Late afternoons I often bathe.
I'll soak in water piping hot.
My essence goes through my see through clothes.
Used up am I; I've gone to pot.
What am I?

A chicken that is being cooked and also made into broth, or some other kind of animal.

It has no top or bottom but it can hold flesh, bones and blood all at the same time.
What is it?

I really doubt it, but this could be a dictionary. Although that's usually said as "Where does Wednesday come after Thursday?" or "Where does yesterday come after tomorrow?"

@ Gerrard: Eh. Nah. Methinks that a dictionary can have a top and/or bottom. :D

Okay, that's what I figured. This time I'll guess a stew. And if I'm wrong again I'll leave the riddle for someone else.
 
@ Gerrard: Nope. Kinda wierd riddle, since the thing doesn't exactly hold those things, but it still kinda does.. in a way. :lol:

How bout a tea-bag?

If the ring was wrong, how about a bracelet?

Here's one, oldie but a goodie: How many inch long matches does it take to complete a 5 inch long match bridge?

The universe and the world both fulfill these criteria

Chuck, a bestselling author of romantic fiction, had suspected for some time that his wife Eva was unfaithful, though he had no proof. One afternoon, while Chuck was working on his latest bodice-ripper, Eva mentioned that she intended to go to the movies and would be out for a few hours. As Eva went to the door, Chuck looked at her pensively, then resumed his work. Three hours later, Eva returned, took her coat off and asked Chuck weather he wanted some coffee. When she returned from the kitchen, Chuck asked her to sit down as he wanted to talk to her.
"Eva," he said, "I want a divorce."
Can you figure out how he knew?



I didn't see an answer to this one yet, which was started on page 1 of this thread.

Assuming it wasn't, could the answer be that once she took off the coat Chuck noticed she had a hicke? (I have no idea on how to spell that word)
 
@ Bose: Tea bag is acceptable as well.
As for the other one, yes, a ring is correct. But you said it was the answer for 3, although it was 4. Ehh, :goodjob: nonetheless.

@ Rout: Don't get smart :nono:.

@ Yaniv: Nope.

Could it be because her clothes were not wrinkled as they would be if she was sitting at a movie for a couple hours?
 
It was because she had a run in the left leg of her stocking, and when she came home it was on the right leg (i think...)

@ Gerrard, nope, but if ur explaination of how you got 38 is good enough i'll send you $5...
