I’m the rain that keeps home the most brazen parader;
On a car or a plane, I’m a wind-speed degrader;
I’m the Niners in football; in polling, Ralph Nader;
And I leak it that Luke is the son of Darth Vader.
Who am I?

Spoiler?

SPOILER is correct! Congratulations, Ro!
The meter for this week’s riddle had a weak ending – an extra unstressed syllable at the end of each line – kind of a “spoiler” for the rhythm.
That’s not why I did it, though. I just really wanted to rhyme Ralph Nader with Darth Vader. It was fun. You should all try it sometime.
A new riddle will be posted next Thursday morning. In the meantime, feel free to enjoy the rest of the blog.
