Oh! Moses got banned. :( Guess he struck the rock. I'd ask why he got banned but last time I asked about a ban Lynx waived me off. That's when I started talking about how much I appreciate the mods and that I used to be one at other forums. So, what makes you think an umbrella can't go down a chimney? :unsure: Did you ever go up a chimney with an umbrella but couldn't bring it back down with you?

Well I do have some Poppins-esque tendencies, so chimneys and umbrellas are my strong suit! 😜

The answer lies in the subleties; if you re-read the initial premise you see that the object in question can go up a chimney DOWN, but not down a chimney UP. Umbrellas are very slender when "downç (closed), but when you put them "up" (aviation-ready, if you are a fellow Poppinite 😉), they then become very wide and would not easily fit down your standard chimney opening.

Hope that cleared up some confusion for ya 😊.

Oh, I missed that part of it! Well, in that case you solved the riddle! And I just checked officially, yep, you solved the riddle!! Which means... You're up to make the next riddle/puzzle question!! :love::cool:

See how that works? :p

Haha I think I might have heard the chimney riddle as a kid and remembered the answer. OK so I'm not great at riddles but here goes:

Speed us up, we'll help your world go faster.

But slow us down, and so will you.

With my friends, I can move a mountain.

But all alone I won't be counted.

Two words. What am I?

You are Mohammad (ibn) Abdullah! Remember the story about when the mountain would not come to Mohammed, so Mohammed's followers went out and each filled their buckets with soil from that very mountain that would not come, and in the morning, Mohammad awakened to find that the mountain had come to him?

Also, all the threats from Muslim territories about slowing down the West (by increasing oil costs) if we bomb them. And if we don't bomb them, but instead buy their oil, well, we go a lot faster because our factories have something to power them (I don't really buy all the green energy hype). And probably the main complaint is that often, there are so many of them, but alone, one might barely notice (probably one would still notice the turban and long beard if he went out, but if he stayed home, probably no one would notice).

Hi Charles! Ummmm...... no that's not what I was thinking but sounds like a decent guess based on your reasoning!

Would you like a hint? 🤓

Wow, that's difficult. :coffee::coffee::coffee:
I was thinking "river stream", but not quite enough. Mathematical technology? Plate tectonics? :geek:

A pet shop owner had a parrot with a sign on its cage that said "Parrot repeats everything it hears". Davey bought the parrot and for two weeks he spoke to it and it didn't say a word. He returned the parrot but the shopkeeper said he never lied about the parrot. How can this be?

A father takes his son to a ballgame. On the way home, they are in an accident. Both are rushed to the hospital where they are prepped for surgery. The surgeon who is to operate on the son recuses themself from surgery saying...I can't operate on the boy because he is my son.

How is this possible?
