[TurcoLoco]

This was way too easy, hence Star even got it!!!

But in case there is a 'Giz' angle on it, I am going with the 'R' rated answer: 'M@sturb@tion'.

I weaken all men for hours each day.
I show you strange visions while you are away.
I take you by night, by day you take back,
none suffer to have me, but do from my lack.
What am I?

I'm as small as an ant, as big as a whale.
I'll approach like a breeze, but can come like a gale.
By some I get hit, but all have shown fear.
I'll dance to the music, though I can't hear.
Of names I have many, of names I have one.
I'm as slow as a snail, but from me you can't run.

"The day before yesterday I was 22, but next year I'll be 25."
What is her birthday and when was the date of our conversation?

ANSWER (No winners): Her birthday is December 31, and the date of conversation is January 1.

Sorry, leap year is too much of a gap for this particular riddle. Read it more carefully.

Black I am and much admired,
men seek me until they're tired.

and take from me my resting bed.

Ok, genius, she was 22 on December 30, on December 31 she turned 23, how the heck is she gonna be 25 the next year? Please explain cause this riddle didn't make sense at all!

[Gizmokid2005]

Ok...let me see if I can put this into idiot terms for you TL

You are right TL, on 12/30/00 she was 22.

To make this easy, assume she turned 23 on December 31, 2000 (12/31/00).

We talked to her on 01/01/01. This year she turns 24 on 12/31/01. NEXT year is 2002...and at the end of next year (12/31/02) she will be 25...

Simple as that...
