yessir good job

I have a heart that never beats,
I have a home but I never sleep.
I can take a mans house and build anothers,
And I love to play games with my many brothers.
I am a king among fools.
Who am I?

King of Hearts in a deck of cards.

A sharpshooter hung up his hat and put on a blindfold. He then walked 100 yards ,turned around and shot a bullet through his hat. The blindfold was a perfectly good one, completely blocking the man's vision. How did he manage this?

You've been sentenced to death in an obscure foreign country which has a strange law. Before the sentence is carried out, two papers -- one with "LIFE" written on it and one with "DEATH" written on it -- are folded up and placed in a hat. You are permitted to pick out one of the papers (without looking), and if you choose the one with "LIFE" written on it, you are set free. Otherwise, the death sentence is carried out. On this occasion, a mean-spirited acquaintenance of yours, bent on your demise, has substituted the paper with "LIFE" written on it with another one with "DEATH" written on it. This person gleefully informs you of what he has done and that you are doomed to die. You are not permitted to speak to anyone about this misdeed, nor will you have a chance to switch the papers or the hat yourself in time. How will you avoid certain death?

Eat it so then the guy has to look at the other paper and he assumes you got the one that says life.

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

What is it?

you have $1, meaning you have assets worth $98 ($97 worth of shirt + $1 cash). your debt is also worth $98 ($49+$49).

the math in the original riddle seems off. just make a balance for every situation and the sum always has to be 100. and it is.

the match

ok so your walking home and the path your on splits into two.  One is the right way and the other is the wrong way home.  Infront of each path there stands a man.  One man always tells the truth and the other always lies.  You don't know which one is which and your allowed to ask them one and only one question.  What do you ask them?

You ask them which way the other man will tell you the right path is. Then go the other way.

An electric train is traveling at 90 kilometers per hour due south. A wind from the north is blowing at 95 kilometers per hour. Which way will the smoke go?

riddles like this are too easy
its electric so theres no smoke

First think of the person who lives in disguise,
Who deals in secrets and tells naught but lies
Next, tell me what's always the last thing to mend,
The middle of middle and end of the end?
And finally give me the sound often heard
During the search of a hard-to-find word.
Now string them together, and answer me this,
What creature would you be unwilling to kiss?

Haha just once. After that you're subtracting five from 20, 15, etc. I had to think about that for a second. At least I assume that's the correct answer and it's not some trick question.
