isn't it a person? baby crawls on four legs, middle aged people walk on two legs, and older people walk on two legs and use a cane.

and it think it was used in some sort of mythology... i don't know exactly because it's one in the morning.

am i right?
btw i didn't cheat. the comment before mine showed up when i refreshed.

:D
A man.
This riddle was first used in Oedipus Rex (?) by Sophocles, right? Oedipus has unknowingly killed his father on the road, and has arrived at Thebes. He meets the Sphinx, who is terrorizing the city, and answers the riddle correctly. The Sphinx kills herself, and Oedipus becomes a hero. He marries the widowed queen, who turns out to be his mother.

Whoo?
Correct!
now i sleep

i have decided that this is whear i will post before going to sleep
