Riddle Game
Everyone knows how this works but I'll explain anyway. One person posts a riddle and the person below posts an aswer. Below their answer they must post another riddle.
If you are stuck in a room with no doors or windows and all that is in the room is a table and a mirror, how do you get out?

You had to have entered into the room somehow. If there are no doors and no windows, how else could you have entered? The only explanation i can think of is that you have entered from above. You could just move the table towards the opening and climb out.

Hmm, how about the mirror is actually a magical portal... so you step inside and hey presto! You escaped the room!

ERM.... my mind goes blank when i try and figure them out..... especially this one... even though i know the answer lol  :
I'm as small as an ant, as big as a whale. I'll approach like a breeeze, 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. What am I?

let me think a bit longer, here's a rhyming one for you to chew on:
"I have a bed, but never sleep. i have a head, but never weep. i have a mouth, but never speak. what am i?"
