I is good at sports.
...Not really :)
I'll bequeath upon you the honour of riddle rattler ;)
...as I killed the thread, I'll give this quaint rhyme:
Two legs sat upon three legs,
With one leg in his lap;
In comes four legs,
Runs away with one leg;
Up jumps two legs,
Catches up three legs,
Throws it after four legs,
And makes him bring back one leg.

1. Which room is safest for him?
I'd say the room full of assassins but NFI why. :)
2. A woman shoots her husband....
She has taken a picture, developed it the traditional way and then hung it - either to dry in the darkroom or on a wall.
3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?
Newspaper?
4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?
Yesterday, today, tomorrow.
5. This is an unusual paragraph.
There are no E's in the paragraph.
Funny enough, I have recently been reading "The Science of Secrecy: The History of Codes and Codebreaking" which makes reference to an entire book called La Disparation, a 200 page novel written by Frenchman Georges Perez in 1969. The entire book contained not one letter E. Presumably he didn't sign it, given his first and last name contain E's.
More amazing though was the English translation of this book by critic Gilbert Adair, again with no E's (and again, presumably without a signature...).

EDIT: lunchbox I was pretty sure that that riddle had no answer. That it was just a joke in Alice in Wonderland. But others disagree it seems:

Well done - we have answers for all of them except for two and five. I can't believe they made that old riddle into a CSI ep. Is a cool idea though.
