Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I’m a time when you eat a particular food;
I’m a year of a sport that a champ will conclude;
To add spice to your dinner as soon as it’s stewed;
And the length a TV show is often renewed.

Who am I?

I’m addition, subtraction; I’m Not, But, and And;
I’m a surgical process that’s carefully planned;
I’m an action covert with a central command;
And a game where it helps to be steady of hand.

Who am I?

I’m a spicy sweet pepper; I’m Ma on the phone;
I’m the graph distribution most commonly shown;
I’m a cup with a clapper that’s struck for a tone;
And a nationwide symbol of freedom well-known.

Who am I?

I am one of four elements from an old school;
I’m the act of combustion – the burning of fuel;
I’m the discharge of weapons in war or in duel;
Terminating employees can often be cruel.

Who am I?

I’m the flower that breaks from the bud where it hides;
I’m the county of comics where Opus resides;
The taxonomy that ordered thinking divides;
I’m Ulysses lead Leo, and Molly besides.

Who am I?

I’m an old Chinese dynasty, skilled with the ship;
I’m a thorny-tailed fish with large fins on my hip;
I’m a powdered fruit drink that the astronauts sip;
And the part of a blade that extends through the grip.

Who am I?

I’m a speck in the sky when the daytime is through;
In a restaurant’s rank, or a movie’s review;
A celebrity famous, like Jones from The View;
Or perform as the lead in a theatre debut.

Who am I?

I’m removing a slice; or to lower a price;
An incision precise; or an editor’s splice;
Make a speech more concise; if a trim would look nice;
To shift half the deck twice; or the fate of blind mice.

Who am I?

I’m a violent attack in an ice hockey rink;
I’m an energy bar; or an energy drink;
How a sniper can kill when precisely in sync;
And an actor’s best photo, so try not to blink.

Who am I?

I am cutlery’s name when I’m non-silver ware;
I am pop with no fizz; or a tax that seems fair;
A one-bedroom apartment by St. George’s Square;
And a wheel with no air that’s replaced by a spare.

Who am I?
