0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) I decided to read this quite literally splitting seams Plainglazed, I love the way your writing flows. Great riddle. OK! a really great answer. Hadnt thought of that but like the way it fits. Your decision to "read this quite literally" is a very good one. And thanks for the compliment.

0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) By the way, fabulous job on this riddle, PG!antidepressants Sorry, not it, but get your drift and not stupid. Will say the device is a physical object. And thanks, you're very kind. Edited June 26, 2009 by plainglazed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 sorry for the dumb guess...... rubber...? or cheese?...or even honey? Absolutely no apologies necessary. None of those are really close at all but, of the three, would have to say the last one mentioned is the closest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 no wait..... bee? or the letter B? nicknames...? no sorry, not either. my last response to you was regarding one of the qualities of the "closest" of your last three and my guess as to how that came to you from the riddle. always hesitant to say too much for fear that it might mislead. hope this is not the case.

0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Edit: or a different direction....and sorry if these have been guessed. imaginingreaping what you've sewn. Dont think these have been guessed so you can guess they're not it. Sorry please keep at it. Thanks to you I have let this one go. Have found renewed cofidence from really inciteful guesses. Still think this one's a little oblique but there's definitely one good answer y'all are going to get. Trying different definitions of some of the key words (nouns) like you did above and some others have, along with Tiger's literal approach may be helpful.

0 plainglazed Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 pollen...? the more I say, the more I mislead. Not taking that advice: When I said before that one of your three guesses was closest, it still had nothing to do with the answer. That guess just shares a quality that the answer does. Pollen is the same way but, ironically, a different quality of the answer I hoped to convey. So I think you're gettin some of the meaning of the answer, it just has nothing to do with honey or pollen. Thouroughly confused? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
