Blood pressure can go down with dilator medicines , but certainly not your age! So you get one point!

Blood pressure was my idea of a joke

I will not break your heart , it is a good logic, but not the original answer. I'm afraid I'll have to hold this point for you too.

Correct! The back of watch is always behind the time. One point!

Awesome, You got the correct answer. Silence can be broken without being hit or dropped. This is the answer I was waiting for, and with that, the point held for four persons are wiped out.

Making it neat and tidy, remaining questions:

5. What is it that passes in front of the sun yet casts no shadow?

7. As I was going through the woods, I found something, picked it up and couldn’t find it, ran home, looked for it, found it, didn’t want it and threw it away. What was it?

10. What is it that goes up and never goes down?

15. What is it that can and does speak in every known language and yet never went to school?

21. What is it that goes farther the slower it goes?

22. What is it that may be lost yet at the same time its location may be known?

The shadow of Earth on the Moon is the evident reason for eclipse.

Yes, yes, yes! It's the echo! 1 point!

Very logical, but not the one I want. I'll hold this point for you, till somebody else gives the right answer.

----------------------------
pdurrant - 8
Bookpossum - 3
Shayne Parkinson - 3
orlok - 1
Phyllis41 - 2
poohbear_nc - 1 (1 point on hold)
-----------------------------

Remaining questions :

5. What is it that passes in front of the sun yet casts no shadow?

7. As I was going through the woods, I found something, picked it up and couldn’t find it, ran home, looked for it, found it, didn’t want it and threw it away. What was it?

21. What is it that goes farther the slower it goes?

22. What is it that may be lost yet at the same time its location may be known?

-------------------------------

PS: As pdurrant is clearly is winning position, I request him to hatch some grand scheme for next game.

My thinking was that mpg improves if you drive more slowly, so you go farther. Bit of a stretch, I know, but it's straw-clutching time

22. What is it that may be lost yet at the same time its location may be known?
Your appetite? (another stretch...)
