Riddles and Brain Teasers....Can You Guess What I Am?

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

F and Joanne posted a fun discussion recently (except for a very annoying spinning lady) and towards the end of the discussion, a couple of people started adding some riddles.  I thought it might be fun to make this a game, BUT the Honor System is involved. Please post your Riddle or Brain Teaser below in bold print. Let's all trying guessing the answer WITHOUT using our old pal, Google or any other helpful site. Let's try just using our own brainpower and see what happens. Good luck!!

What am I??

I am solid, but very soft. I am clear, but very colorful. What am I?

I will help you with the first one.......the answer is..........JELLY!

Now, for the next question.

No legs have I to dance,
No lungs have I to breathe,
No life have I to live or die
And yet I do all three.

Can you divide a cake in 8 pieces with three cuts?

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

yes, cut the height of the layer in 1/2 and then cut in 4 pieces a (one length wise and one width wise) = 8 pieces  (I don't want the bottom pieces though as there is no icing.)  Is there a way to do it where everyone gets icing?

We have had many conversations about cutting things in equal pieces because we have a Nephew that went to West Point.  In their Plebe (Freshman) year one of the things they are in charge of is serving the pie for desert.  The pie has to be cut in exact equal pieces for however many of the people at the table want dessert.  Some nights you might have to figure 5 cuts another night 8 cuts.  Just depends on who wants desert.  So we discuss silly things like this with our Nephew.

[Donna K & Quincy]

Yes!

[Lynn & Casey]

Yes, in half both ways and through the middle horizontily will make eight pieces with three cuts.

This one is from my daughter.

Two fathers and two sons went duck hunting. Each shot a duck but they shot only three in total. How?

[Donna K & Quincy]

Two of then shot the same duck or there were only 3 people, Grandfather, Father and Son, the Grandfather would also be a father and the father would be a son.

[Lynn & Casey]

Yes

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

One man has a son. And his son has a son.  That makes two fathers and two sons but a total of  3 guys and three ducks. 

[Lynn & Casey]

Yes
