Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

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?

I’m a covered coach wagon that horses pull through;
I’m to organize protests, a strike, or a coup;
I’m a spot for a play, or a vaudeville revue;
I’m each age named by Jaques, and all the world, too!

Who am I?

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

I am feeling a loss with a sense of regret;
Put the ball in no hoop, put the puck in no net;
I’m an Ole football team; beauty queen epithet;
Or a title for girls who are not married yet.

Who am I?

I’m a layer that floats on the liquid below;
Educational strips; or to shoot video;
The old cameras need me, but digital, no;
And a movie that theatres are ready to show.

Who am I?

I’m a pastime or hobby you choose to embrace;
When policemen or hunters embark on a chase;
I’m a trivial game; I’m a stagger-start race;
And the happiness-seeking the Founders gave place.

Who am I?

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, July 21st, 2011

I’m a cell in a prison; or store in a boat;
Keep a bill off the floor, thus preventing a vote;
I’m suspending a call; or sustaining a note;
And a grip used in wrestling that might choke your throat.

Who am I?

Thursday, July 14th, 2011

I’m a drug-induced dream had while mostly awake;
When you jet off to Europe, or drive to the lake;
I’m the guilt that’s laid on; when a circuit you break;
When you stumble by foot; or make any mistake.

Who am I?

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

I’m a farm or a field or a rocky terrain;
I’m to bring in a fish; I’m to put down a plane;
When you wind up in jail; when a job you obtain;
And the Polaroid camera came straight from my brain.

Who am I?

I am soft fluffy feathers, both real and synthetic;
An order for dogs to feel apologetic;
A time frame in football for waxing athletic;
A payment up front; and a syndrome genetic.

Who am I?

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

I’m to straighten a picture that’s hung in a frame;
A particular stage of a video game;
I’m a tool to ensure that all heights are the same;
And I’m pointing a weapon to take steady aim.

Who am I?
