    Yep. lol...you're good. See if you can guess this 3rd one:

    Riddle #3
    A woman shoots her husband.
    Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes.
    Finally, she hangs him.
    But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together.
    How can this be?

    PS: NO CHEATING PLEASE! That just defeats the whole point of this thread and spoils the fun for everybody.

    haha nope...but you're close! Real close...

    Here's a hint: Her husband is NOT an object, but the 'thing' she SHOT, HELD UNDERWATER, and HUNG, was. Think of what her profession might be ;)

    She's a photographer. She shoots a picture of him, then she develops him in water and finally hangs the picture up.

    -clapclap Correct! Gosh, you guys are good! Are these riddles too easy, or have you already heard them before?

    Riddle #4
    A man kills his wife. Many people watch him doing so.
    Yet no one will ever be able to accuse him of murder. Why?

    cause the man is a clown and clowns have diplomatic immunity? i was thinking that the ppl dont charge him on murder anyways, the police do, they're just witnesses. And after thinking for awhile of other possibilties ive concluded the man must be a clown ROFL

    Because he is a policeman? His wife was about to commit a serious crime and so he had to shoot her to prevent her from harming somebody else? I think there can actually be many correct answers to this question. renegade's answer, although somewhat bizarre sounds quite plausible also...*laff*

    Hahah all of you guys gave pretty good answers. But I think "shy" came the closest, sort of.

    The answer provided is: He is a hangman and she happened to be sentenced to death.

    But I agree that there could have been a variety of answers to this question. Overall, this was a bad riddle on my part -_-2 Try these next ones:


    Riddle #5:
    A guy bet his neighbor $100 dollars that his dog could jump higher than a house. Thinking this not possible, the neighbor took the bet and lost.
    Why did he lose the bet?

    Riddle #6
    David's dad has 3 sons. Their names are Snap, Crackle, and ______?
    (this one's easy!)

    it seem simple. << at least i think so. -.^

    riddle 5
    it was a doll house. since he did not state that his dog can jump higher than his house. therefore assuming that would be false.

    riddle 6

    6 is right. 5 is not right. He DID mean a real house. :p

    Because the house could not jump. I think I heard a similar one before.

    <_< You're no fun. LOL j/k...yeah, that's the right answer. Here's trickier one:

    Riddle #7
    A magician, had a water glass that was filled to the top. Holding the glass above his head he let it drop to the carpet without spilling a single drop of water.

    How could he manage to drop the glass from a height of six feet and not spill any water?

    even though it's a water glass, it's not filled with water?
