What walks on four legs in the morning, 2 during the day, and three in the evening? A bear who caught his leg in a trap? A deer that a hunter shot in the haunch or shoulder after rearing up on its hinds? A horse that was bitten on the leg by a scorpion during the day in the hot Arabian desert? No. A man. He crawls (not really 4 legs), then walks on 2, then uses a cane (also not really a third leg). When asking a riddle, you might as well ask, “What am I thinking of?” or, “Have you heard this one before?”. Otherwise, you’re not only being misled, but also in for a frustrating waste of time. And, might I add, this is coming from a guy who loves to guess things.
