I only knew the answer to #4, so I'm sad but I'm glad anon posted most of the answers. Saves me a trip to Google.

no, I'm not eating laffy taffy again. I looked these up on the internet . . . there are a lot of stupid riddles out there.

Nobody knows number 3?

Jon said...

I'm going with a mailbox for number 3. I don't care if you say I'm wrong, because I still think it works! Now I'm going to go look it up...

Jon said...

Ok, results were a little muddy, but it appears as though I am a genius of some sort. I promise I didn't cheat. Of course, some people out there seem to think you could be a postman as well, but I happen to think a postman dies a little bit on the inside every time you take one of his letters, thus he does not remain unchanged.

It just came to me that #3 was probably a mailman, but I see Jon beat me to it...

Is #3 a mailman?

Madelyn said...

Good job everyone . . . well mostly anon 1, but still . . . good job.

I don't really understand how you play peppers though, are they also a musical instrument?

Pepper is some kind of warm-up game for baseball.

Jon said...

I know there's a warm-up game in baseball called pepper. I was confused about the spraying part, but then I remember pepper spray and I was like, "Oh, now I get it."

Jon said...
