Title: Riddle for the Day: The Sun and the Wind, Past and Present
Post by: Shin on July 03, 2010, 05:09:29 PM
The wind blows at 9am, the sun rises at 9am. It's now 10am. What color was the wind and sun at 9?

The sun ROSE and the wind BLUE.

This one's a tricky one unless you use words, and say it to yourself from the perspective of now..

End of hints!

I didn't get it!

 :D

Wind - blue
Sun - rose

I love colors and love those two colors - along with green.

Good show! A pretty riddle no?

I hope with my bad memory I don't repeat riddles and jokes too much, I have a sense of deja vu about this one!  :D

No, you didn't do this one before. I'd really remember if a color riddle had been posted! The deja vu must be about some other aspect. :-\

Some of these are sticky but you got that one right off!  :cheers:

I feel like someone else posted a similar riddle but it's probably all in my head!

Here's a creepy one:

I'm sometimes white, although sometimes I'm black. I take you there but never bring you back. What am I?

A hearse!

Oh, not bad, not bad at all, that might even be a perfectly acceptable answer! But there's a better one that's close to it!  :D

So close!
