A man goes out drinking every night, returning to his home in the wee hours of every morning. No matter how much he drinks, he never gets a hangover. This drink is very well known, but is rarely consumed, served warm and taken straight from its source. The man is a sucker for a free drink, especially since he can't live without it. What is his favorite drink?

Does anyone else know the answer to the riddle?

How about this one:

Four cars come to a four way stop, all coming from a different direction. They can't decide who got there first, so they all go forward at the same time. They do not crash into each other, but all four cars go. How is this possible?

each of these has been up for a while. How about solutions?

I can be created by humans, But they cannot control me. I suck on wood, paper and flesh alike. I can be more of a hindrance than help at times. To my creators, I seem to be everywhere at once. What am I?

What is it that is deaf, dumb and blind and always tells the truth?

"What is it that is deaf, dumb and blind and always tells the truth?" A mirror. "I can be created by humans, But they cannot control me. I suck on wood, paper and flesh alike. I can be more of a hindrance than help at times. To my creators, I seem to be everywhere at once. What am I?" - I never figured out the answer to this one. Who submitted it? "A man goes out drinking every night, returning to his home in the wee hours of every morning. No matter how much he drinks, he never gets a hangover.

made all three obvious via subtle hints...

In the movie 'Tommy' (The Who rock opera), Tommy found himself by staring into the mirror (deaf, dumb & blind?). He was a pinball wizard & I mentioned I needed to reflect on the answer.

A: A Baby. I mentioned that I would have to enter my earlier life stages to answer

& Yes, I BIT on that one...

The 4-way: I thinking I'm heading in the RIGHT direction, but want to see if anyone else can solve.

Ahh! Cannot fool you at all, Beetle. I remember all your hints and you are always "Right On!"

Hmmm...on the intersection puzzle, I am sure you are taking the RIGHT direction.
