Post one that you know. No repeats please! Read the ones already posted, try to solve them or post your own.

What was the tallest Mountain on earth before Mount Everest was discovered?

I am weightless, i have no odor or texture, yet when you put me in a bucket I make the bucket lighter, what am I?

Those are my two. Solve, Post your own, or do both.

1. That really tall mountain that's in the ocean. It's larger than Mt. Everest but not as high because part of it is under water. (Actual answer: Mt. Everest)
2. Nothing.
My 2: What is the capitol of Berlin?
When can you run but never have walked, where can you sing but never have talked?

A man had twelve toothpicks in front of him. He took one away. Now he had nine in front of him. How is this possible?

As for the 1$ riddle the Belhop has it..

No not quite. The Bellhop has two dollars and only two dollars as was stated quite clearly.

You ask the scary voice which one it is! Since its a intercom right? Meaning it works both ways!

For your insolence and clever thinking the voice as the intercom removed and replaces it with a speaker. Clever answer but not the correct one, or rather the correct answer I planed for.

another one: What goes around the world but stays in a corner?

a globe

no, thats not it. keep trying. hint: It travels on cubes and rectangles. hope thats a good hint, can't give too much away

Its that thing on maps.. I forgot its name i heard this riddle a long time ago..

Nope, still not it. It has nothing to do with maps.

Is it a cheque, or has something to do with money?

What are you talking about i thought it was a play on words... If the bellhop doesnt have it then there is no remainder! Because 3+2=5 and 25+5=30.. So there should be no remainder!

EDIT: OH I SEE! Where it says so the total has come to "27" One of the people didnt accept the 1$!

 

[oppp7]

You should all know this one.

Spoiler

What have I got in my pocket

The one ring to rule them all...or whatever it's name is...

 

[oppp7]

Answer to your #2 is: the letter B?

Correct! I'll try to think of more...

 

[Snork Maiden]

EDIT: Heh, thats what I get for not reading both pages of a thread.

Another one: What runs but never walks, has a mouth but never talks?

A printing press because it "RUNS" and has a mouth since it talks about daily things! In a metaphor kinda way! Unless the mouth is being literal then im completely wrong..

Nah, not quite right yet. Read the question closely again and again, it'll become clear. You're right that it is a play on words but you seem to be going in the wrong direction. All the people did accept their 1 dollar though.

Another one: What runs but never walks, has a mouth but never talks?

A river.

Here's one I like...

Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it,
Five in the middle is seen;
First of all figures, the first of all letters,
Take up their stations between.
Join all together, and then you will bring
Before you the name of an eminent king.

There is shattered glass & some water on the floor, but their bodies are unharmed & they did not drown.
How did they die?

They were poisoned?

Grrr... thought i had the answer. haha. how about a hint?

Hm...

While they lived in the same house, they barely knew one another.

Are they fish? They died because their bowl was broken?
