    OK, very simple:

    A family has 7 children. Half of them are boys. How is this possible?

    I suspect that this is too easy......

    How many times can you subtract 6 from 30?

    I can't think of any off the top of my head (and work is a touch busy at the mo) so I'll open it up.

    Man

    In the morning of his life (a baby) he crawls on all fours
    In the afternoon of his life he walks on two legs
    In the evening of his life he uses a walking stick...

    It was supposed to be the riddle used by the Sphinx.

    (Alternative answers include:

    A Racehorse that has a tragic accident, followed by transplant surgery
    Me, at KFC

    :roll: )

    Of course you are absolutely correct, even down to the equine & K.F.C references!

    I used to be a fan of 'And Now, In Colour'

    If anybody gets that referance, I'll be surprised...

    Again, open question.

    Your turn.
    (I hate the thought that I should think of questions you don't know..... it's near impossible.)

    On which side does a dog have most of its hair?

    Stix: though I had heard the light switch riddle before, I didn't remember the answer, so I figured that one out by myself. The one above, I did know. Thanks for the compliment by the way. :)
