Riddles for Rep Points
I wanted to give out some more rep points, so I thought a couple of riddles would be in order. These three riddles aren't too hard, although I am looking for specific answers (especially the third riddle). Now, the catch is that you cannot google them. While I have no way of knowing if you did or not, I hope to impress upon you the honor system. If you don't know them right off your head, don't answer.
1. What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at night, and three legs in the evening?
2. What is the best way to destroy an enemy?
3. What influences every human being in every action that they do? (This is kind of an open ended question, so I'll consider other alternatives to the answer that I have.)

Re: Riddles for Rep Points
1. Walking on four legs represent man in his infancy...crawling on all fours.
Walking on two legs represents man in the middle years, walking tall and proud, achieving goals.
Walking on three legs represents man in old age, using a cane, after years of weary back breaking work.
2. The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend.
I don't really know 3...
I hope my reply is good.

Re: Riddles for Rep Points
I knew the first one from way back.
I was thinking the same on the second.
My answer for the third is perspective
My riddle is: What is the longest word in the English language?

... by rearranging the letters I came up with the 10 letter gem of languishes... perhaps that's not what you wanted... but that's what you're getting...
Beautiful on the surface,
ugliness underneath,
I grow in darkness,
My eyes do not see
what am I?

Re: Riddles for Rep Points
I can imagine alot of other clothing items that also would be...funnier. But staying true to the riddle, I'd have to say you are correct. Technically it is "a shoe", but I am not picky.

Re: Riddles for Rep Points
Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.
