I didn't even think of a Drinking Glass! Hope Rain of Walrus will be back today. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! For in between, while waiting for Rain of Walrus, you people may solve this: Of no use to one Yet absolute bliss to two. The small boy gets it for nothing. The young man has to lie for it. The old man has to buy it. The baby's right, The lover's privilege, The hypocrite's mask. To the young girl, faith; To the married woman, hope; To the old maid, charity. What am I? Talk to you in a bit... :bugeye:

Since no one has guessed it, I will give the answer. It must be one of those toughies... Almost everyone sees me without noticing me, For what is beyond is what he or she seeks. What am I? A window
drinking glass. you'd need special light and/or spray paint to help negate the transparency of the drinking glass. getting closer, the answer is right under your noses. Ismu, good guesses but not the right answer. HINT: what is definitely in *every* home? regardless of objects that one might find in every home.

Don't know if it has been posted yet, here are a couple of my favourites that I found a long time ago. If anyone has an answer that fits, email me or send a message, have fun. OMEGA july/august 1983 Here are the 2 unsolved riddles. The will of Miss Anna Seward an 18th century poet who was a friend of Darwin's grandfather and known as the Swan of Lichfield, contained a riddlelike puzzle and directions to pay 50 pound to the person who solved it. The noblest objects in the works of art, The brightest scenes which nature can impart; The well-known signal in the time of peace, The point essential in a tennant's lease; The farmers comfort as he drives the plough, A soldier's duty, and a lover's vow; A contract made before the nuptial tie, A blessing riches never can supply; A spot that adds new charms to pretty faces, An enngine used in fundamental cases; A planet between the earth and sun, A prize that merrit never yet has won; A loss which prudence seldom can retrieve, The death of Judas, and the fall of Eve; A part between the ankle and the knee, A papist's toast, and a physician's fee; A wife's ambition, and a parson's dues, A miser's idol, and the badge of Jews. If now your happy genius can divine The correspondent words in every line, By the first letter plainly may be found An ancient city that is much renowned. By Miss Anna Seward 18th century poet. The Bishop of Salisbury offered a mere 15 pound to the person who solved this riddle. I sit lone on a rock Whilst I'm raising the wind, But the storm once abated I'm gentle and kind. I've kings at my feet Who await but my nod, To kneel down in the deep, On the ground that I've trod. Tho' oft seen by the world, I am known to but few; The gentiles despise me, I'm pork to the Jew. I never have passed But one night in the dark, And that was with Noah Alone in the ark. My weight is three pounds, My length is a mile; And when I'm discovered You will say with a smile- That my first and my last Are the best of our isle. By the bishop of salsbury.
at times you see me. and at times you dont. at times you see through me. at times you dont. often I hold things. often I do not. Im in every house. What am I? That could easily fit the same answer as the one I gave. Windows...
Good luck with that one John. I gather there have been a lot of people that have tried to solve those.
As a side note folks, the Backslash thread, which had 42 pages is now within range of being reached. I looked back and it is now on the 5th page. Unusal as it was a staple of the Free Thoughts thread for so long.
