1. What has a mare,
That the cow has not?
2. This side of a wolfhound
Has the most hair.
3. Its orange eye blinks,
The burning tears flow.
But what its sorrow is,
None may ever know.

"Wall" was correct.
1. Never resting, never still.
Moving silently, hill to hill.
It does not walk, run or trot,
All is cool where it is not.
2. Passed from father to sin,
And shared between brothers.
Its importance is unquestioned,
Though it is used more by others.
3. What goes with a wagon that
Doesn't benefit the wagon,
But the wagon cannot move without.

The answer to the riddle is:
1. We don't need wine,
We don't need meat.
We have sharp teeth,
But cannot eat.
2. It stands while others sit.
It groans when it is too full.
It has four legs, but cannot run.
3. It goes past gates,
But asks no one's leave.
It runs clear around castles,
Without taking a step.

Wrong on both. The answer to the riddle will only make sense if you know a bit of something about what a part of a certain machine is called.

Yes to all, though the first one is a generalist thing you could have also used: Musician or Bard.
1. Widows and orphans
Parents and kin.
This is disturbed most
By riots and war.
2. It can move over water,
But it cannot fly.
It can move under water,
But can stay quite dry.
3. Has tongue,
But cannot talk.
Runs,
But cannot walk.

1. Who works when he plays,
And plays when he works?
2. Names give power,
Magic to control.
But what is broken,
By naming it?
3. The language of men,
Can be mastered.
But what Kingdom word
Is always pronounced wrong?

THANK YOU! Wow! This is one of those things that I thought was lost to me. I've been searching for so many things that I remember but never got to see again. I almost thought my mind just made it up.

The word is:
"Message"
"How old is this" = age
"mess" = mess.
So it is mess age.
"Message"
"How old is this" = age
"mess" = mess.
So it is mess age.

There are some things that I've been searching for so I can finally get them out of my mind. Unfortunately, there isn't much I can remember about them. Anyway, if anyone knows anything about the source of these memories I'd appreciate some help finding the titles of the movies. Thanks.
1. There was a movie I saw about someone who walks into a house that is seemingly empty. Rolls of tape (the kind you'd find in a video or audio cassette) start coming off the rolls and follow after the guy blocking his way down the stairs and generally keeping him trapped. Eventually, he falls to the ground and the tape wraps completely around him like a mummy. The tape was animated with stop motion and it was aired on TV sometime in the 1980's.
2. A man ends up getting in trouble with the mob and they intend to kill him. The police are also after him. The few scenes I remember are that he's going to be thrown off the roof of a building but somehow manages to get the other to guys to fall off instead. The crime boss ends up getting killed on a dog racing track when the rabbit crashes into him and smashes him against the wall.
3. The phrase "I'll have your guts for cold cuts!"

Clever attempt at solving my riddle but the answer is no. It's a word I'm looking for not a number.

The answer to #2 is:
And #3 is:
To be fair, I have no idea the reasoning behind that one.
