This topic is about short riddles, because not everyone likes to do the larger logical puzzles. If you do like those, then click here.
If you've guessed the riddle, you can immediately post another one yourself. Let's keep it going. 
I will start with this riddle:
What is easy to get into, but hard to get out of?
I am the teeth of the mouth of the earth
Darkness and water attended my birth
Softly and slowly extended in time
Name me and know me, solving this rhyme
What am I?
. I thought this one was pretty hard to guess, but you've got it nonetheless 
An ordinary American citizen, with no passport, visits over thirty foreign countries in one day. He is welcomed in each country, and leaves each one of his own accord.
How can this be?
The land of an embassy belongs to the country of the embassy, not to country where it's located.We see and scent. You saunter by.
Your eye may mark, your mind ignore
What look like bumps on logs afloat.
We crave a crunchy treat from shore.
What are we?
Twigs but no roots, leaves but no shoots;
Faring forever over the sand.
Filmmakers love me, but ranchers, they hate me.
I came here from Russia, isn't life grand?
What am I?
My step is slow, the snow's my breath.
I give the ground a grinding death.
My marching makes an end of me.
Slain by sun, or drowned in sea.
What am I?
I am always at your side.
To a slab my tail is tied
And my eyes are both inside my belly.
Tickle my back, one/two/three!
Wisdom and folly are yours to see.
What am I?
It roars like thunder,
And rises higher,
While breathing fire,
This wingless wonder.
If it leaves its cave,
Drags us in its tail,
Over hill and dale,
Then you must be brave.
Early morning flight,
Silently it flies,
Slowly in the skies.
Hides before the night.
My kingdom at least,
To the brave young knight,
If you name it right.
What is this huge beast?
@DarkWolf it sounds likes daylight, or perhaps the sun
@brenndansouthwind
That's not the right answer, but it's a pretty difficult one.
I can give a little hint..: It's a pretty unusual way you could get high into the air as a human.
@DarkWolf it's a circus cannon, I bet it'd be pretty fun/funny to get shot out of one :D
@brenndansouthwind never mind I change my answer to a hot air balloon as well. But the cannon thing would totally be so much fun
Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest a suspected murderer. They don't know what he looks like but they know his name is John and that he is inside the house. The police bust in on a carpenter, a lorry driver, a mechanic and a fireman all playing poker. Without hesitation or communication of any kind, they immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know they've got their man?
