Guest Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 I started out in Egypt, In England I was tried. Though two ends I do have, they are not alike. One end to leave behind, my other wants to strike. Much softer on the inside, than my outside ever liked. If it were much harder, The longer I would last. Cross the line I've laid, I'll remove it pretty fast. A small little hint, so you do not fail. The origin of my name, It means "Little tail".

No not banana, I look at it this way "If it's a one guesser I wrote it really well" I like to think of it that way instead of I really suck at writing.

0 dyalDragon Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 I figured it out before my first post, but it wasn't my first thought... Banana was my first thought as I was reading the first part, then had a good laugh with the last line After that I reread and had a moment when I got to the eraser bit... That's my usual process, but I thought I would post my thoughts in order to see what happened Cool riddle BTW hammie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
