[DiamondzAndGunz]

@ Skullbones: Wow,

Any ideas on this one yet?

You do not want to have it,
But when you do have it,
You do not want to lose it?
What is it?

A place in line, maybe?

 

[Bose]

A broken bone?

 

[DiamondzAndGunz]

@Bose: Nope. Lose a broken bone?
@Skullbones: Nope. I can probably think of several instances where I'd want a place in line .

Why doesn't anyone else post riddles?
Some challenging riddles, for once .

 

[Skullbones]

Well, I was thinking you wouldn't want to wait in line but if you had to you wouldn't want to lose your place.

Ok, here's one, I apologize if it was posted before, I did try very hard to see if it was:

A man walks into a bar, sits down and orders a water. The bartender pulls out a shotgun and points it at him. The man gets up says "Thank you." and leaves. Why did he do that?

 

[Bose]

The shotgun is a type of glass?

 

[Turner]

The man had hiccups, and the shotgun scared them away.

Okay, here's one.

What special relevance does 11259375 have? Anyone? Hint: Has to do with numbers. . .

 

[Perfection]

ABCDEF!

 

[Turner]

Doh! Too easy. I thought it would last longer than that.

Edit: Okay, here's one:

A tourist was driving in Europe and arrived in the city of Zurich, Switzerland. Upon locating a parking space next to a lake he placed enough money in the parking meter for one hour. Two hours later he returned to his car to find a parking ticket on his windscreen.

After a little thought he came up with an idea, and in thirty minutes he was able to drive out of the city without any need of paying his fine. How did he do this?

Edit: Here's another one:

There is a number less than 3000 that when divided by 2 leaves a remander of 1, when divided by 3 leaves a remander of 2, when divided by 4 leaves a remander of 3, When divided by 5 leaves a remander of 4, when divided by 6 leaves a remander of 5, and so on up to nine. What is that number?

He drove over a dateline or happened to be there when the clocks went back?

If you convert 11259375 from decimal to hex, it comes out as ABCDEF, not letters, but letters denoting the numbers '10 - 15.'

@Rout: Nope, sorry.

Because he has the hiccups. He orders water to try to get rid of them and the shot gun shocked him so he was cured.

This was back in 2000 when the automatic clocks changed by 2 hours instead of by 1 hour during the time change.

 

[Skullbones]

@Turner & WolfeTone, Right.

There is a number less than 3000 that when divided by 2 leaves a remander of 1, when divided by 3 leaves a remander of 2, when divided by 4 leaves a remander of 3, When divided by 5 leaves a remander of 4, when divided by 6 leaves a remander of 5, and so on up to nine. What is that number?
