A murderer has been condemed to death. For his punishment, he must choose between three rooms. The first room is filled with a raging fire, the second has six assassins each with loaded firearms and the third, a room with twelve hungry lions which haven't eaten in over two months.

 

Which room will he have the best chance to survive in?

looks like after two months without food the lions would be dead.

Here is another:

 

I have a mouth, but I do not speak;

I have one eye, but cannot see;

I have a bed, but don't sleep;

Can you tell me who I am?

If I had given you the riddle as follows:

 

I have a mouth, but I do not speak;

I have four eyes, but cannot see;

I have a bed, but don't sleep;

Can you tell me who I am?

 

If this is enough information for someone to answer "Mississippi" ,then why isn't the riddle I chose to post not enough information to answer "Ohio". I fail to understand why you find this unfair???

[rockytriton]

well, I would say a river, but the eye part gets me.

[rockytriton]

well, there is an 'i' in river, so maybe it is river.

Close but no cigar.

A river is the only answer I can think of as well... I give :doh:...

[infamous]

The Ohio river.

[Dark Mind]

Hey! That's not fair! That has two eyes ( "I" 's )!

[infamous]

Hey! That's not fair! That has two eyes ( "I" 's )!

Not so Ohio only has one i.

[Dark Mind]

But Ohio wasn't the answer... The answer was "The Ohio River"... which contains two "I" 's :doh:.

No, the answer is Ohio, if your from Ohio and your talking about The Ohio, your refering to the river. Just like if your from Mississippi and your talking about The Mississippi your talking about the river.

I must admit that I threw you guys a little curve there, the answer to this riddle was originally Mississippi. I just change the clues from 4 eyes to 1 eye and substituted Ohio for the answer. Real sneaky of me, I must say.

[Dark Mind]

Especially without giving us sufficient information to correctly answer the question :doh:.
