Was thinking about this one. It is because to enter you have 2 of the same letters together e.g.  green (ee), glass (ss) etc ?

1) I cause wars and rebellions.
I am wanted by all, but denied by many.
I taunt those who cannot have me.
I am found in history, but my opposite is found even more.
What am I?

2) I can help keep things safe, keep the unwanted at bay, but if you forget me you may be outside all day.
----

3) One night, a maid, a pirate and a soldier went into an empty, abandoned house. The next day, 4 people came out. How is this possible?
(clue: read the riddle out loud)
----

4) What lies in bed, and stands in bed,
First white, then red.
The plumper it gets
The better the old woman likes it?
----

5) How many months have 28 days?

There is a low railroad bridge in your town. One day you see a large truck stopped just before the underpass. When you ask what has happened, the driver tells you that his truck is one inch higher than the indicated height of the opening. This is the only road to his destination. What can he do to get through the underpass the easiest way?

g. At least seven of these ten statements are false.
h. At least eight of these ten statements are false.
i. At least nine of these ten statements are false.
j. At least ten of these ten statements are false.


1: I'd say 5 socks. If there are 4 different coloured socks, you can take a max of 4 socks before you would double up on the colours (i think).

2: Is Osman a priest / minister or something along these lines...

3: I'm going for Statements 1 - 5 (this one hurt the brain- i just hope I got it right).
