And here they are...

  1. Walk on the living, they don't even mumble. Walk on the dead, they mutter and grumble.
  2. I am on three legs when I rest and one when I work.
  3. I am used to bat with, yet I never get a hit. I am near a ball, yet it is never thrown.
  4. I can be short and sometimes hot. When displayed, I rarely impress.
  5. I don't have eyes, but once I did see. Once I had thoughts, but now I'm white and empty.
  6. Buckets, barrels, baskets, cans. What must you fill with empty hands?
  7. I am sometimes strong and sometimes weak, but I am nobody's fool. For there is no language that I can't speak, though I never went to school.
  8. You throw away the outside and cook the inside. Then you eat the outside and throw away the inside.
  9. You use a knife to slice my head and weep beside me when I am dead.
  10. I went into the woods and got it. I sat down to seek it. I brought it home with me because I couldn't find it.

Good Luck, and send your answers directly to gamgee@theonering.net.
