Challenge Riddle

Wow that was quick, now for a harder one.

If an airplane carrying the U.S. swim team crashed directly on the border between the United States and Canada, in which country would the survivers be buried???

I would presume the U. S., since they are citizens here. Regardless of where they perished.

RIP


Unless it is a trick question, something along the lines that they are not found by anyone, in that scenario, they would be buried where the plane crashed.

they don't bury survivors

What can bring back the dead; make us cry, make us laugh, make us young; born in an instant yet lasts a life time?

Mechanic opens mouth, inserts foot.

I missed that very important Key Word "survivors".

I would ask him:

"Did you read this entire thread?" If he say yes, I go down the other road.

My only guess is memories.

I'll put this one while I wait.

It is a specific day, it also does work, I promise.

In our calendar some months have 30 days and some months have 31 day. How many months have 28 days?

How many of each species did Moses put on the arc???

I looked up the answer to your day puzzle and I still don't get it. perhaps it is simply a result of my being totally fried

If you want, you can mull it over for a day, it is hard though.
Or do you want the answer?

I know the answer. I simply cannot wrap my mind around the whole cryptogram.

I am so sorry, read it now:

When the day after tomorrow is yesterday, today will be as far from wednesday as today was from wednesday when the day before YESTERDAY was tomorrow. What is the day after this day???

Missed a word...

as I said, I got the answer. this one is tough. the explanation I found on the web was still somewhat confusing but certainly clearer when you add the missing word into the original question.

My bad that one, straining your brain and I got it wrong.:bnghd:

Anyway:

Often talked of, never seen,
Ever coming, never been,
Daily looked for, never here,
Still approaching, coming near.
Thousands for it's visit wait
But alas for their fate,
Tho' they expect me to appear,
They will never find me here.

What is the poem about?

the sun'll come out.....


tomorrow

I'm off to wrestle my kids. here's one for you to mull over

I'm as small as an ant, as big as a whale. I'll approach like a breeeze, but can come like a gale. By some I get hit, but all have shown fear. I'll dance to the music, though I can't hear. Of names I have many, of names I have one. I'm as slow as a snail, but from me you can't run. What am I?

The only thing i can think is "Time".

The biggest clue to that is "you cant run from me"
But it can be big or small.
People fear time.
It can move slow.
It can hit you like a gale.

I could be completely wrong but this seems to fit.
Eagerly awaiting confirmation...
