Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

I’m what Yogi the Bear calls his number one prize;
I’m a place for used paper and other supplies;
A collection of goods that show prices can rise;
And I’ll hold all your eggs, though it may not be wise.

Who am I?

I can tackle a task; I can often be brute;
I drop balls you release and launch bullets you shoot;
When a runner in baseball must follow his route;
I’m the cops on the beat; I’m the troops with the chute.

Who am I?

I’m a picnic locale on the grass by the lake;
You can maintain your bike with the tools that I make;
I am stopping your car and applying the brake;
And when South, a cartoon that can really look fake.

Who am I?

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

I’m an arm with no hand; I’m a tree with no trunk;
On campaign trails, a speech that is often pure bunk;
I’m the Fall Out Boy frontman, a player of punk;
And when riddles are hardest, I’m named when you’re sunk.

Who am I?

I am cash with no rules; I am Rock with no kicker;
I’m a target sans guard; I’m a drink with no liquor;
I’m not metal or wood – I am leather or wicker.
If the answer’s not hard, you should think of it quicker!

Who am I?

I’m the man coming home; I’m the back with the ball;
I come after you walk (which is after you crawl);
Politicians announcing they’ll answer the call;
And demands on a bank which can cause them to fall.

Who am I?

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

I am summer and autumn and winter and spring;
The song “Walk Like a Man” I have been known to sing;
I’m Vivaldi concertos, first written for string;
And Manhattan’s fine restaurant, priced with a sting.

Who am I?

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

I’m instructions that lead to no end when complied;
Found on ties when they’re tying, and shoes when they’re tied;
To invert in a plane or amusement park ride;
And the circle of people that’s on the inside.

Who am I?

I’m in boxing and bowling and baseball in sport;
An offense that appears on indictments in court;
A refined European high nobleman sort;
And the number of threads that your bedsheets support.

Who am I?

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I’m a long West Coast highway; a palindrome prime;
I’m the room where you go for committing thought-crime;
The Dalmations of Disney; a back-to-work time;
And the course that’s an Intro before the steep climb.

Who am I?
