Name an eight letter word that has kst in the middle, in the beginning, and at the end.
I get it, inkstand. I think I heard something like that before.

A "Wise King" devised a contest to see who would receive the Princess hand in marriage.
The Princess was put in a 50x50 foot carpeted room. Each of her four suitors were put in one corner of the room with a small box to stand on. The first one to touch the Princess hand would be the winner and become the new King.
The rules of the test were that the contestants could not walk over the carpet, cross the plane of the carpet, or hang from anything; nor could they use anything but their body and wits (i.e. no magic or telepathy, nor any items such as ladders, block and tackles etc).
One suitor figured out a way and married the Princess and became the new King. How did he figure it out?
The princess could just walk over to who she wanted to marry but that wouldn't work if she had to stay in the middle of the room... confused

I'm not really more than holes tied to more holes; I'm strong as good steel, though not as stiff as a pole. What am I?
fishing rod

1. you're actually right... it never said she had to stay put, so the prince asked here to move touvh 'his' hand.
2. nope, it's not a fishing rod...

Hmm..not a lot of things have holes in them unless they're broken but I doubt it's the case. *looks around the basement* a long line of sponges, a chain of doughnuts, a tire, lampshades stacked on top of eachother.. confused sweatdrop

I hope no one's posted this yet, but here it is.

The richest men don't have it
But the poorest men do
It means death for those who eat or drink it
It is better than God
It is more evil than the devil
What is it?

Quote:
A king decided to let a prisoner try to escape the prison with his life. The king placed 2 marbles in a jar that was glued to a table. One of the marbles was supposed to be black, and one was supposed to be blue.

If the prisoner could pick the blue marble, he would escape the prison with his life. If he picked the black marble, he would be executed. However, the king was very mean, and he wickedly placed 2 black marbles in the jars and no blue marbles. The prisoner witnessed the king only putting 2 black marbles in the jars.

If the jar was not see-through and the jar was glued to the table and that the prisoner was mute so he could not say anything, how did he escape with his life?

I know the answer, but it's cheap, so I'm not going to tell you.

Is it possible he just escaped, forgetting the marble? The king never said he HAD to pick the marble.
