Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

I’m the athlete who first puts a ball into play;
I’m a cake-slice-shaped spatula; also, a tray;
I’m a network computer that might cause delay;
I will bring you your food, and it’s me you’ll please pay.

Who am I?

I am musical storage, as jockeys might spin;
I’m the joint in the spine that holds vertebrae in;
I’m the Frisbee that’s thrown for the ultimate win;
And the brake on your car with its pads wearing thin.

Who am I?

I’m a shot used in volleyball, slammed to the floor;
To put liquor in something that had none before;
How a footballer celebrates running to score;
And a spot in a graph that shows suddenly more.

Who am I?

I’m a condiment commonly found on your tray;
To hit balls to your fielders, not too far away;
I’m a veggie with kick; I’m a dangerous spray;
And the Sergeant who once taught the band how to play.

Who am I?

I’m the way that a voice can give comfort or sting;
I’m an older phone’s cue; or a newer phone’s ring;
The impression of feelings an author can bring;
And a rapper who’d like you to do the Wild Thing.

Who am I?
