Guest Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 A question of the reason for it. Huh in Canada, that will fit! A group of us, what it’s about. You need a nap, but go out. 1,2, or 3 & take away the end. Sleeping reversed, now begin. Solve the riddle, yes figure it out. The answer’s an anagram, no doubt. First the answer, then unscramble. Two answers needed, I won’t ramble. __________________________________ This is my first real go at a play on words. I would love any and all feedback from everyone who has an opinion! Enjoy.

0 plainglazed Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 You know I like these and have been studying this one for a while now. I really think this could be a good one. It may be a little extra difficult without knowing how many letters since it does not appear we will be constructing a word that is recognizable (since it is an anagram). Could be totally wrong about the constructing and recognizing and the rest for that matter. Going to throw out some incomplete thoughts out there for group cheating.

0 Guest Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Might as well guess "we" and "our" for the third. Fourth: pout? Coffee? Fifth: 1,2,3 refer to counting rather than number? Perhaps number symbol # which is also pound symbol (I think)? Is the fact that you used & rather than "and" significant? Sixth: g? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
Guest
A question of the reason for it.
Huh in Canada, that will fit!
A group of us, what it’s about.
You need a nap, but go out.
1,2, or 3 & take away the end.
Sleeping reversed, now begin.
Solve the riddle, yes figure it out.
The answer’s an anagram, no doubt.
First the answer, then unscramble.
Two answers needed, I won’t ramble.
