Riddle

[Kenshin]

Think fast: There's an electric train traveling south. The wind is from the north-west. In which direction would the smoke from the train be blowing?

[BrokenShards]

Is the train on fire? If not, then their wouldn't be any.

[Mr Bigglesworth]

Perhaps if the conductor has climbed onto the top of the engine for his smoke break.

[BrokenShards]

Or it's an electric train carrying smoke machines to the annual smoke machine convention and the people in charge of the machines have decided to test them all at once.

[Love And Submission]

No way. The train has clearly been derailed and thrown down on the city of Tokyo by Godzilla hours ago.

[Mr Bigglesworth]

So Tokyo is now littered with running smoke machines?  Which way is the smoke travelling now?

[BrokenShards]

I think, like the train, we have derailed from the initial post.

Also if Godzilla is involved, we are only a few celebrities away from the ultimate showdown.

I have Batman's and Chuck Norris's numbers, lets get this thing set up.

Also, if no one minds, I'm going to post another riddle. :)

We are all very little creatures; all of us have different features.  One of us in glass is set; one of us you’ll find in jet.  Another you may see in tin, and a fourth is boxed within.  If the fifth you should pursue, it can never fly from you.  What are we?

[Oniya]

Vowels.

[chivalrousdeviant]

Yep! :)

Here, have another.

I pass before the sun but make no shadow.  What am I?

[BrokenShards]

Light?

[chivalrousdeviant]

Not technically, although you could argue it! I'd say no, because it comes from the sun rather than passing before it. :) The answer I was thinking of was wind. :)

East?




I'm small but i can survive in the desert.
I'm like the desert ground and I'm a carnivore but if need be I'll eat vegetation.
What am i?

[Daoine Sidhe]

A scorpion?

[LordHarketh193]

nope.
think bigger but not too big.

[Daoine Sidhe]

The runt of a giant scorpion litter?

[LordHarketh193]

nope, do you give in?

[Oniya]

Coyote?  I've heard that they'll raid for watermelons.

[LordHarketh193]

nope.

here's a hint.

"I'm small but i can survive in the desert.

What am i?"

Small.
Desert animal.
Carnivore and herbivore.
Blends in well with surroundings.

[Oniya]

Vulpes zerda?

[Daoine Sidhe]

I'm standing by my giant scorpion runt.  I say he's good enough.  Also, fairly cute.  You know... minus the giant venomous stinger.

[LordHarketh193]

haha


yer scorpians are cute but thats not it.

Here's another hint.

Big ears.
Covered in fur.

[Oniya]

I think you missed my post.   

[LordHarketh193]

no but i don't speak latin so i dunno what you put.

[Daoine Sidhe]

Coyote?  Pretty sure they only eat meat, though...  Vulpes is fox-related.  So... I'm guessing a desert fox?  (Yes, I'm cheating off of Lady Oniya's answer, since I don't want to look it up.)

P.S.  I really like the word "vulpine."  It sounds so sexy.
