Riddle me this:

Greater than a god am I,
More evil than the devil am I,
The rich man wants me
The poor man has me
The wise man does not know me.

What am I?

I didn't know you were into riddles, V. But I believe Hakuba already answered this one. Do you have more?

I have quite a few, I'm afraid. Let us see...

There are four brothers in this world that were all born together. The first runs and never wearies. The second eats and is never full. The third drinks and is always thirsty. The fourth sings a song that is never good.

Who are they?

The four elements? Water, fire, earth and air, respectively.

Very good. You are correct.

Your turn.

Thick I live long
thin I live short
wind is my foe.

Who am I?

Alright, then.

There were five men going to church and it started to rain. The four that ran got wet, and the one that stood still stayed dry. Why?

Because he was standing inside?

No, he was outside with the others.

Consider why they might be going to a church.

Well, being in a coffin would forestall being rained on.

Very good. They were a dead man and his pallbearers.

Shame on me for taking two guesses on that...

Would you like another one?
