I hate riddles

Oh, I've got alot of riddles from my days playing on Betrayal at Krondor and from reading The Dark Tower

No.1
A precious gift this
Yet it has no end or beginning
And in the middle nothing

No.2
A barrel of rainwater weighs twenty pounds.
What must you add to make it weigh fifteen?

That should do for now

No2 = a hole

Yes

#1 eternal life?

#2 a hole

No.1 is not eternal life, but no.2 is a hole

#no 1 - love

no

🙁 aw, i knew number two.......but every1 else does 2!!

i got 2 which i dont know...sum1 work it out 4 me!!!

Three friends check into a motel for the night and the clerk tells them the bill is $30, payable in advance. So, they each pay the clerk $10 and go to their room. A few minutes later, the clerk realizes he has made an error and overcharged the trio by $5. He asks the bellhop to return $5 to the 3 friends who had just checked in. The bellhop sees this as an opportunity to make $2 as he reasons that the three friends would have a tough time dividing $5 evenly among them; so he decides to tell them that the clerk made a mistake of only $3, giving a dollar back to each of the friends. He pockets the leftover $2 and goes home for the day! Now, each of the three friends gets a dollar back, thus they each paid $9 for the room which is a total of $27 for the night. We know the bellhop pocketed $2 and adding that to the $27, you get $29, not $30 which was originally spent. Where did the other dollar go????

riddle me, riddle me that, who's afraid of the big black bat

10x3=$30
30-5=$25
$3 to the girls leaves $27, which the bellboy keeps $2 leaving $25 which is the price

man you know how to figure things out

I'll tell everyone the answer to no.1 tomorrow morning (UK)

oh...thanx spike...that was killing me 😊

It was a ring

Another one for you:

Silently he stalks me
Running as I run
Creeping as I creep
Dressed in black
He disappears at night
Only to return with the sun
