I got these from another website..........

There is a small town were if you tell a lie, you will be hanged. A traveller was passing through. "What is your business here?" asked a villager. What did the traveller say to the villager, so he would not know if she was telling the truth?

What is it that gets wetter when it dries?

- Am & Megz

Two coins add up to 30 cents and one of them is not a nickel, what are the two coins?

-Danielle

I think I know Danielle's riddle because i heard it on the Cosby Show. The answer was, A quarter and a nickel.

But I do not know the answers to the other two.

the answer to the second one is a towel. I don't know the answer to the first one.

I'm guessing on the first one:

The traveller said, "I am a liar"

I've heard this before, at least a variation of it, I believe he say "I will be hanged" or something like that.
