Well, that was the cliche, I was referring to the whole event. But you've obviously got it. Ding.

Today's carry-over riddleku is

eight points in two rows
snugly fit to make a house
outnumber humans

Clue: they hurt your feet.

Underwater flight
Tuxedos on white carpet
Ave, Caesar!

Tight, red and shiny
creeping in the city night
spurting sticky goo

Eight thirty-four one
five fifty-five two thirteen
three one twenty-one

An eye in the sky
Irish eyes with bleeding hearts
textual ditto

Your calves, your bones grow
Grain now found on top of grain
Keep cool, or go off

A pair of boots made out of top grain? :confused:

All talk and word play.

Ding! I was hoping for something dirtier.

Today's carry-over riddlekus are

eight points in two rows
snugly fit to make a house
outnumber humans

Clue: they hurt your feet.
Clue: we're going to have an argument about whether it is a countable or uncountable noun.


Eight thirty-four one
five fifty-five two thirteen
three one twenty-one

Clue: was the Da Vinci Code that long ago?


An eye in the sky
Irish eyes with bleeding hearts
textual ditto

Clue: They are led by the good, in Latin.

Calves ... legs, or baby cows?

Grain on top of grain remins me of a sesame seed bun, but we've had that.

Or could the second grain be a wooden cutting board, counter top or some such? Bread/dough on a breadboard?

Keep cool, or go off: sounds like some kind of food which must be kept in the fridge, but bread doesn't. Hmm.

Errm [wild stab] ... steak sandwich?

Undertoad 09-18-2011 10:22 PM
