A riddle for you

[mhzpower]

Name a bell that doesn't ring but makes the angels sing.

Any guesses.

Albert Bell?
Packard-Bell? (no, wait you said "sing", not "run in holy terror")
Bell bottoms?
The Liberty Bell?
Musical door Bell?
A Bell lined w/felt?
A Bell alone in the middle of the woods?
The mysterious "no ringy, but agnel singy" Bell?

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down

 

[thraashman]

monto, do you really think you'll get away with trying a riddle from The Hobbit here and have it not get answered immediately.

Time is the answer

 

[monto]

just poking fun at mhz's puzzle, nothing more

Time.

EDIT: Oops, already answered.

Here is one:

I soar without wings, I see without eyes.
I've traveled the universe to and fro.
I've conquered the world, yet I've never been anywhere but home.
Who am I?

 

[Radiohead]

That would be your imagination...

Guess it's my turn:
I am the ruler of shovels
I have a double
I am as thin as a knife
I have a wife
What am I?

 

[datalink7]

King of Spades!

What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

K, take a crack at this datalink

Here on Earth it's almost always true, that tomorrow will follow today.
Yet there is a place where yesterday always follows today.
Where is this place?

 

[thraashman]

dictionary

Radiohead:

Cheater! YOu went to a different site!

Answer is the dictonary

Riddle me this:

What falls but never breaks?
What breaks but never falls?

Edit:thraashman beat me to the dictonary answer.

 

[thraashman]

I wanna say rain, but I doubt that's what you're looking for.
Also I beat you on the dictionary answer

 

[datalink7]

<< I wanna say rain, but I doubt that's what you're looking for.

Nope, thats not the answer.

And I have to concede on the dictonary one. I'll put it in my post.

 

[PrinceofWands]

Yeah, rain and water/waves are the ones that came to my mind first...except for the second line day/dawn is a better answer.

Got it! The answer is :

Night and Day.

 

[datalink7]

Lets try a really old one:

Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them.
There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word ...

 

[thraashman]

princeofwands that sounds good, nightfall/daybreak, didn't think of that one.

 

[Radiohead]

Ahh, too late!

Was gonna say:
Night falls but never breaks and day breaks but never falls.

Took too long to search the page

And language is the answer... I think

 

[thraashman]

this is my favorite because so many people tell it wrong.

language is the answer.

damn radiohead musta been editing as I was posting. his edit beat my post too.

 

[datalink7]

<< this is my favorite because so many people tell it wrong.

Yup, both radio head and you got it right. Did I tell it correct? That is the only way I know it.

 

[thraashman]

yeah you told it right. most people don't tell it as a riddle and ask what's the 3rd word in english that ends in -gry

 

[datalink7]

Interesting. Take a look at this site. Maybe that GRY riddle doesn't work?
