Riddles, real ones

[JoeNightmare]

all of us are tiny creatures,
each of us has different features
one of us youll find in jet,
another of us in glass is set,
one of us youll find in tin,
the fourth of us is boxed within,
if the fifth you should pursue,
it can never fly from you.

Fingers?

[Jackard]

..Ore? Stones? Metal? :S

I say the 'elements': earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. I've a feeling it's not right, though.

Fingers?

Looks like gems. Or something embedded in gems, like flies in amber... which is found in jet.

Bullets?

Second... ore?

..Ore? Stones? Metal? :S

:O all wrong. Rozn got the first riddle right though.

I thought that second riddle was frighteningly easy. I cant wait to see how long it takes to get. Just think its very very simple.

Here is another one:
I live behind you, but always in sight.
You push me away, but I will cling tight.
You don't dare carry me, nor leave me behind.
I must always be paid, so keep me in mind.
I am useless in death, but am carried by all.
So hurry and pay, it'd do well not to stall.
What am I?

A debt

Another riddle:
What walks on 4 legs in the morning,
2 legs in the afternoon,
and 3 legs in the evening?

And another:
What is it which builds things up?
Lays mountains low?
Dries up lakes,
And makes things grow?
Cares not a whim about your passing?
And is like few other things,
Because it is everlasting?

[Fratari]

Two men walk into a bar. Both order the same drink prepared the same way.
One man guzzles his drink (thirsty fool); the other drinks slowly.
The former lives, the latter dies.
Why?

This one is the vowels of the alphabet. I know this because I am a HUGE The Dark Tower fan.
