Here's my riddle:

An archeologist has found something, it has a head and a tail, but its not scary, what is it?

[pseudoswede]

I'm stuck between two answers...

* A supermodel
* A coin

 


What can go up a chimney down, but not down a chimney up?

[Pavel]

Dam you knew that didn't you? Yes, it is a coin.

Want's the answer you yours? Santa? Wait, yours is confusing.

[herrgoda]

An umbrella...

What has 4 wheels and flies?

[Bobandirus]

No idea about pseudoswede's, but here are 2 of mine:

Man who made it sold it,
Man who bought it didnt want it,
Man who got it didnt know he had it,
What am I?

AND

The poor have it,
The rich want it,
Eat it and die.
What am I?

[herrgoda]

Need more time to think about the first one, but the solution to the second one might be "nothing"

[blumage]

Man who made it sold it,
Man who bought it didnt want it,
Man who got it didnt know he had it,
What am I?

It's a coffin.

You are correct!

Here's another one:
There are 20 people in an empty, square room. Each person has full sight of the entire room and everyone in it. If you are not allowed to move in any way (other than your eyes). Where can you place an apple so that all but one person can see it?

[herrgoda]

On that person's head?

[Blue Sky Mine]

You could make him stand on it

And another one:

With no wings I fly.
With no eyes I see.
With no arms I climb.
More frightening than any beast.
Stronger than any foe.
Cunning, ruthless, tall.
In the end I rule all.
What am I?
