Since its gone quiet here try this one

Nico is the 94th contestant in a radio station contest to win a free car, he has to go in a room with no clock no watch or anything that tells time and he has to walk out 30 minutes later. He has a lighter and a candle that will burn in exactly one hour,( supplied by the radio station) and he has nothing to measure the candle with. Then Nico walks out 30 minutes later to win the car. How did he do it?

Seeing as it is similar to one I posed

A snail is at the bottom of a well which is 30 feet deep.
It crawls up 3 feet each day, but at night it slips down 2 feet.

How long will it take the snail to crawl out of the well?

I would say 30 days, as it's averaging 1 foot a day, but I doubt it as the riddle will be more difficult than that

OOOOOOoooooohhh!! I got an idea.. Is it 0 days because you and your French pals caught it and ate it on the first day ?!

oops sorry buddy.

I think this one is new

What 5 letter word can be rearranged 3 times to get 3 different words each containing 1 more syllable? The word has no duplicates of letters
1)----- 1 syllable
2)----- 2 syllable
3)----- 3 syllable

No probs there have been a fair few on here so it is easily done.

hmmm will take me while that one but I would guess that it has to be a word with a fair few vowels in it so that narrows it down a bit lol

Was a tough one, but how about ....

Aides which can be rearranged into daies or saide for 1, aside for 2, and ideas for 3

A quickie ...

Mary has five male dogs and three female dogs. One day, sadly, one of the male dogs is run over and killed leaving the same number of male dogs as female dogs alive.

How come?

Ok, here's a linguistic one for you to try:

Take the word ERGRO.
Put three letters in front of it, and the same three letters behind it to form a common English word.

What are the 3 letters....?
