Yep, more riddles....

Just wanted to post some more for fun...(not points, as a Google might turn up the answer)...

1. Never was, am always to be, no one ever saw me, nor ever will. And yet I am the confidence of all to live and breathe on this terrestrial ball. What am I?

2. You throw away the outside and cook the inside. Then you eat the outside and throw away the inside. What is it?

3. Two brothers we are, great burdens we bear, all day we are bitterly pressed; Yet this I will say - we are full all the day, and empty when we go to rest. What are we?

tomorrow

Tomorrow, or the future, either works...

Shoes is correct...

Give up on the food yet???

The food answer is corn on the cob.

Mmmmm, corn on the cob....... and super easy to make in the microwave too!

That's the one...

microwave??? That's for re-heating only, in the south...

Naw...we boil it first, then wrap it up in tin foil with butter and salt, and put it over the grill to smoke.... Now THAT'S corn on the cob!

I have no grill. I lost it in the divorce. Pity me......

On a lighter note, it's funny how many things a man will trade away for a BBQ.

Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.
I'm double, I'm single,
I'm black, blue, and gray,
I'm read from both ends,
And the same either way.
What am I?

1. What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?

A towel

A river

Now...how many of you are just googling the answers?

Be honest

A certain crime is punishable if attempted but not punishable if committed. What is it?

Suicide.........

:shk: Don't do it!

I have a bunch of riddles; but I'll start out with a few:

1. Weight in my belly
Trees on my back
Nails in my ribs
Feet I do lack

2. All about, but cannot be seen,
Can be captured, yet cannot be held
No throat have I, but a voice I do have

3. If a man carried my burden
He would break his back
I am not rich
But leave silver in my track

Apparently men get quite attached to their BBQ. It's a testosterone thing, I guess.

There is an alternate answer for this one, besides the one MemoryShock gave. I'll let someone else try it though.
