Homegrown Riddle

I looked up, down, and all around.
I peeked above, beyond, but it was gone.
Looked for it's bold word , but so absurd.
For now I don't know, if I should go.

It was there, then, but not again.
Those pesky kids struck, with pick-up truck.
Now at their home, it lies, and drivers die
Without the one sign, to keep them fine.


What's this about?

An Old Riddle

As I was going to St Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
Each wife had seven sacks,
Each sack had seven cats,
Each cat had seven kits;
Kits, cats, sacks, and wives,
How many were there going to St Ives?

Riddle

The person who pays for it doesn't know it.
The person who owns it doesn't use it.
The person who uses it didn't pay for it.
And the person who loses it pays for it.

Two stones

There was a king who wished to mary a young women, not suprisingly though she did not wish to marry him. Although he could force the women to marry him ( because he is the king and can marry whoever he chooses) he did not want to make himeself look bad. So he came up with a plan to make it look somewhat fair to his subjects. he was to put two different coloured stones in a pot, one black and one white. the white one meant she did not have to marry him, the black one meant she did. This king however was selfish and wanted her no matter what, so instead of putting two different coloured stones he put two black ones, so no matter what she picked she would have to marry him. On the day she was to pick the stone she found this out.

How can the women avoid marrying the king?

hint: when she picks a stone she is OUTSIDE in front of a small crowd to witness the event

What am I?

I begin every party,
Come after every ‘Oh’.
Without me pills would make you sick,
And the things you sit on at church would be disgusting.

Car Auction

A man is going to an antique car auction. All purchases must be paid for in cash. He goes to the bank and draws out $25,000.
Since he does not want to be seen carrying that much money, he divides the money between fifteen envelopes labeled 1 through 15. Each envelope contains the least number of bills possible, for example, instead of two tens there would be a twenty, instead of two fives there would be a ten, etc.
At the auction he makes a successful bid of $8322 for a car. He hands the auctioneer envelopes 2, 8, and 14.
After opening the envelopes the auctioneer finds exactly the correct amount.
The amount of money in each envelope is mathematically related to the number on the envelope, with envelope 15 being an exception.

The question is; how many one dollar bills did the auctioneer find in the three envelopes?

The Urban Riddle

Come near, o men of wisdom, an search you through
my ditty:
Four buried in this rubbish cities fair are lying low,
Search 'till on every line you see stand up a risen city.
'Till walls and arches, terraces and turrets, upward grow.

This is a toughie, lets see if you can find all of the cities in the lines (there are only four, the line below the first doesn't count)
