Riddle me this!

[oldkicker]

Since this marks the beginning of oldkicker's very busy week, I thought I'd give you a puzzle that might take y'all a while! I'll catch up with you a little later today!

Gina passed along this chestnut (thanks, Gina!)....

Example: 12 = M_ _ _ _ _ IN A Y _ _ _
Answer: 12 = MONTHS IN A YEAR

26 = L_ _ _ _ _ _ IN THE A_ _ _ _ _ _ _
7 = W_ _ _ _ _ _ OF THE W_ _ _ _
1001 = A_ _ _ _ _ _ N_ _ _ _ _
12 = S_ _ _ _ OF THE Z_ _ _ _ _
54 = C_ _ _ _ IN A D_ _ _
9 = P_ _ _ _ _ _ IN THE S_ _ _ _ S_ _ _ _ _
88 = P_ _ _ _ K_ _ _
13 = S_ _ _ _ _ _ ON THE A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ F_ _ _
32 = D_ _ _ _ _ _ F_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ AT W_ _ _ _ W_ _ _ _ F_ _ _ _ _ _
18 = H_ _ _ _ ON A G_ _ _ C_ _ _ _ _
90 = D_ _ _ _ _ _ IN A R_ _ _ _ T_ _ _ _ _ _E
200 = D_ _ _ _ _ _ FOR P_ _ _ _ _ _ G_ IN M_ _ _ _ _ _ _
8 = S_ _ _ _ ON A S_ _ _ S_ _ _
4 = Q_ _ _ _ _ IN A G_ _ _ _ _
24 = H_ _ _ _ IN A D_ _
1 = W_ _ _ _ ON A U_ _ _ _ _ _ _
5 = D_ _ _ _ _ IN A Z_ _ C_ _ _
57 = H_ _ _ _ V_ _ _ _ _ _
11 = P_ _ _ _ _ _ ON AN A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ F_ _ _ _ _ _ _ T_ _ _
1000 = W_ _ _ _ T_ _ _ A P_ _ _ _ _ _ IS W_ _ _ _
29 = D_ _ _ IN A L_ _ _ Y_ _ _
64 = S_ _ _ _ _ _ ON A C_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
3 = B_ _ _ _ M_ _ _ (S_ _ H_ _ T_ _ _ R_ _)
101 = D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
9 = I_ _ _ _ _ _ IN A B_ _ _ G_ _ _
66 = B_ _ _ _ IN THE B_ _ _ _
40 = N_ _ _ S_ _ _ _ _ F_ _ _ _ D_ _ _ A_ _ F_ _ _ _ N_ _ _ _ _
360 = D_ _ _ _ _ _ IN A C_ _ _ _ _
50 = S_ _ _ _ _ IN THE U_ _ _ _
20,000 = L_ _ _ _ _ _ U_ _ _ _ THE S_ _
1760 = Y_ _ _ _ IN A M_ _ _

Friday's:

I make you weak at the worst of all times. I keep you safe, I keep you fine. I make your hands sweat, and your heart grow cold, I visit the weak, but seldom the bold. What am I?
FEAR

LPP for Friday's go to BREEZY!

Who'd like to join me in a little gazing out at the waters at The Mango Inn in Lake Worth, Florida.?



Be sure and bring one of those Mango Margaritas!

 

[paras4ri]

Hey....could it be I'm first to say good morning???

 

[dianeschlicht]

LOL! Looks like a good one, Bernie! I can tell I will be at this a while! It might be tonight before I get around to it though, since I have a very busy day ahead too. We have electrical and building inspectors both coming this morning, and we still have to "pig tail" the boxes before the electrical inspector comes about noon.

Funny story--- We had 7 inches of snow Saturday morning. Guess when the guy came to "inspect" the driveway!!!

 

[gina2000]

CRIMINY! DO YOU KEEP EVERYTHING????

This thing has to be a year old!


Oh, man.....I'd better git while the gittin' is good!

 

[oldkicker]

'Morning, Gail!

Looks like a sleepy riddle bunch this morning!

Gina - Yep, I am a packrat! No doubt!

LOL, Diane - nice timing!

GOOD MORNING ALL!

 

[dianeschlicht]

Where you "gittin" to, Gina?

 

[gina2000]

I like the area WATER ACTIVITIES....

THE B-LOVE FLEET

THE RAMBLING ROSE RIVER BOAT

(Think this is where Jerry Garcia is hiding out????)

 

[gina2000]

I be gittin' under cover for when the rotten tomatoes start flyin'!

 

[oldkicker]

Hey Diane!!!

<center>CONGRATULATIONS ON 9,000 POSTS!!!
</center>

 

[dianeschlicht]

LOL! I don't think I am even going to attempt this until I go to get my allergy shots this morning! I printed it out so I can work on it while I wait the half hour after the shots.

 

[gina2000]

Actually, guys.....this is a really fun puzzle. My sister sent it to me one slow afternoon and had me pouring over it for hours. Of course, being the nice person I am, and knowing exactly who to torture with it.....I sent it to Bernie as soon as I got it (and a few of the answers!).

 

[gina2000]

9,000 POSTS~~!!!!

Congratulations!


And I thought I talked alot!!!! LOL LOL LOL


Keep 'em comin', Diane.......

 

[dianeschlicht]

Thanks, Bern!

I just glanced through it, and the only one that jumped out right away was the first one after the sample!

 

[paras4ri]

Congrats Diane on 9000 posts!!!! That is funny about the driveway....especially after you've had so little snow this year.

This is a good one Gina. I've seen it before but I don't remember all the answers. I printed it too!

Bernie - no fair this is your busy week.....it's the Big East Tournament!!!!!! At least your Orangemen have a bye in the first round.

 

[dianeschlicht]

I think any water we might gaze at around the Mango Inn this week, might be falling from the sky! It sounds like it has been raining for a week in Florida!

I have been tracking the weather trying to decide if we want to go to WDW in February/March instead of January so I can combine it with a trip to spring training!

 

[dianeschlicht]

I am still hoping for spring! We had temps in the -8 to -13 range all weekend with windchills in the -20 to -30 range!! It is supposed to warm up to freezing by Thursday, and Friday is supposed to be near 50!

 

[dianeschlicht]

LOL, I feel like I am talking to myself here on the riddle this morning!

 

[oldkicker]

John!
