Are You Ready?

Are you guys ready? I mean, are you all seriously ready? Come on, don't dilly dally now, get ready quick. I know you're all waiting for this, right? I can see you all gleefully salivating already ... LOL! Ok, ok, I won't keep you in suspense anymore.

Here it is, my latest riddle for you to solve ... hahaha ... What did you think it was? I'm too much of a cheapskate to give you guys anything of real value like a heart pendant jewelry you know. It's not a riddle really, it's more of a ... urrrmmm, brainteaser for want of a better word.

And I'd advise you guys to try and solve it fast seeing as how that genius Nessa is away on holiday somewhere. This gives you all the chance to try and solve it before she does ... LOL! As usual, I already know the answer. Yes Anny, I cheated as usual. After all I'm the most dumbest of the lot and the only I'm going to solve it is by cheating ... LOL! And that doesn't mean you can cheat ok, Anny? ... hehehe ...

Ok, so I'll leave you with it for now. Take your time and figure this one out. It's real easy and you guys should be able to get it in no time. Just make you sure you try and answer before Nessa gets back :

Pirate Pete had been captured by a Spanish general and sentenced to death by his 50-man firing squad.

Pete cringed, as he knew their reputation for being the worst firing squad in the Spanish military. They were such bad shots that they would often all miss their targets and simply maim their victims, leaving them to bleed to death, as the general's tradition was to only allow one shot per man to save on ammunition. The thought of a slow painful death made Pete beg for mercy.


"Very well, I have some compassion. You may choose where the men stand when they shoot you and I will add 50 extra men to the squad to ensure someone will at least hit you. Perhaps if they stand closer they will kill you quicker, if you're lucky," snickered the general.

"Oh, and just so you don't get any funny ideas, they can't stand more than 20 ft away, they must be facing you, and you must remain tied to the post in the middle of the yard. And to show I'm not totally heartless, if you aren't dead by sundown I'll release you
so you can die peacefully outside the compound. I must go now but will return tomorrow and see to it that you are buried in a nice spot, though with 100 men, I doubt there will be much left of you to bury."

After giving his instructions the general left. Upon his return the next day, he found that Pete had been set free alive and well. "How could this be?" demanded the general. "It was where Pete had us stand," explained the captain of the squad.


Where did Pete tell them to stand?

Give Us A Break Already ...

Remember that post where I said I wanted to post my last riddle? Well, I lied! LOL! Since you guys all loved trying to solve that riddle which ended up with Emila, Aki and yours truly having serial killer like tendencies, I thought I'd post another riddle ... hahaha ...

Come on, don't make that face already. I know deep down inside you guys secretly crave for these riddles don't you? Come on, don't be shy, admit it already, I can see you all salivating already ... hehehe ...

But the challenge is trying to find a riddle that will stump you guys. You're all such geniuses that you make my riddles look like child's play. And it gets worse that I have to cheat to get the answers (just like Anny ... hahaha ...).

So, after spending hours digging through my riddle archive (what? you don't believe I have riddle archive?) I managed to come up with this one. It took me a while to figure out the answer and even then I got it wrong and had to take a peek at the answer (ok, ok, I cheated ... LOL!) Let's see how you guys do. And remember, no cheating or you'll be feeling a blast from my ray gun!

During a visit to a mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criteria is that defines if a patient should be institutionalized.


"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub. Then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."


Okay, here's your test:

1. Would you use the spoon?

2. Would you use the teacup?

3. Would you use the bucket?


"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket, as it is larger than the spoon."


What was the director's response?

The Reveal

I know I've been keeping everybody in suspense by not revealing the answer to the riddle in my previous post but I've been busy. Yes, just in case you're all wondering, this poor spaceman has a regular 9-5 job. Plundering the galaxy and slave trading of Zorkian bugs doesn't pay very well these days you know. and besides, have you smelled a Zorkian bug recently? Ugghhhh!

Ok, in my previous post I had a riddle about what was the motif of this girl for killing her sister. Just in case any of you don't know what I'm talking about, go read the previous post first so you won't be in the dark.

Well, most of you got the answer wrong which really is a good thing. Trust me on this one :D Now, only two people got the answer correct and that is Emila and Aki. They both said that the reason the girl killed her sister hoping that the guy would appear at the sister's funeral so she could see him again.

Well, bravo to the two of you but don't start celebrating just yet cos if you actually answered this correctly, yes Emila and Aki, that's you, then you guys think like a psychopath. This was a test used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer. Many arrested serial killers have taken this test and answered it correctly.

Now, with that in mind, remind me to have my trusty old ray gun handy the next time I visit your blogs ... hahaha! As for the rest of you, aren't you guys glad you couldn't answer this riddle correctly :D But then, I have a little confession to make. I actually had the same answer as Emila and Aki the first time I tried this riddle which makes me just as crazy as the two of them ... muahahaha!

And with that I present Emila, Aki and urmmm also myself with this prize ... LOL!

Hurry, Hurry, Read All About it ...

Hey folks, gather round. The crazy space is about to unleash another installment of his infamous riddles ... muahahaha ... I know there are at least two riddle fanatics out there just dying to answer this ... hahaha ... Anny, try not to cheat by Googling (LOL!) and Nessa, let's see if you are still can claim the genius title ... hehehe ... Here goes:

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

Easy right? Well, just so you know, I cheated and got the answer already, but that's to be expected of a sinister, quirky and annoying spaceman like me ... LOL!

What Am I?

Ok people, it's riddle time again :D I'm sure you all enjoy riddles so I'm going to give you one. Well, actually I'm in need of an interim post and I couldn't think of anything good and interesting to post so here goes. First one to answer this will get my Genius Of The Year award ... LOL!

I am the center of gravity
hold a capital situation in Vienna,
and as I am foremast in every victory,
am allowed by all to be invaluable.

Though I am invisible,
I am clearly seen in the midst of a river.
I could name three who are in love with me
and have three associates in vice.

It is vain that you seek me, 
for I have long been in heaven,
yet even now lie embalmed in the grave.

What am I?


So, any of you geniuses out there know the answer? I know for a fact I'm no genius cos I had to peek at the answer to figure this one out ... LOL!
