Riddle Me This (see who can figure this one out!) Test your brain power!!

"What word am I"
______________________________________________________________

There is a common English word that is
nine letters long. Each time you remove
a letter from it, it still remains an
English word - from nine letters right
down to a single letter.

What is the original word, and what are
the words that it becomes after removing
one letter at a time?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Put on your thinking caps ATS'rs. Let's see who the resident smartypants is around here. This is a tough one! First one to guess right will hold the title of "ATS Know-it-all AND will get to post the NEXT riddle. Good luck!!

well it has to start with an A or an I because those are the only two single letters that have any many in the engilish language.

lol I had someone send this to me.

McGuirk

j00 r wrong imo.

I will guess

STARTLING

I think the riddle is worded poorly.
I never would have gotten it because I read the instructions wrong..

googleftw

The answer may startle you

for some reason, I thought you started with a nine-letter word and removed the LAST letter, to reveal an eight letter word and so on down to a one letter word.

:w:

SAURON - YOU ARE THE JACKPOT WINNER!!!!

The pitcher, catcher, and infielders except Allen, Harry, and Andy, are shorter than Sam. Paul, Andy, and the shortstop lost $50 each at the racetrack. Paul, Harry, Bill, and the catcher took a trouncing from the second baseman at pool. Sam is involved in a divorce suit. The catcher and the third baseman each have two children.

What is.....

Greater than God

More Evil than the devil

The Rich need it

The poor already have it

and if you eat it, you will die

Sorry Sauron...thought you had gone to bed mate...good riddle. I will have to think for a bit. Cheers again to the first ever ATS smartypants SAURON

Well...the only thing I can figure is that the answer would be nothing. What can be greater than God and more evil than the devil? Nothing could. Just a wild guess, but if that's not the answer then I have no clue!

Riddle #2!!!! Crack this one if you can!!!!

Let's see if we can seperate the men from the boys (or girls) here..this one won't be so easy....good luck!!

Muhahahaha!!!!!..lol
