I've always been good at riddles. I guess my mind works that way well. :D

Yes, bookworm guessed the riddle. \:D/

NEW RIDDLE:
While exploring the wild highlands of Scotland, David was captured by goblins. Scary, the chief of the goblins told him he was allowed one final statement on which would hinge how he would die. If the statement he made was false, he would be boiled in water. If the statement were true, he would be fried in oil. David did not like either option, so he made a statement that forced the goblins to release him. What is the one statement he could make to save himself?

Ooh, I love ones like this! They make you think in such weird ways. :)

Hmm, I haven't ever heard one quite like that, so I'm not positive, but the best I can figure is
He said "You will boil me in water." because it that were true, he would have to be fried in oil?

EDIT:

Going back to your second riddle (I should have posted this then, sorry I wasn’t thinking), here’s a different version.
What is the beginning of eternity, the end of time and space, the beginning of every end, and the end of every place?
Same answer, just different wording. :)
I always liked that one, even though it’s easy, because it rhymes nicely.

Hmm, IDK. Here's a guess: the statement was "unknown"?

Methinks that Fax is no longer doing this. :(

Perhaps it should be locked... :anxious:
