The game's very simple. You just have to post a riddle, and the person who posts next should try answering it, and should post their own riddle.
Example:
Why do birds fly South in winter?

My age today is three times what it will be three years from now minus three times what my age was three years ago. How old am I?

Let me guess..... 18 perhaps? Because three times what it will be three years from now (21*3 = 63) minus three times what your age was three years ago (15*3=45), that makes 18.

Wow... you got it right! :D
I'm as small as an ant as big as a whale. I'll approach like a breeze but can come like a gale. By some I get hit but all have shown fear. I'll dance to the music though I can't hear. Of names I have many of names I have one.
I'm as slow as a snail but from me you can't run. What am I?

There are Three Cannibals and Three Humans on one bank of a river,
there is only one boat,
They all need to cross the river, the boat can carry only 2 people at a time!
Criteria: If at a point of time (in any bank) the number of cannibals are more than the Human, then they will devour the humans...
How to make them cross?????

Let's assume they're crossing right to left, so to start, we have:
Right- Human x 3 Cannibal x3
Left-
Have one cannibal and one human cross together.
Right- Human x2 Cannibal x2
Left- Human x1 Cannibal x1
Have one human come back with the boat. Have two cannibals cross together.
Right- Human x3
Left- Cannibal x3
Have one Cannibal come back with the boat. Have two humans cross together.
Right- Human x 1 Cannibal x1
Left- Human x2 Cannibal x2
Have a human and a cannibal come back with the boat. Have two humans cross together.
Right- Cannibal x2
Left- Human x3 Cannibal x1
Have a cannibal come back with the boat. Have two cannibals cross together.
Right- Cannibal x 1
Left- Human x 3 Cannibal x2
Have a cannibal or a human come back with the boat, pick up the final cannibal and cross back to the left shore.
Right-
Left- Human x 3 Cannibal x 3
There may be a way to do it in less steps, but this is what I came up with.
