From the Doug Anthony All Stars (Australian comedy trio):
I cannot see.
I cannot wave.
I'm not a man,
And yet I shave.
This isn't a real riddle. I'll remind you that it was from a comedy trio who had very bad tastes. We had it playing in the car and turned the car off between the riddle and the answer. It had our friend stumped for an hour until we got in the car again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Booooo <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/down.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />! Anyway, my guess was something placed a little lower. Not a left leg, not a right leg, but something in between..... (*choughs nervously and looks over his back with a scared face*)
Anyway, about the thiefquestion, in one of the Amberbooks (by Roger Zelazny (might have been misspelled that...)), I think it is no 5, or maybe 4, the main char (called Corwin) suspects someone is going to assassinate him while he's asleep. Well, he always whanted to die in bed, but he thought more of being cruched by an elephant while he made love to someone...
