0 Guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 A Snake or serpent. I'd be surprised if there was a snake around 100 meters long ... I think the biggest max out around 10. If you need a hint though... There's a reason it's 100 meters, and not 99 or 103 or something close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dash... ...as a unit of measurement in cooking is between 1/16th and 1/8th of a teaspoon. ...as a in "a race", usually referred to as 100-meter dash. ...Mrs. Dash is a somewhat popular brand of cooking spice. ...as in a type of punctuation mark, it can connect two words together, or be used to indicate pause different than a hyphen.
