Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, February 8th, 2007

I’m a nymph who once loved from afar, from afar;
I’m a Soviet sub, or a car, or a car;
Where Tom Petty is heard on guitar, on guitar;
And I notify bats where you are, where you are.

Who am I?

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, February 1st, 2007

I’m the rain that keeps home the most brazen parader;
On a car or a plane, I’m a wind-speed degrader;
I’m the Niners in football; in polling, Ralph Nader;
And I leak it that Luke is the son of Darth Vader.

Who am I?

I’m the green on the table where wagers are made;
I’m the tip of a pen; or how fingers surveyed;
How emotions are held when not merely displayed;
And it’s true, all the president’s men I betrayed!

Who am I?

In a sport, I’m offensive; in love, I’m much worse;
I’m a blessing in flight; in the ocean, a curse;
I keep straight in the pool hall; I’m gay when inverse;
And in musical groups, I need hardly rehearse.

Who am I?

Thursday, January 11th, 2007

I might pass through your memory when I’m around;
Transitively a verb, but more properly noun’d;
I have seen all the sights and I know where they’re found;
And I share with a number the way that I sound.

Who am I?
