Pronounced as one letter,
And written with three,
Two letters there are,
And two only in me.
I'm double, I'm single,
I'm black, blue, and gray,
I'm read from both ends,
And the same either way.
What am I?

OK, don't know if this is correct, but is it 'eye'?

OK, possibly not the best in the world, but here goes;

I have a spine, but have no heart. I can take you places, but I have no legs. I can be interesting, but I have no personality.

What am I?

I'm often held, yet rarely touched;
I'm always wet, yet never rust;
I'm sometimes wagged and sometimes bit;
To use me well, you must have wit.

Sorry! I promise not to know what the next one is. Actually, I can guarantee that I won't.

I am greater than god and more evil than the devil, The rich need me and the poor have me.

Is that too easy?

It's nothing, isn't it?
I thought love at first, but the part about poor was inconsistent.

I think the answer is clearly pie. I prefer pie to religion, but it's evil because it'll help you put on your pounds. The rich could really use one in the face to keep them down to earth, and the poor ...well alright, it's not pie.

I've seen this one before, and in Erimenes' absence, I'll verify that Maurog is correct.

I saw it too.But I would say the rich doesn't need anything than the rich needs nothing since it says they need it.

Oh well, here is another riddle:

I never ask questions, but always give answers.
Yet, when people talk to me, they learn nothing.

An echo. If I'm right, here's my riddle:

"Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is."

"language"...you are asking what the third word is in "the English language", not what the third -gry word is.

My riddle:

Robin Hood has been caught by the Sheriff of Nottingham! After he is uncerimoniously thrown onto the dirt floor of his cell and locked in, he is informed that he will be executed for his crimes in the morning, and he is then left to himself to ponder his situation. Besides the undoubtedly heavily guarded and unbreakable door, the only exit he can see is a small window that he is almost able to reach by jumping, but the walls are far too slick to climb. But by the time the guard opens the door in the morning for the execution, Robin Hood is long gone. How did he escape?

You shouldn't need to ask any questions to solve this, all the information is there. It's probably not too tough either...

Game on,

Heh...the solution is he made a mound out of the dirt to be able to reach the window. I don't know how you could possibly make a ladder out of dirt...but you got the spirit of the solution, so you're up.

Game on,

I meant stairs.
Sam went early to his friend’s party. As soon as he got there,Sam drank a glass of punch from the punch bowl. But he then received an urgent message and left the party early. He later found out that everyone else at the party who drank some punch died of poisoning.
WHY DIDN’T SAM ALSO DIE?

I don't know, maybe because he left early, and run fast, and sweat the poison out of it?

Whoever put poison in the punch did so after Sam left?
Edit: or rather after he'd filled his cup.

Another try, because it is in ice cubes, and when he drunk it it did not melt yet?

He was about 10 years early, so when the party actually started, the punch had gone off. Really gone off.

hmm..

question:

Were the people poisoned because of poison in the punch?
