A:
yes! If they hang him then he told the truth. If they shoot him then he lied.
Q:
There was this black dog in the middle of a black road all the houses are black and the moon and stars weren't out. The power was out in this town and a guy whose headlights were out was driving down the road and almost hit the dog but he swerved just in time. How did the man see the dog?

A:
that's correct enough, the answer is slightly simpler >> "it's daylight"
Q:
97% of Harvard grads couldn't answer this, yet 84% of kindergartenchildren answered this on an average of 6 minutes.
I turn polar bears white and I will make you cry
I make guys have to pee and girls comb their hair
I make movie stars look stupid and normal people look like movie stars
I turn pancakes brown and make your champagne bubble
If you squeeze me, I'll pop, and if you look at me you'll pop
Can you solve this riddle?

Regarding the "polar bear...pop" riddle: I can only conclude CHUCK NORRIS!
I ended up googling the riddle and can't say as I agree with the answer given in regards to the "pancakes brown" and "if you squeeze me, I'll pop" clues -- unless one is familiar with the children's poem that is cited as the root of the riddle, those clues really don't work too well.
And I did note that in the black dog riddle, you never said it was night, coulda been noon based on the info presented.
Here's sort of a riddle back:
How high would you have to count before you would use the letter A in the English language spelling of a whole number? (Assumes you start at zero and go up.)

Yup. Bit surprising, ain't it.
