Re: The Riddle Thread
I have an answer for this, though it surely isn't correct, and it damn well isn't appropriate.

And the moment that some of you have been waiting for...
The answer is me.Brothers or sisters have I none, but that mans father is my fathers son. Who is that man?
Re: The Riddle Thread
Sorry DrumThumper, you got the answer to your own riddle wrong.

There are about a dozen of these and you either put in an extra word or left one out...
Brothers and sisters have I none,
but this man's son is my son.
I am "This Man".
Brothers and sisters have I none,
but this man's father's son is my father's son.
I am "This Man".
Brothers and sisters have I none,
but this man is my son.
"This Man" is my son.

but this man's father is my son.
"This Man" is my grandson.

Write it out on paper, etc, and you'll see your mistake.
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, con a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyse a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

Re: The Riddle Thread
Here's the answer from my source:
I am my fathers son, so that mans father.
Which leads me to believe that the answer is me. Remember, it is from the riddler's point of view.
Sorry for the confusion.
Although...your answer seems to fit as well.
And sorta off topic; RE: the Adult Swim commercial. I see it too. And if it's what I think it is...then kudos to the creators of that ad lol. Looks like a profile shot of a woman.
