Did he fall out of a plane and freeze to death in the high atmosphere?

Or he got stuffed into and locked inside the freezer of his ice cream cart last night.

I can figure out the riddles, it's the ones that sound like math problems that I can't seem to get, hahaha!
I don't have one off hand so someone who is dying to tell their riddle go ahead. :)

A brother and sister fighting; their father was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper and not be able to touch each other.

How'd he do it?

I feel like there are several answers for this, so maybe I'm missing the point.

An unfolded newspaper is easily large enough to support to children on it. Or, he put a divider between them. Or, he made one straddle the other w/o touching or something. The could each stand on one foot and lean away, and hold a rope between them for balance.

I don't know.

This is what I was thinking. I don't see where the riddle is.

I think it technically works.

I lie in a bed and never move, yet I turn over twice a year. What am I?

A man can love it more than life, yet fear it more than death; The poor have it and the rich require it; A contented man desires it; A miser spends it and it and the spendthrift saves it.

What is it?
