Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, January 29th, 2015

I’m a forwarded letter; the stores of one brand;
A reaction extended; the line of command;
Hierarchy of food; to securely remand;
And the path of suppliers fulfilling demand.

Who am I?

UPDATE (1/31/15): Nothing yet? Here’s the next riddle in the series:

I’m a strong type of mail; I make bicycles go;
Connect ankle to ball; help your tires in the snow;
I’m a calculus rule; smoking eight in a row;
And I measure first downs so the referees know.

Now, who am I?

UPDATE: Riddle(s) solved by Peter Jenkins. See comments for answer.

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, January 8th, 2015

I’m a World War II fighter, flown out of Japan;
In Producers and Forum, their films’ leading man;
I am nothing to speak of; hone in from a span;
And the hour we go, as described by the plan.

Who am I?

UPDATE (1/12/15): Nothing yet? Zip? Zilch? Here are some more clues:

I’m the Ground of New York 9/11 attacks;
The original Patient who plague first contracts;
I’m the Dark Thirty prefix, as Jessica acts;
And this blog’s total readers, when postings it lacks.

Now, who am I?

UPDATE (1/14/15): Still nothing? Nada? Goose Egg? Here are some more clues:

I’m a Schoolhouse Rock hero; a diet Coke name;
I’m the green on the wheel; a dress size with thin frame;
I’m a white-colored candy bar; sum of a game;
And this riddle’s times three, but my value’s the same.

Okay, now who am I?

UPDATE: Riddle(s) solved by Peter Jenkins. See comments for answer (plus one more riddle).

Eight Years

Thursday, January 1st, 2015

Today is the blog’s eighth birthday. There are currently 1,067 posts in 97 categories and 3,011 approved comments. There have been 152,588 unique hits to the blog. Because of the long hiatus earlier this year, I am no longer listed on Technorati. But, also because of the hiatus, maybe that’s a good thing.

Happy New Year to all within the sound of my voice! I’m looking forward to a happy and productive 2015!
