But graphite has more uses. I was specifically looking for pencil lead. Now riddle us Alex. :)

If I may, I'm going to post something that is an actual lateral thinking exercise, rather than a riddle.

A man is going the down the stairs. There's a power outage. When the power comes back, the man knows someone has died. Why does he know that?

He was in a hospital. When the power went out life support machines shut down.

Meat.
:P

A man and woman are speeding down an empty county road. Suddenly, the car runs out of gas. The man decides to run to the nearest gas station. He rolls up all the windows and locks the doors, leaving his wife in the car.
When he returns, their is another person in the car, but the wife didn't open the door.
How is this possible?

I like how nobody waits for confirmation that their guesses are correct. What if you're wrong? Oh, and OwA's guess was correct.

As for the newest one, is this other person his wife? After all, the wife is another person from the husband's perspective.

Ah. I'm going to throw another guess, then. Did this person get in through the trunk, which was the only part of the car not mentioned as being locked?

Take me with you, we will fly across the sea
To the land of the sun where our journeys begun
All fear is gone, we sail until the dawn
Deepest fears will burn inside your mind
For the souls lost in endless time


Their story shall be told in another time...another place
