(B) The third times 2 plus the second equals the fifth;
(C)The second times 2 equals the first;

Yes, I did. Took me a couple of minutes.

Looking at your riddle,the lowest number should be the second number. I guessed a 1 would be there, it gave me a starting point to work out all the other numbers using your clues.

Which triangle has a bigger area: 1. A triangle with sides measuring 300, 400, and 500. 2. A triangle with sides measuring 300, 400, and 700.

That's correct. 2nd triangle doesn't exist was the full answer.

Right, I can go off out now. Whoever posts a riddle first out of you two wins. :)

I challenge anyone to post a meaningful sentence in the English language that used the work "and" 5 times in a row without any other words between each instance.

eg

and and and and and

i've seen a similiar one that uses the word "had"...something like 8 times in a row and makes sense....

but i'll pass on the "and" one...

bloody hell soul kiss I just googled yours (far too hard for me as it involves grammar) and the answer still took a few times of reading out loud before I acutaly made any sense out of it.

He cant - you state there is no way out.

Unless the description is missing something - the obvious one would be that if there was no door, then walk out through the empty doorway.

But as you state no way out then he cant.

You haven't stated how high the walls are and there's no mention of a ceiling. So there's no ceiling, the walls are low and the stick is a pogo stick, then he could bounce over the walls to get out.

I haven't googled (yet) to see if that's the right answer.
