It's pretty simple really. He had a dollar which means he's suffereing from the economy or is just plain poor. Where does he live?? Yep the got damn PJ's. After 10 blocks it would put him 3 blocks away from the hood. :D

I bet if you say like "The Riddle" a bunch of times fast, or if u swap it around, u will get the answer, or "The Riddle is"


he says


"i tell you the answer every time i say THE RIDDLE"


so i bet that has a big part to do with it.


Maybe also it has to do with him needing riddalin, and the tenth block they couldnt take his ADD (the riddle is sounds like ridalin i guess lol)

I'll do that as soon as you change your handle to Celtfan1714, and you only visit us when we play your team. Deal? :wink:

That's what I was thinking. 1 cent = 1 block. He only had 10 cents left. Which would equal 10 blocks.

Yawn. Still going with that, huh? So we've got the Eddy Curry fat joke, the me being a Celtics fan garbage, and the wink emote. You're one lame sex joke away from hitting for the cycle in this thread!

I don't think that's it because it's way too obvious.

Answer...They're Idle... :oops:

The man himself doesn't know the answer. Watch it be something simple that we've all overlooked.

you know the answer? cough it up man!

otherwise unfortunately it looks like the only way we'll be able to find out is by putting a hit on his friend's dad. I hate it when I never find out the answer to a riddle.

There is an answer. He left the drum set behind and had to go back and get them. Not enough money to pay for the trip back so he had to walk. Nowhere in the riddle does it say that he got in the streetcar with the drums.

He gave them a dime for him, it didn't say anything about him and the drums. Carrying the drums could have cost more and he simply didn't have enough for transport. :dontknow:

Or it could have been a dead end.

Ya, that sounds like a good answer, except ..why would they kick him out if he forgot something?
