    Default Need help solving three riddles

    Please help me with the answers to these three riddles:

    • What is it that leaps and runs and has no feet?
    • Often talked of, never seen. Ever coming, never been. Daily looked for, never here. Still approaching, coming near. Thousands for its visit wait, but alas for their fate. Tho' they expect me to appear, they will never find me here. What am I?
    • I am sometimes strong and sometimes weak, but I am nobody's fool. For there is no language that I cannot speak, though I never went to school. What am I?
    Thanks

    Maybe the first one is a ball? Although I don't really know how a ball would be considered to run....

    #1 is definitely a ball.

    RF, a better riddle for you to try to figure out is wtf the result means when you solve these. I'm stumped.
