I still have two unsolved riddles on the table if you want to take a shot...
1) A politician wrote a touching, and very long speech. How did this speech help keep him in office even prior to giving it?
2) Julius and Aromea are found lying dead on the floor without a scratch. There is also a broken bowl lying between them. What was the cause of death?

1). He's a dictator.
2). The floor gave way, they both died in the fall, and the bowl broke as well?
Taking another shot:
They both had a peanut allergy(or some kind of food allergy in this case im using peanuts) The bowl was filled with cookies which contained peanut oil, they ate alll the cookies with the bowl in hands and as they died they dropped the bowl.
Julius and Aromea were beaten with the bowl, the floor is what was without a scratch.
Julius and Aromea are found lying dead on the floor without a scratch. There is also a broken bowl lying between them. What was the cause of death?
Thats the best i could come up with
Luke is correct! The fishbowl fell and the cause of death was suffocation.
But no for #1.

Alright Zephik, I admit it. This damned thing has been eating away at me all day. I have run through this thing so many time in my head and cannot find any variable that is true for all of those. Most riddles lead you away from the answer one way or another and you overlook a simple solution, but I'm not so sure about this one Here is what I think:I turn polar bears white
and I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee
and girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid
and normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown
and make your champagne bubble.
If you squeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?
I asked you if "can you guess the riddle?" was part of it or your words and you sounded unsure, that means they are not your words and they are part of the riddle. The fact that it is worded so strangely (guess the riddle?), shouldn't it be asking "what am I?" instead? It's like this is several riddles in a list and the question is "which one?" or "what am I asking?". I don't get any sense that one line is more important than the other, so I don't think it's asking to choose which, I think the riddle is asking, "what am I asking?" If that isn't it, I have no f-ing clue what the answer is.

We have to wait to hear from Zephik, but there are still these unsolved riddles...
"5 points will be rewarded to thee, if thou can make sense of this one, two, and three"
Cite one two-worded palindrome that can accurately describe the three-way relationship in the atomic particles of the non-metalic portion in lye.
