Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, May 31st, 2018

I’m the code to launch missions; the start of a race;

I’m for clothing to match; and to move to a place.

Who am I?

Where words are scarce, they are seldom spent in vain,

McCain wants an honorable funeral, with Presidents Bush and Obama there to keynote.

Yet, gee, he did not invite ferret Trump, whether or not he has any grief.

Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, May 3rd, 2018

I’m a book when assembled with cover and glue;
To be tied to what contracts compel you to do;
I am moving by leaps; the Wachowskis’ debut;
And the limit where functions cannot venture to.

Who am I?
