Subject: RE: Does anybody know good riddles?
My maternal Grandmother used to tell this one
Riddle me, riddle me roat te tote. I saw a man in a red coat, a stick in his hand, a stone in his throt. Riddle me, riddle me roat te tote.
and one from the Shakespearian era (that's easy for you to say!)
"What walketh upon four legs at morning, on two in the afternoon, and three of the night?" Bill Shake schollars will correct me upon my 17thC West Country Mumerset.
How do you keep an idiot in suspense.
