Riddles...

I suppose you've got the rattler families, although they don't exactly 'sizzle'

 

They sizzle when you fry them. Although "like bacon" might be a bit of a stretch

 

Actually, they taste like chicken.

 

He's not joking. Although skinning them is a bitch.

 

*BURP* You made me hungry guys! *goes to eat some fried snake meat*

 

Although some snakes taste like a cross between chicken and pork, because of their diet.

Any more riddles? onder:

 

Has this one been answered?

 

Not yet.

But I will if you insist :razz:

 

Yes a snake, new one ask requested:

Though desert men once called me God,
To-day men call me mad,
For I wag my tail when I am angry,
And growl when I am glad.

 

A cat?

 

Cat it is, new:

Bound by age, comfort and zest,
The inquiring hand could not rest.
But given to her heart's desire,
She gave to us - our worst quagmires.
And so now we wallow in our grief,
And seeking to close the box we weep.
While famine, plague, and other woes,
Beset ourselves - and our foes.

 

Go on. Answer.

 

If I'm not mistaken, that's easy.

Pandora.

 

"There is not wind enough to twirl
That one red leaf, nearest of its clan,
Which dances as often as dance it can."

Answer: the Sun.

 

Your not mistaken, a new one:

What is it you have to answer?
But to answer you have to ask?
And to ask you have to speak?
And to speak you have to know,
The answer.

 

A rhetoric question?

 

Yes.

"Then all thy feculent majesty recalls
The nauseous mustiness of forsaken bowers,
The leprous nudity of deserted halls --
The positive nastiness of sullied flowers.
And I mark the colours, yellow and black,
That fresco thy lithe, dictatorial thighs."

 

It's not yet another 'bee' one is it?

Queen Bee, or maybe wasp.

 

No.

 

I am just posting here so that I can get rid of that annoying e-mail notification. Somehow that got turned on in my profile while I was away and I forgot to uncheck the box the last time I posted.
