Found this on the net...:)
If you read the second sentence you see that the "third" word is "hungry".

The author is writing here about the third word in the second sentence of the riddle, exactly as quoted, NOT some mythical third commonly used English word ending in "-gry".

[Little Angel]

"Gry" is a word:hurray: Is it Gry?:3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

Not in my dictionary whats it mean:grin:

[Lady Bump]

where did you find this answer I need proof:brow: not just handing chocolates over freely you know:3rofl3:

[Little Angel]

Or it can be defined as a unit of measurement..

[Little Angel]

http://www.mindinfinity.net/define/gry.html

[Lady Bump]

Yes I know youre right but afraid Ive eaten the chocolates, Sas threw everyone off the track and then you put up language and the answer was just staring at you above.. well done megan:cheers: I can send you the empty box, still smells like chocolate if you like:3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3:

[Little Angel]

Gee thanks Julie:eviltongu:3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

Not my fault you took too long:3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3:

[Little Angel]

Now i can get the darn riddle question out me head and get some real sleep:3rofl3::3rofl3::3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

Boy did it worry you that much:3rofl3: You get some glasses before I put the next one up, :brow:

In its original form, the first two sentences have absolutely "nothing" to do with the question: "Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them." Ignore those two sentences. They are there only to throw you off. (Worked, didn't it?)

There is a word "Gry" like you said megan But " Language" is the actuall answer to the original riddle:laughing:

[Little Angel]

Next one?:5Thud::3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

Megan you saw the answer 3 days ago, when you wrote language and so did sas, so it was easy:grin: the next one will be hard:brow:

[Lady Bump]

Easy one for you Vonnie:

who told you:laughing:

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?

George, Helen, and Steve are drinking coffee.
Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda.
Using logic, is Elizabeth drinking coffee or soda?

[Little Angel]

Crikey, surely gotta be worth more than 2 of those little clinkers:3rofl3:

:Woo Hoo: fine.... clinker centres it is:14clap:

[Little Angel]

Shes drinking coffee cuz she had a hangover lastnight:thumb::3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

-1 clinker for that answer.:5smackbot

1 hint...Names

[Little Angel]

George, Helen, and Steve are drinking coffee.
Bert, Karen, and Dave are drinking soda.
Using logic, is Elizabeth drinking coffee or soda?


Hey! George, Helen and Steve all have 2 E's in their names (which fits Elizabeth in well because she has 2 E's in her name) and the word coffee has 2 E's so i presume Elizabeth will be drinking coffee with the other 3 because Bert Karen and Dave only have 1 E.

[Lady Bump]

Youre good:3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3:or a chocoholic:laughing: bet youre searching the net for the answers:3rofl3: :3rofl3: :3rofl3:

Answer:
Elizabeth is drinking coffee. The letter E appears twice in her name, as it does in the names of the others that are drinking coffee.

How can you make the following equation true by drawing only one straight line:
5+5+5=550

Can you figure it out?

[Little Angel]

5+ 5 (change the + into a 4 using 1 line which will make a 4) + 5 = 550 ...so 5 + 545 = 550..did Miss Einstein get it right, if so its worth more than a bl**dy Mars Bar:3rofl3::3rofl3::3rofl3::3rofl3::3rofl3:

[Lady Bump]

Long way round for the explanation but spot on:12cheer: :12cheer:

Draw a line on the first plus sign. This turns it into a 4! The equation then becomes true:
545+5=550

Alternate answer: Draw a line through the equals sign, making it a "not equal to" sign
