How many billions of years old will the universe be when it finally ends?

Ohh this reminds me of a riddle: (or 2) :

May hundreds of years ago there was a man travelling to far away lands, on his travels he came across a phynx, to pass it he needed to answer but a simple riddle: What has 4 legs in the morn, 2 in the day, 3 in the eve.

Whats is the answer?

Many thousands of years ago another traveller came across the same phynx, who knew all and everything. To pass the traveller had to ask but a simple question. One the phynx could not answer.

What is the question? Andalus go away!

I know you know

Human - crawls as a baby, walks as an adult, uses a stick when elderly.

the first is used in soo many things, it is really old, from Greek mythology to my knowledge.
(ooh wikipedia has it)

for the second one I think the question is 'what don't you know/know of?' or something along those lines, because to answer would mean you do know it hence the answer you give would be wrong.

Not even close stormcloud, sorry.

Ok the first one to answer right gets a cookie ^^

stormcloud · « **Reply #11 on:** February 03, 2009, 04:05:18 PM »

is it 'why is your name spelt wrong?'

sphynx is a breed of cat, the mythological creature is the sphinx

CN2 · « **Reply #12 on:** February 03, 2009, 09:36:32 PM »

Nope, think simple. I mean 6 year old simple

And sorry about the spelling mistake, Its supposed to be the one you said.

If I do know, I can't remember. :blink:

Incidentally, this is a Greek sphinx. It is a female winged mythological creature and asks a riddle of passers-by.

This is an Egyptian sphinx. It is a genderless statue that is the guardian of the pyramids and doesn't care how many legs you have.

Remember that now.
