    Poison oak

    Sorry

    Cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind the stars and beneath the hills. Ends life and kills laughter.
    Darkness

    Yep

    Old Mother Twitchett had but one eye, and a long tail which she let fly; and every time she went through a gap, a bit of her tail she left in a trap.
    She's a needle

    Yep

    Brothers or sisters have I none, but that mans father is my fathers son. Who is that man?
    Your son.

    Again, sorry

    What's the difference between a penniless man and a feather bed?
    ?

    Two brothers we are, great burdens we bear, all day we are bitterly pressed; Yet this I will say - we are full all the day, and empty when we go to rest.
    ? A printing press?

    Nope

    ?

    Who is it that rows quickly with four oars but never comes out from under his own roof?
    A turtle

    Yes
    I'll be back around 7pm Mountain time. Should give everyone enough time to finish these out.

    I think you got the rest already Jon.

    "that mans father is my fathers son". You are your fathers son, so that man must be your son. That's the only logical explanation I can think of.

    Agreed. I think I just imploded a few brain cells...
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    Thats it, it must be. It make sense when you think of it in that way and repeat the riddle.

    Think of it as if you were talking to your reflection.
