Cool...thanks Phalon...
A man wanted to enter an exclusive club but did not know the password that was required. He waited by the door and listened. A club member knocked on the door and the doorman said, "twelve." The member replied, "six " and was let in. A second member came to the door and the doorman said, "six." The member replied, "three" and was let in. The man thought he had heard enough and walked up to the door. The doorman said ,"ten" and the man replied, "five." But he was not let in.
What should have he said?

ohh ohhh raising my hand ohh I know
Three...
But I haven't got a riddle to replace it. Could you do the honors Scrappy? Or suggest a good riddle book for me to copy from for I am not one that remembers everything I hear or read. Thank goodness or my brain would have exploded already...

Of course I can the answer is the number of letters in the word the doorman gave. there are 6 letters in the word twelve 3 letters in the word six so the answer would be 3 letters in the word ten. Does that clear everything up...

You're driving a bus that is leaving on a trip from Pennsylvania and ending in New York. To start off with, there were 32 passengers on the bus. At the next bus stop, 11 people get off and 9 people get on. At the next bus stop, 2 people get off and 2 people get on. At the next bus stop, 12 people get on and 16 people get off. At the next bus stop, 5 people get on and 3 people get off.
Question: What color are the bus driver's eyes?

Well lets see... For about 30 years they were dark brown. As I entered my late 30's they turned somewhat hazel. So the answer is hazel. I am the bus driver! And by the way, I currently have 28 passengers

Baisically It just tells you how many of what number form the line before.
For instance..the next line after my answer would be....
31131211131221
As in..3 ones, 1 three, 1 two, 1 one, 1 three, 1 two, and 2 ones....got it?
