Riddle:
5 pirates are parting ways after finding a treasure of 100 pieces of gold. The pirates decide to split it based on a vote.

Riddle:
I am a fruit. If you had two of me, I would sound just the same. If you rearrange my letters, it could be a crime. Add me to a montage and I can become a different fruit. Remove my head and you can still listen; take away the end and I can still be eaten. Without a piece of the center, I am still a word; take away all of the middle and I am just an acronym. What am I?
