The person who answers the most of these will win the may letter, the person who answers the second most will win the april letter. Obviously if you answer all of them first then you will get it. Feel free to PM me that answers if you ddon't feel comfortable giving them away.
1. What is broken every time it's spoken?
2. Food can help me survive, but water will kill me. What am I?
3. You are walking through a field, and you find something to eat. It doesn't have bones, and it doesn't have meat. You pick it up and put it into your pocket. You take it home and put it on a shelf, but 3 day's later it walks away. What is it?
4. A man was outside taking a walk when it began to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this happen?
5 Thirty White Horses on a red hill
First they champ
Then they stamp
Then they stand still
6. Voiceless it cries
Wingless it mutters
Toothless bites
Mouthless Mutters
7. What has roots as nobody sees,
Taller than trees
Up up it goes
And yet never grows
8. As I went to St. Ives, I met a man with seven wives; Each wife had seven sacks, Each sack had seven cats, Each cat had seven kits, Kits, cats, sacks, and wives. How many were going to St. Ives?
9. A cloud was my mother,
the wind is my father,
my son is the cool stream,
and my daughter is the fruit of the land.
A rainbow is my bed,
the earth my final resting place,
and I'm the torment of man.
10. With thieves I consort,
With the vilest, in short,
I'm quite at ease in depravity;
Yet all divines use me,
And savants can't lose me,
For I am the centre of gravity.
11. Why is a raven like a writing desk
12. What is the broadest water and the least jeapardy to pass over?
13. Once I was water, full of scaly fish;
But, by a new decision, Fate has changed
My nature: having suffered fiery pangs,
I now gleam white, like ashes or bright snow.
14. What is greater than God,
More evil than the devil,
The poor have it,
The rich need it,
And if you eat it, you'll die?

Why is a raven like a writing desk
Because it can produce a few notes, 'though they are very flat, and is never put with the wrong end in front.
What is the broadest water and the least jeapardy to pass over?
The dew
Once I was water, full of scaly fish;
But, by a new decision, Fate has changed
My nature: having suffered fiery pangs,
I now gleam white, like ashes or bright snow.
Salt
What is greater than God,
More evil than the devil,
The poor have it,
The rich need it,
And if you eat it, you'll die?
Nothing
