0 Guest Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Donald, came into town, lean and wiry Music, flew from his pipes, wild and fiery With pack on his pack, and eyes wild with ecstasy Some called him the devil, that Donald McGillavry! Awesome song by an (I'll try my best to describe it) Irish/Celtic/Medieval/Renaissance melody band called the Empty Hats For some reason I thought of it after reading this riddle. Anyway... I'm trying to find out why an architect would be inking the designs to a ship... one thing I've come up with is a Las Vegas casino with a pirate theme that has a building in the shape of a ship? Of course, that would be a phony ship, but maybe the architect's just trying to make it seem not phony. Also, statues, gargoyles with wings, snowglobes, and building and setting off a new cruise ship. Maybe an aircraft carrier? (yes, I know "ship" can refer to planes and not just boats, but that architect thing... architects make buildings, structures, not airplanes!)

0 hugemonkey Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Thanks guys. That means a lot coming from you. An Architect (Frank Lloyd Wright) inked (write) the upward (as in "right a boat") side (one side as opposed to left), to build a ship (shipwright) that isn't phony (right). The die-hard wing (right wing) first flew with pride (Wilbur and Orville), and made the play (playwright) or ceremony (rite) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
