I have an eye but cannot see, what am I?

Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the tallest mountain on earth?

Tell me when you have given up 

Oh, and don't cheat    Edna is watching...

The first is a hurricane, and the second is still Mt.  Everest (though K2 is actually taller in the winter months, due to snow pileup).

A yellow eye in a blue face saw a yellow eye in a green face and thought "that eye is alike to this eye, but in a low place and not in a high place".  What are the objects mentioned?  (Yes this is from Lord of the Rings)

He crashed into another car?

Yes, he crashed into something (into what, doesn't matter). But why does he crash?

He was talking on the phone and not focusing on the road 

Wrong. He was fully focusing on the road.

In my riddle, yes the man was walking.

It's an acceptable answer.  So is a potato and a needle.

Yes but Potatoes and Hurricanes can see... ummm... secretly 

I told that riddle to TDD this morning, and she got it in 2.5 seconds

Okay. You're looking at a one-story house in the 'burbs. The outside of the house is yellow, the grass is painted yellow. The walls of the dining room is yellow, the ceiling and floor too. The tables and furniture is yellow. The walls, ceiling and floor of the bathroom is yellow. The toilet and counter, faucets, and toothbrushes are yellow. The doors are yellow. The carpet is yellow, the pots are yellow. The sink is yellow. The TV is yellow. The computer is yellow. What's the color of the upstairs bathroom?

... It's yellow! So easy.

No.

It's a one-story house. It doesn't have an upstairs bathroom.

A guy is going the wrong way down a one way street, and there is a cop nearby. He is not sleeping and will see any misdoings. Why does the man not get arrested by the cop?

EDIT: echs, its a one story house.

Is he walking?

Here's an oldie:
You're standing in front of two doors:  One leads to eternal riches, the other to gruesome death.  In front of both doors is a goblin each.  One always lies, one always tells the truth.  You do not know which one is which.  You may ask only one question to one goblin.  What do you ask to know for sure the door that leads to eternal riches?

You ask one Goblin, "Would the other goblin say that this door leads to eternal riches?"

Got it from the Labyrinth 

I got a few good ones.

Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How did he do it?

A woman shoots her husband.
Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes.
Finally, she hangs him.
But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together.
How can this be?

A boy was at a carnival and went to a booth where a man said to the boy, "If I write your exact weight on this piece of paper then you have to give me $50, but if I cannot, I will pay you $50."

The boy looked around and saw no scale so he agrees, thinking no matter what the carny writes he'll just say he weighs more or less.

In the end the boy ended up paying the man $50. How did the man win the bet?

Sergi and Sally where sitting in their family room one night. While Sergi was watching T.V his wife Sally was reading. All of a sudden the power went out and Sergi decided to go to bed, but Sally kept on reading. With no use of artificial light, Sally kept on reading. How?

... Has everyone given up?! C'mon, it's really not that hard    I'll give you a clue, the object isn't an eye 

EDIT: I'm going to sleep now, I'll tell you the answer to the riddle next afternoon, that gives you around 17 hours    Good luck! And no googling 

It's the eye of a needle 
Like I haven't heard that one before

She uses a NERF gun, she holds a glass of water over his head, and she holds him by his feet over a railing.  Then they go out to dinner.

Nope
