Okay, the thing is you post a riddle (it can be one from a book or movie or just one you make up), and someone has to solve that riddle. If a person gets it right, then that person gets to put up the next riddle.

Got it?

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Got it, you gunna post the first riddle, or shall I?


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

At the moment, I can't think of anything, so you can go, Christa.


♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Thinking, thinking...c'mon Christa...I'm waiting to guess it!!!! lol ;)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Okey okey. Here is one my sister and I came up with years ago.

Fearsome legend,
Lighter than beans.
In a rainbow of colors,
It beats it's wing.


♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Ummm, first of all, how many guesses can we have?
I pick fairies for my first one. ;)


message 7: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Nope not fairy's :D you get to guess until you get it. I will give hints if I think you won't get it anytime soon though to keep it fair.


♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Ok...a hint then...I'm empty. :)


message 9: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments We were next to water when we thought it up.


message 10: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Bubbles?


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

Haley Dragonfly?


message 14: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments OH my goodness Haley got it! It is a Dragon fly! Good job. I was sure I would have to give more hints.


message 15: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Huh. I never would've thought of that. Good one Christa...and good job Haley! :)


message 16: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Now the hard part, Haley has to post a riddle :D


message 17: by Haley (new)

Haley I know. I'm working on finding one :) I wrote one sophomore year, I just have to remember where it is


message 18: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments LOL take a little time :D


message 19: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Just a little...;)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Me too...:D (in case you didn't notice, that is an evil grin)


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Better come back soon, Haley, or one of these sharks here will take your place! ;)


message 23: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments I think she is at work today, I'll give her another two hours.


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

Good idea. ;) I know many times she's busy a lot.


message 25: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Yep, I have no idea how she does all she does. Haley I am thinking of changing your title to "Bewilderer of Christa" :D


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

Hahaha. ;)


message 27: by Haley (new)

Haley Sweet! I made it in the two hour time frame! Sorry, Christa's right, I had to work at three and then I went straight to my brother's choir concert and I just got home. Let me go get caught up on some of the discussions and then I'll come right back! Sorry this is taking to long! Nut I'm glad to know I'm bewildering you all, mwahahaha!


message 28: by Haley (new)

Haley Okay. I can't find the one I made up, so this isn't original, sorry, I don't know if it has to be...

When asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, a little boy told his parents: "I want to capture people and blow them up!"
What did he want to be?


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

Criminal?


message 30: by Haley (new)

Haley Wow, Yeltnuh got it! Nice job! It took me forever to guess when I first heard it


message 31: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) I was thinking the same thing...but I saw someone else had beat me to it. Good job Yeltnuh! :)


message 32: by [deleted user] (new)

It's your turn, Yeltnuh. ;)


message 33: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Hahaha I would have guess a terrorist.

Okay I give Yeltnuh two hours (since it has already been 20) to put up a riddle before I assert my modliness and take her turn.

(I did warn you I do that :D)


message 34: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) What about us other Mods? Can't we do that too??? ;)


message 35: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Hm....I suppose so. But this is the only way I ever get a turn :D

But you have to be sure to give them a two hour warning.


message 36: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Yeah...ok....is the two hours up yet...:D


message 37: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Yes it is and for this time at least I will assert my modliness.

(Yeltnuh when you come back on you can have your turn.)

Man I can't use any from the Hobbit or Tabi will get it right away. So here is a new-ish one.

Black as midnight with no end
Stately soars Poe's friend.


message 38: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Raven.


message 39: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Cheater.


message 40: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Hey...it was kinda easy, considering the new movie coming out. And besides, one of Poe's poems is about a raven.


message 41: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah, I've read that poem.


message 42: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments Fine fine, insult my genius.

Your turn.


message 43: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Hmmmm, ok. Here's one I made up quite a while ago.
Light as a feather,
Stronger than steel
Sharper than a razor,
Glitters like ice.


message 44: by Kortni (new)

Kortni | 163 comments Water?


message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

I don't know...fairy dust?


message 46: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) Yeltnuh...you're a genius! You got it, it's a diamond. Good job!
Your turn. :)


message 47: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments That doesn't rhyme *sticks tongue out*


message 48: by ♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (new)

♠ TABI⁷ ♠ (tabi_card) So? Kept you guessing...lol. ;P


message 49: by Christa VG (new)

Christa VG (christa-ronpaul2012) | 3184 comments I am sorry Yeltnuh I am taking your turn again. When you come back you can have it.

"The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it?"-

Guess that if you can!
