heh, all 10 cracked, though the full of holes yet still holds water was supposed to be a sponge > watering-can.
And sorry for the confusion, twas supposed to be singular --> plural (princess --> princes)
Anyway, some more throw in :)
1. A man is found dead in his shed, which is locked (from the inside). Hanging by a rope dropped from the ceiling with a pool of water by his feet, there is nothing in the room but for these items. Explain.
2. Why can't you take a picture of a man with a wooden leg?
3. A man is found dead in the centre of a snow-covered field. There are no tracks leading to or from the body and he is completely alone. He is wearing a suit and has a pack on his back. Explain.
4. There is a perfectly circular pond with a diameter of 12 feet, dead in the centre of this pond is a frog. Thus the frog is c. 6 feet away from any of the edges. The pond is covered all the way across with lilypads strong enough to support the weight of the frog. This species of frog can jump a whole two feet at once. So, how what is the minimum number of jumps he has to take before he reaches the edge of the pond?
5. Romeo and Juliet are found dead on the floor in a bedroom. When they were discovered, there were pieces of glass and some water on the floor. The only furniture in the room is a shelf and a bed. The house in is a remote location, away from everything except for the nearby railway track. What caused the death of Romeo and Juliet?

Stood on a block of ice.
Just a mo while I think up a riddle.
Q. -
If a doctor gives you three pills and tells you to take one pill every half hour, how long will they last?

Two and a half hours? Maybe I over complicated it...

Nope.

OH!
They'll last as long as you keep coming back to the doctor... since you're taking one every half hour... ha!... or taking one pill from wherever.

That's not the answer I'm looking for. It's an actual set increment of time.

I'm not sure I like you any more, Quegster..... ;)
An hour and a half? Can you just email me the answer?

The answer was one hour. You would take the first pill immediately, the second a half hour later, and the third exactly one hour after taking the first. I didn't ask how long the effects would last, just the pills.
;)
Here's another:
Q. -
A man left home one morning. He turned right and ran straight ahead. Then he turned left. After awhile, he turned left again, running faster than ever. Then he turned left once more and decided to go home. In the distance he could see two masked men waiting for him. Who were they?

I'm going to guess they were doctors. I don't remember the riddle exactly but I think that's what they were.

I happen to believe that he was in a mental institution and was running around in circles. bit dark, but it would explain the 2 creepy guys with masks.

2. Why can't you take a picture of a man with a wooden leg?
I didn't see this one answered.
Because you can't take pictures with a wooden leg.
Keep on going though, I didn't mean to interrupt.
