0 plainglazed Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 but i think i am wrong........ answering a riddle?... Yes, afraid you're wrong. Never wrong to try tho. Please keep at it. Fantastic riddle, as always Plainglazed. Good to see you out here in the Den. medication Your answer is a good one, in that I certainly see where you're coming from, but not my answer. Thanks for the welcome but fear the compliment may be premature. Hopefully the den proves me wrong as it so often does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) I like both your answers, neither are crazy, seriously. Just not what I had in mind. Well, what did you have in mind Edit: a phone. or more precisely - a flip phone. Edited June 25, 2009 by MrsP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plainglazed Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Well, what did you have in mind Edit: a phone. or more precisely - a flip phone. Again not it. All these great guesses make me worry I've left this too broad. Suspect your advice would be to let it go a little longer before adding lines or hints. That may test my patience though. (no hints in that long winded response) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Yes, you know me so well. Fantastic riddle, I'm sure it's not too broad - you're great. Let it be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 this is difficult It was meant to be. Some wording has common meaning meant to throw you off. There should be enough there to reveal the answer. getting old. or old people. Definitely a different direction. Always like to encourage those. This time it did not pay off.

0 plainglazed Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 a loading computer? you are right about the device being a physical thing vs the common idiom *left to your own devices* so you were not tricked. lotion/glue...I know. Stretching. Just trying. Maybe I will spark the right idea into someone else's brain. this different direction is better. dont know why and not really relevent to the answer but in the right flavor. I hope that makes more sense than it misleads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) recession My brain is having problems with the lack of punctuation on this one! Hey tiger, not the answer and sorry about the lacking punctuation. Would say you could put a comma at the end of each long (odd) line and a period at the end of each short indented line. So there are really just five lines. The very last line is not really a clue. Maybe then will read a little better.
