The Bloody Child Riddle
The second apparition in "Macbeth", the bloody child, recommends 'be bloody, bold and resolute, laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of woman born shall harm Macbeth'. How was the Thane of Fife able to kill Macbeth in the light of this prophecy?
Hint:
His mother had a Caesarean.
A bit of a quibble really but those apparitions did not play fair; Macduff was from his mother's womb untimely ripped. Presumably this was an early Caesarean. Did you answer this riddle correctly?
YES NO

Masks I Wear Many
Masks I wear many,
But not many see behind them.
Always rejected
Except by those dark as the one I despise.
I hate and I fear One of whom I will not speak
Yet I throw myself continually at his feet.
I am continual.
When all other hope is gone, I remain.
Those I defend I do not love,
And those I fight I cannot hate.
The one who hates me most
Is the one I will die to protect.
WHO AM I?

There was little on the island, few coconuts, small amount of clean water, and some pineapple. There were also quite a few pelicans, which the man thought was strange cause there was so little food on the island. Well one day his son died. They were devastated. The man and his wife tried to survive by eating the pineapples and trying to catch a pelican but never could catch one. When the man was close to death his wife had brought him some meat from a pelican that she had caught. He loved it and that saved his life. He was rescued by a helicopter and brought back to his city without his wife cause she had died before. So one day back in the city he went into a bar and he ordered a pelican sandwich to remind him of his wife. He took one bite and he went outside and shot himself. Why did he kill himself?
Hint:
He took one bite of it but it was not the same meat that his wife had given to him on the island. He realized that the meat she had given him on the island was really her dead son.
