Spider. You remind me of a guy from the ACForums. There was a thread about office-related jargon, and he posted oceanfuls of not-office-related-and-unpronounceable acronyms.
I don't need to tell you which user, just read this if you want to witness stupidity in its highest graces.

Here's a riddle.

A man walks into walmart and loads 30 cases of soda into a cart and walks out without paying for it. The LP's do nothing and no one else calls the cops. The following week he brings back 25 cases and gets money.

What the solution?

Don't know if this make a difference, but the Die Hard riddle beings "As I was going..." instead of "While I was going..."  The word while kind of implies that it was something that happened on the duration of the journey.  "As I was going..." seems more likely to imply that it happened en route.

If you break me, I'll not stop working. If you can touch me, my work is done. If you lose me, you must find me with a ring soon after. What am I?

Sounds like an ice cube.

Give this man a cigar. Correct. As for the elevator riddle I can remember what the solution is.

Here's a riddle from a book I have:

A rich man's son was kidnapped. The ransom note told him to bring a valuable diamond to a phone booth in the middle of a public park. Plainclothes police officers surrounded the park, intending to follow the criminal or his messenger. The rich man arrive at the payphone (no he didn't use a redbox) and followed the instructions but the police were powerless to prevent the diamond from leaving the park and reaching the crafty villain. What did he do?

 A homing pigeon could be left in the booth with a small container attached to its leg for the diamond. Kidnapper watches from a distance. If there is any 'funny buisness' (like rich man not releasing the pigeon, or bringing in police to put a tracking the device on the pigeon) then kidnapper does not release the son, and doesn't wait around at the spot where the pigeon is going to go. If all goes well, kidnapper takes the next flight to the pigeon's home and waits for it to arrive.

Uhm, this is a weird one. Nowhere does it say that the guy was supposed to leave the diamond in the booth. So from what I can guess the crafty villain had the rich man go into the booth. The phone rang. The rich man picked it up and was told what to do next.

gangels was right about the pigeon.

Here's the solution from the book:

This is a true story from Taiwan. When the rich man reached the phone booth, he found a carrier pigeon in a cage.It had a message attached teeling the man to put the diamond in a small bag which was around the pigeon's neck and to release the bird. When the man did this, the police were powerless to follow the bird as it returned across the city to it's owner.


Here's another riddle.

A mischievous fellow decided to pee out the window of the el train he was on. A police officer on the ground saw this and ran to the train platform which was 100 feet away. When the cop got on the train the perp was gone.

From the above riddle figure out what I'm trying to spell out. The answer is quite easy.
