First off, the hot air ballon is correct. Wasn't filled with hydrogen, but the burner went out and he tried to light it. the gas had been on too long and it exploded. *wink* Nice job.

Second, I'm female. He he.

Last.. a new riddle:

Romeo and Juliet lay dead on the floor. Bits of broken glass are around them. No one was home at the time of the death. How did they die and what are they

Goldfish ? The cat knocked over the bowl

 

[bearlee]

[AriaSilverfyre]

Well done. Hmmm... I'm running out of riddles.... uh oh... better go find some more. Ok.... new one.

A farmer finds a man laying dead in his field. He sees a package nearby and immediately knows how the man died. How did he know?

 

[Pixie]

Okay, my guess is the package was the guys unopened parachute...

 

[AriaSilverfyre]

Yes. That is the correct answer. New riddle.

The rich want it.
The poor have it.
If you eat it, you'll die.

 

[HeavenScent]

Nothing

 

[InternationalFunboy]

I suck at these. Some just require a LARGE leap of logic.
Balloon? Gimme a break. To me a 'small' stick is still big enough to hit somebody with, like a broom stick.....not a matchstick.
I think the lightning strike is less probable, but more interesting for sure..
This riddle I got right off the bat...it rules! Probably a re-run, but enjoy!
