ÔÇ£Shoot the dictator and prevent the war? But the dictator is merely the tip of the whole festering boil of social pus from which dictators emerge; shoot him and there'll be another one along in a minute. Shoot him too? Why not shoot everyone and invade Poland?ÔÇØ

Re: Riddles
Twin towers flank a host of fourteen
     with all the court in between.
Born of chariots, their reach is far.
     To friend, to foe, to all there are.
Beside them the mounted dogs of war trod,
     followed by those that speak the words of god.
All bow to the crown and guard his grace,
     moving when threatened to take his place.
To a bloodless war lowly footmen are chanced,
     but deadliest of all is his lady's advance.
Dark ranks match them, man for man,
     a pale knight leads, the charge began.

Re: Riddles
All right, here it is.
A man goes to town on Friday, stays 3 days, and leaves on Friday. How is this possible?
It's not too hard.

His horse's name is Friday.
Hmm...
Three little letters.
A paradox to some.
The worse that it is
The better it becomes.

Agh, I had it, but didn't see it as a paradox.

Re: Riddles
It means that you gave the wrong answer in any case. The correct answer gets worse as it gets better and gets better as it gets worse.

Re: Riddles
I'm wrong... but I would guess "age" because you get wiser with age (ideally, anyway!) and yet your body slowly gets worse.

Re: Riddles
I could tell you that I think the answer is humorous. Also, they're small letters. None of them reaches above the halfway point of the line.
