OK, so, basically, this is just a trial. I'll have to take your word for it that you don't use google or anything.
Bold + Underlined~ Solved
1) Sirius, James, Peter, Severus and Remus took a Charms O.W.L.. Remus was not last, Severus was not first or last. Remus scored higher than James, Severus scored higher than Peter, Sirius scored lower than James but higher than Severus. In which order were their results?
^ Remus, James, Sirius, Severus, Peter. 5 Points to Gryffindor, thanks to Lily Evans!
2) Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.
^This riddle is supposedly unanswered. However, a clever person on a site managed to work it out. I'd say... 15 points, since this one is difficult.
3) A woman goes into a hardware store to buy something for her house. When asked the price, the clerk replies, "the price of one is twelve cents, the price of forty-four is twenty-four cents, and the price a hundred and forty-four is thirty-six cents. What does the woman want to buy?
^ This one's for 5 points.
4) What is the beginning of eternity. The end of time and space. The beginning of every end. And the end of every place?
^ I'd say 5 points again.
Check back later, I think Riss is adding some more. Also, I may add some more.
