Two Riddles today
When I point up it's bright, but when I point down it's dark. What am I?
I can be cracked, I can be made. I can be told, I can be played. What am I?
Leave your answer or, if you want to post a question of your own, send me an e-mail. Look in the about section to find my e-mail address. If it's new, I'll post it soon.
Please don't leave spam or 'Awesome blog, come visit mine' messages. I'll delete them soon after.
First one is a light switch, although not if it's installed upside down.
ReplyDeleteSecond one, I'm gonna say joke. You can crack a joke, make a joke, tell a joke, or play a joke.
lightswitch with the caveat mentioned above.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say fool to the second, but joke seems better.
My answers are a light switch (I didn't even think of the installation issues) and a joke.
ReplyDeleteThe only issue I see with fool is the cracked part. I suppose you could crack a fool, but why would you? :-)
