A. For the same reason we put cargo on ships and shippments on trucks.
B. For the same reason wound and wind are really 4 words.
I wound the wound with tape because to wind with tape will keep the dirt and wind out of the wound that has been wound.

Q.
What is red and white and black and red and white and black and moves faster and faster?

An ambulence that has been attacked by a giant squid. :P

No TAS it is a Nun that tripped on the top step and is rolling down the stairs

I find your angry tone to be rather rude and tactless. :roll:

What are you talking about Willis?

Something in bold type doesn't necessarily equal angry, I use bold to emphasize things. See? Smile

What has ears but can't hear?

What are you talking about, Willis? Laughing out loud Heh, better call Mr. Drummond, I don't know!

I don't find it to be rude at all... I actually think that was quite funny! :P

Okay, I got one : If an arcane archer were to lose his the string to his bow, why couldn't he just conjure an new string?

We actually call the thing you hold the cup with an "ear". It was possible that you folks did too. Smile

Correct!
You win... a Disney visit!

(There, the round eared one has visited your computer screen... :silly:).

I was gonna say a House Coat, but it seems not to be the answer.

Sharkull's picture

That would have worked (and so would a coat of paint...). Kathy just answered the one I was thinking of when making the post. Smile

Yay for me. Smile

So I guess in Sweden and Holland they call the handle of a cup an ear huh? Ok, that makes more sense to me now. :dunce:

What is bought by the yard and worn by the foot?

Templarian Arch Sorcerer's picture

Cloth to make the socks which are worn by the feet. :P

Sharkull's picture

Carpeting / flooring. Wink

Templarian Arch Sorcerer's picture

It runs as it will, but never does it walk. There is a mouth to see, but never does it talk. A bed it surely owns, but never does it sleep. Possesses it a head, but not a one that weeps. What is the answer? Cool

A River

Templarian Arch Sorcerer's picture

Very Good! :o

It brings back the lost as though never gone, shines laughter or tears, with light long since shone. A moment to make, a lifetime to shed, valued when, but lost when you are dead. What is the answer?

I make you weak at the worst of all times, but in the end I keep you safe. You'll sweat in my presense, even as you grow cold. I dwell with the weak, rarely the strong, but without me, who could tell the difference? What is the answer? :P

Those are tough ones. *goes off to think*

BTW Sharkull wins a prize for his answer of carpet. Arrow A new pet! :bug: His name is Ricky.

Sharkull's picture

They are indeed quite good... the second one took a bit longer for me to figure out. I'm thinking 1) a memory and 2) fear... :?:

Hey Ricky :bug: ...
Wait a minute... stop right there... stay away from the optical drive's laser... now don't chew on those ISA cables... Ack! Not the CPU! NOOooooooooooo...... *Ricky gets sucked up by a fan while crawlling on the CPU's heat sink, and his remains now decorate the insides of my PC case* Sad

Doh! poor Ricky... Ghost

I think you are right about memory and fear....TAS, are those correct?

Templarian Arch Sorcerer's picture

Magnificent! Cool

*awards sharkull with a giant tub of live tuna and goldfish to eat*

Sharkull's picture

Yummy! Smile

a) As long as I eat, I live, but when I drink, I die.
