In this case it is not sufficient to give a one word answer.
The human body has 9 orifices....Quote:
What has ten holes. When one is open the other nine are closed. When one is closed the other nine are open?
Eyes - 2
Ears - 2
Nose - 2
Mouth - 1
Anus - 1
Genitals - 1
Maybe they're all open if there isn't a dirty great hole open in your chest, and they're closed if there is?
Lamsey, you're on the right track but think harder.
I was more thinking about the cruxifiction.
Holes opened then "closed"/filled by the nails.
As each one went in, the ninth (the mouth) opened in pain.
There's a few things wrong with that, but that's my best answer ;)
Other than that - I am absolutely f***ing clueless :(
Illuminati, nice guess but wrong.
Two words.
Umbilical cord.
:D
It's a baby.
Correct Lamsey. Well done!!!Quote:

The riddle came from the old testiment and it was one of the things Solomon used to woo the Queen of Sheba. I think it's used in some Muslim teachings too. Well, there ya go now.
Incidentally, it only works if it's a male baby. You'll find on closer investigation that females have another hole.
Yep, the archaic riddle had "man" as the solution.Quote:

In the world of riddles, a picture, symbol, or construction of words to represent a phrase, sentence or saying..is a rebus. :P
K ?

Ok, when I first looked at it, I thought "Allegiance", "Loyalty".... but I'd never heard of "Fealty" before.
So I looked up the word in the dictionary and it is somewhat synonymous to the other to words.
So now we have three words which all mean more or less "Loyalty" split by the / symbol... so I'm gonna guess Divided Loyalties
Now my head really hurts! :(

On the contrary........anyway, here's a toughie;
You're trapped inside a locked 1976 AMC Pacer, and the only tool available to you is a 4" pocketknife. How do you get out ?
Is it that hard to get out of the inside of a locked car? :blink:
