I swap places with my mirror twin. Admittedly I'll still be in a concrete room, but it will be a different one.

I use the mirror to concentrate gamma rays given off by the table, turn green, grow ten feet tall and bust through the wall.

How do I know there is a mirror? Where is the light coming from that lets me see that it's a mirror?

Reincarnation.

Q installed the table with a concrete wall busting laser. I use the mirror to admire my reflection before stepping out the hole.

The fact that I can see that one of the objects with me is a mirror despite the fact that there is no light source in the room makes me realize I am in a universe where magic works. I cast a spell to remove myself from the room, but after only spending a considerable amount of time entertaining myself with umm... entertaining things I had summoned.

I break the mirror and that causes the bad luck of a meteorite hitting my room, freeing me. I then get run over by a military transport.

Trapped in a room with only a table and a mirror I would have no life. Logically, that which has no life can not die. Therefore I wait for erosion to free me after a period of several thousand years.

Something like this?

You look in the mirror to see what you "saw", take the "saw" and cut the piece of wood in half. Put the two halves together to make a "whole", and then just crawl out through the "whole"

I ran into it a while back. I don't think it is a particularly good riddle, more of a word game.

I always get a little bit annoyed by the riddles that are things like:

My uncle is a butcher. He is 6 feet 2, wears a size 11 shoe, and his waist is 38 inches. What does he weigh?

It's not really a good test of how smart you are, but requires a good comprehension of the vagaries of the English language. Kind of like the joke, which may not be all that funny.

Farmer 1: I have a goat with no nose.
Farmer 2: Oh, really? How does it smell?
Farmer 1: Terrible.

Hehe, you beat me. I knew that from when I was about 10. (yeah a century or two ago.) It ranks (either meaning) right up there with Eating Dates from a calader, drinking water from a bed spring, drinking a bear and driving off in a jaguar.

One of its legs is both the same.

I tracked a bear from my tent the other day while I was out camping. I followed it south for two miles and then one mile east whereupon it slept for ten minutes. When it woke up again I followed it south for another mile and then west for two miles.. At this point I gave up and walked north for three miles back to my tent. What colour was the bear?

It's not really a riddle, but I like to say to people, "Hey, you know what I heard?"

They say, "No, what?"

I say, "Sheep."

I was surprised that the room didn't also have a cask of Amontillado.
How unthoughtful of the host.

Ooh! Never heard that one before, but allow me to hazard a guess.

He weighs meat?

Dig, using fashioned implements from the table and the mirror. Human flesh regenerates. Concrete does not. Assuming food/water supply continues, human wins, concrete fails.

OK - SO WHAT'S THE "CORRECT ANSWER?"

And if it's a 24" thick, steel-reinforced concrete wall, I think I could, given enough desire, break through that in less than 24 hours.

Of course, survival school is but one of several eye-openers...

Whoever says "perception is reality" is daft. It's merely an abstraction, and often not a very good one.

Or Amaretto!
