    Excellent

    I see an army, far they travel and loot gold from beautiful halls. I see a single person seize their treasure and carry it away. How can this be?

    Cool - 4 different answers but the only one that is right is the one person who has already declared himself to be correct (i.e. dmc).

    I would answer the dictionary but then I would probably have to post a riddle of my own and I would probably have to resort to lifting one straight from the Hobbit. :D

    I am fairly decent at solving riddles but I am terrible at coming up with them.

    This is a fairly common and easy one but at least I didn't resort to getting one out of the Hobbit.

    What goes around the world but stays in a corner?

    I would have accepted simply "A stamp." but I suppose a little overkill never hurts. :lol:

    It's interesting that only riddles I can think of are ones I knew as a little kid. I can't think of any new ones.

    How about this all-time classic:

    What is the difference between an angry circus owner and an Italian barber?

    I'm guessing something to do with their attitudes towards hair.
