Can you answer these riddles?

Can you answer these riddles? I was bored.

1. A cowboy enters a town on his horse on Saturday. Three days later he leaves on Friday. How is this possible?

2. A man looked at a newspaper and on the cover was a picture of a woman, a dead woman. This woman was last reported seen with her husband at the Swiss Alps skiing. Suddenly, she died, followed by the mysterious disappearance of her husband. The minute the man saw this he picked up the phone and called 911. The mysterious man was arrested later that day. Who was the man looking at the newspaper and what proof did he have that the man killed his wife?

3. Three brothers run an endless race. one is short and fast (he always is in first place), the second is tall and skinny (he is in second), and the third is short and fat (but is always last). Even though the brother in first place is in fact in first place, he is second in a way. Who are these three brothers? What is the endless race?

4. People investigated a scene where there were two dead, broken glass, and water. There was nothing else and the murderer has disappeared. There are also no fingerprints or other evidence. Who was the murderer? Who were the victims? What happened?

5. The person making it doesn't keep it. The person buying it doesn't use it. The person using it doesn't even know they are using it. What is it?

First to give me the correct answers wins TEN POINTS!

    1. His horse's name is Friday.

    2. The man was the couple's travel agent. He remembered selling the husband one round-trip ticket, and on one-way ticket, to Switzerland which means the husband had already planned for his wife's murder beforehand.

    3. It is an endless race against time because the brothers are the hands on a clock.

    4. The murderer was the cat, while the victims were two goldfishes. The cat decided to attack the fishbowl when no one was around, but in the end, it knocked the bowl down which caused it to break. The loud shatter frightened the cat which ran away, leaving both goldfishes to run out of usable oxygen and die.

    5. Coffin.

    Source(s): I love challenging riddles. Makes me think.

    1: His horse's name is Friday

    2: So many possibilities. But I'd say the man is the husband and decided to confess (or lost his memory but recognized himself in the newspaper, something like that)

    3: The hand of a clock. Time

    4: The cat was the murderer. He pushed the bowl while trying to attack the 2 goldfishes in it, broke it and ran away.

    5: A coffin
