A man walks into a tv station and buys 30 seconds of commercial time, he then hands the tape he wants played to the clerk(or whoever works there) He is then told that at the time he requested his advertisement to be played someone has already purchased that air time. So he slips the guy an extra $200 and the clerk accepts it. Later that day at precisely the time he ordered his advertisement is played. And all it is is just static. Yet the man is happy. Why is this so?

i'll try morphis
he gave him 200$ in pennys?

thanks for the effort but no.

I will change the riddle to make it a lot easier, and I will make it with some recognizable faces.


George W. Bush walks into a tv station and buys 30 seconds of commercial time, he then hands the tape he wants played to the clerk(or whoever works there) He is then told that at the time he requested his advertisement to be played someone has already purchased that air time.

You are in the homestretch my friend, now figure out who his enemy was and what was on the airtime before and you have why he was happy.

It was for the presidential election, and he took the other guys air time with static, so the other guy didnt get his message across..?

I think he's looking for a specific person and reason

 

[mynameisearlandilikenuts]

Okay...

Imagine your in a room with steel all around you, no door, no windows, nothing but a lightbulb and your clothes. How do you get out?

Stop imagining?

Ok, Mine.

My first is in water and also in tea. My second is in fish but not in the sea. My third is in mountains but not underground. My last is in strike but never in pound.

My whole crushes mountains, rivers, even civilizations. And all that live, fear my arrival.

What am I?

is it time?

 

[MatthewGor123]

is it time?

It would definitely make sense;
The first letter (T) is in water and tea. [from here, you can deduce that it's T, E, or A]
The second (I) is in fish, but not in sea. [F, I, S, H]
The third (M) is in mountains, but not underground [M, T, A, I, S]
The fourth (E) is in strike, but not pound. [S, T, R, I, K, E]

Time is the only word from these letters in this order that I can see.

And the last part was basically a giveaway.

I don't have a riddle

 

[Benwise]

Yes its time, someone post one plawks.

 

[Morphis]

I'll post one
I have no flash or substance, and I am not to be feared. But if someone steals me from you, you will be deflated. If you are OK, you have already stolen me.
What am I?

[Ardy]

I think it is.

You didn't mention anything about walls, so I'm assuming you can just walk around the steel.

A keyboard. You can't really enter a keyboard though, but it does have an enter key

Here's a very common puzzle, I won't spice it up with any needless variations.

You are standing at point A. You need to get to point B. Separating you from B are two paths - one that will lead you on a road to nowhere, the other that will actually lead you to point B. On each of these paths, there is a man blocking the road. You know that one of them ALWAYS tells the truth while the other ALWAYS lies, but you don't know which path has which man on it. However, you have to pick a path to get to point B. What is the one and only question you can ask to get to point B?

[Don't say something dumb like "what language do you speak?" or "punch the guy in the face, see if the path leads to B, if it doesn't walk back and knock the other dude out and walk that way." Seriously, think about it.
