heres a clue
use the main words starting letters

You really have to quote his clue to understand the significance of the dots (Which are the bold text at size 1):

heres a clue
use the main words starting letters

Therefore, its AHATAEWA, using only the starting letters of the main words. Therefore you are A HAT (ignoring the extra letters at the end).

Second riddle:

no use your eyes....very carefully the smallest dot could bring forth the answer

You have to quote or highlight his riddle to understand the clue, since it shows this (the dot was shrunk to size 1):

They were sneaky

Right, my turn. I'll go for an easy one after those two tricksters:

A man lives exactly halfway between two bus stops.
To catch the bus to work on a morning, he goes to the first bus stop, yet when he returns home he gets off at the second.
Why?

Dane Kiet · « **Reply #91 on:** February 05, 2008, 06:49:25 PM »

Two different buses?

Slornie · « **Reply #92 on:** February 05, 2008, 07:14:48 PM »

Well, chances are it would be a different bus. But you mean bus route, right?

Either way, thats not the answer

EDIT: I'll give you a clue, its something to do with before and after getting on/off the bus.

Dane Kiet · « **Reply #93 on:** February 05, 2008, 08:52:16 PM »

The sad thing is, I think I've heard of this riddle before

I just don't remember it.... Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

Meyer · « **Reply #94 on:** February 05, 2008, 11:46:41 PM »

the bus arrives later to the second stop. it first goes past the first and on to second.

Slornie · « **Reply #95 on:** February 06, 2008, 06:18:17 AM »

Nope. And if that had been the case, he would get on at the second, and off at the first.

Dane Kiet · « **Reply #96 on:** February 06, 2008, 10:56:37 AM »

he lives on a hill! that way, he walks down hill both ways!

Slornie · « **Reply #97 on:** February 06, 2008, 11:04:10 AM »

Yep, the first stop is at the bottom of the hill, which he walks down to on a morning, then after work he gets of at the second stop (at the top of the hill) and walks down to his home.

Your turn Dane Kiet.

Let's see who knows this one.
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.
This should be easy.....
