First five true, last five false.

[Evergod41]

Now, for my riddle: I horseman rode into town on Friday, and stayed for three nights. He left again on Friday. How is this possible?

[Vector]

Spoiler: Know the riddle already (click to show/hide)

Horse's name is Friday

[Heron TSG]

Correct!

[Vector]

Bah, I'd... I'd post some, but I actually can't remember any riddles.  Hmmm.

[Neyvn]

What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

[Heron TSG]

What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

Ooh, I heard this one just today. A river.

Two fighter jets take off at the same exact moment. They are flying across the Pacific. One leaves Seattle and is flying to Tokyo at 480 miles per hour. The other leaves Tokyo and is flying to Seattle at only 430 miles per hour ( because of a strong head wind ). Which one will be closer to Prague when they meet?

[Vector]

Neither--when they meet, they'll be at the same place.
