How about these?
1. What do men do standing up,
women do siting down and
dogs do on 3 legs?
2. What has roots as nobody sees, is taller than trees up, up it goes yet never grows?
3. Thirty white horses on a red hill, first they champ, then they stamp, then they stand still?
4. Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters?
5. An eye in a blue face saw an eye in a green face. " That eye is like to this eye" Said the first eye, "But in low place not in high place"?
6. It cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills, and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after, ends life, kills laughter?
7. A box without hinges, key or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid?
8. Alive without breath, as cold as death; never thirsty, always drinking, all in mail, never clinking?
9. This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees flowers; gnaws iron, bites steel; grinds hard stones to meal; slays kings, ruins town and beats high mountains down?

The man had hiccups and the bartender scared him to make him lose them, so he didnt need a glass of water.
