hugemonkey Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 This is a variation on the earlier Rhyme Time puzzles created by Brandonb. This time each clue has (at least) two answers. The spelling of the rhyming words can be different but they should have the same number of syllables (and of course rhyme). Example: watery flyer = wet jet / rain plane 1. monkey band 2. superlative dog 3. unemployed tunneler 4. upright support spirit 5. invertebrate virus 6. unsuccessful alcohol 7. dirty finger 8. reduce friction on pipe loop 9. computer covered in thick oil 10. untrue pastry 11. conceited storm 12. beast follicles 13. clown’s irons 14. lower maw 15. avian utterance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
