    What is the shyest thing in the world.

    Riddles
    If you get up on an asses back where will you get down?
    Under a goose's wing.
    What is the shyest thing in world?
    A clock.
    Round the wood and round the wood and sleeps in the wood all night?
    A dish cloth.
    Father and mother sister and brother running all day and cannot catch one another?
    A motor car
    Why is dancing so much like new milk?
    Because it strengthens the calves.
