Oh! who doesn't love a good riddle,one that would make the wheels of your mind spin out of control, let your imagination run wild and then get reined in by your intelligence and have those grey cells tested once in a while.
Riddles, throughout history have played a much bigger role than being just a game of wits. People have had their lives taken by the mythological Sphinx when her riddles went unanswered.
