Alright I'll start off.
Mountains will crumble and temples will fall, and no man can survive its endless call. What is it?

Oh geez, I'd say Life but thats probably wrong. So, Nature?
Ok, heres a classic.
You're in a room with three switches. Each one is connected to a lightbulb in the next room. You cannot see into the other room, cannot get help from anyone else, and are only allowed in the lightbulb room once. How do you find out which light goes to which switch?

Slash ~ Is it an avalanche?
54topdawg54 ~ Follow the cables perhaps?
Or snap one of the wires, switch on one of them, go into the other room and see which one has switched on, then you know the remaining one connects to the other one?

Good thought, but neither are correct. Lets say that the wires are in the walls/floor.

Good thought, but nope; You cant see into the other room.
Hint: Think about what happens to a lightbulb when you turn it on.
Uhm.. Truth? Probably not.

Nope. Another obvious hint: Tick tock
You turn on one of the switches and it will light up in a spot, then you have to assume that its on a different one I suppose.

Oooooh, If there is a lightbumb on, won't it get warmer over time, and the heat will eventually travel through the air.
Is it something to do with that anyways?
P.s. sorry I've been away for a few days, I've been ridiculously busy this week, I'm busy every night this week!

Three lightbulbs... Hm. Heat and Time is a big hint.
I guess you only need to switch two of them on. You turn one off and leave the other on. When you walk into room you have one that is ON, one that is WARM and the third should still be COLD.
Am I right?

Exactly!
You could also turn one on, then a while later turn on another. The one thats been on the longest should be the hottest, the one that was turned on second should be warm, and the third which isnt on should be cold.

yays!
Okay, now for mine...
There is a man that walks to and from his apartments every day. His apartment is on the twelfth floor of the building. Naturally, he always uses the elevator when he can, to go to and from his apartment to the first floor and vice versa.
On a normal day the man uses the elevator to go down all the way to the first floor. When he comes back and takes the elevator back up to his apartment, he only goes to the fifth floor, and takes the stairs the rest of the way up.
However, on a rainy day the man takes the elevator all the way up to the twelfth floor where his apartment is. Why?

Cause he is either too old or too short to reach the button. But on that rainy day, possibly the elevators were flooded and he had to take the elevator up rather than swim eek
