A man hangs his hat and walks 500 yards forward with his eyes closed. He then turns around and shoots his hat with his pistol with his eyes still shut. He hits the hat.

How did he do this?

It is able, but not capable.
It can stop, but not go.
It is dead, but not yet perished.
It's a ghost, but not paranormal.

Question: Is the answer to this riddle 'high', or is it 'low'?
(explanation required, guesses don't count wink)

@DarkWolf

You don't want an explanation, you want a "defining, note-like statement." The answer is high.

The answer is indeed highyessmiley. I will give unlimited bragging rights to the person that figures out why high is the right answer. But for now, we will move on.

Ok, I'm sorry, I didn't fully understand that.. But your explanation is not the explanation of the original riddle. So I'm still searching for the explanation as the maker of the riddle meant it.

A pet shop owner had a parrot with a sign on its cage that said "Parrot repeats everything it hears." A young man bought the parrot and for two weeks he spoke to it but it didn't say a word. He tried to return the parrot but the shopkeeper said he never lied.

How can this be?

Someone has deleted the posts of the member that answered this riddle. But the answer that was given, which was also the right answer, is that the parrot is deaf.

This is a good one and I know the answer. Only because I have heard it before. I won't ruin it for anyone that wants to have a go at it though ;)

@DarkWolf Still dwelling on this riddle. Do we get any hints for a jumpstart or do we have to wait until someone super clever comes along to make us go "Duh!!"?

Good idea, but it's not something abstract. Another hint.. what do some people do when they are nervous?
