are playing very fair.

 

Three good friends, meaning the other Kings of the other three suits

All with swords in their hands, meaning they all have swords in their hands.

Our bond never ends, meaning they are always together (in a deck)

Different in thy lands, meaning that he is the only one without a sword in his hand (he has an ax)

 

The riddle:

 

A magician was boasting one day at how long he could hold his breath under water. His record was 6 minutes. A kid that was listening said, "that's nothing, I can stay under water for 10 minutes using no types of equipment or air pockets!" The magician told the kid if he could do that, he'd give him $10,000. The kid did it and won the money. Can you figure out how?

Lol, sorry about that. I couldn't find a right one. This one I like, you have to figure out all the riddles, and then put them together: And you have One Answer!

 

1st riddle:

What is usually beaten,

But seldom thrashed,

Is as smooth as a pebble,

But NEVER smashed?

 

2nd Riddle:

What's always ground,

But never underfoot,

Is as white as pearl,

But as black as soot?

 

3rd Riddle:

What lies before flies,

And fingers and cup,

And is spread upon bread,

Before eating it up?

 

4th Riddle:

What's made out of crystal,

Is sold as grain,

But grows in the feild,

As beet or cane?

Hmm, tough one :eh:. The first one could be eggs, but that doesn't quite fit (last line). I'm not sure about the second one. Is the third one butter?

Ooh! You got it! It's not that hard, see!

 

Can you identify what the riddle is talking about?

 

Such manners!

They visit every single house

And wish to stay and eat.

When they get their food,

They tread it with their feet.

We wish these visitors would go away,

They don't say thank you,

They never pay

Please leave us alone!

Ooh I hate flies! Yeah, that's right. Flies.

 

Would you rather a crocodile attack you or an alligator?

A young woman in a restaurant was approached by a tearful old lady who said, "You look so like my own daughter who passed away last year. Could you do me a favor and say 'Good-bye, Mother' when I leave?"

 

The young woman happily agreed and said, "Good-bye, Mother" when the old lady left. Later she got a shock. What was it?

Oh i know the answer to that one! I've heard the groceries version, though.

 

The answer: the lady told the waiter that her "daughter" will pay for the whole meal. So therefore, the shock was that the woman got the bill and so she had to pay for it because of what the lady made her say.

Yes, correct! I like the alligator one, it's pretty clever. And the lady one was right, too. :)

 

his one is a sciency one;

 

Swaff is sitting at his desk, being cool, when his younger brother Geemiee walks up. Geemiee had recently been practicing his (fake) magical powers, trying to turn cheese into more cheese, so he believes he can beat Swaff in anything. He sets up a little competition, the first to get 5 ounces of water to freeze, will be proclaimed the coolest guy in their home.

 

 

They set up some rules, as follows:

-They both can only use normal water that comes out of their stainless steel faucet.

-They both use identical containers

-They both must use the same freezer, at the same time.

 

 

Now, Swaff realizes that if he was to lose, he would become less cool, he just doesn't roll like that. So, how can Swaff have the best chance of winning over Geemiee?
