Thursday Morning Riddle

Thursday, February 23rd, 2017

I’m a basketball game where you’re calling your shot;
I’m worth something in trade and — to Richard — a lot;
I’m the measure of power your vehicle’s got;
And equipment for vaults, fit with handles or not.

Who am I?

I’m an old-time screen icon who carries it still;
I’m bestowing the property left in your will;
The Commander-in-Chief on the half-Franklin bill;
And conceding a point, or a wish to fulfill.

Who am I?

I’m a desktop device, but may not be a Mac;
To sequester a prisoner safe from the pack;
When you choose careful words so as not to attack;
And a reason to search so arrests don’t come back.

Who am I?

When the boss is away, I’m the second who subs;
A bad habit or weakness, like drinking in pubs;
I can clamp down your axles, go work on your hubs;
And the Miami squad that boasts Crockett and Tubbs.

Who am I?

I’m to make dirty money you’ll probably wash;
I’m put over your shoes like a snow-day galosh;
The loud clamorous noise you might hear at a mosh;
And the hand-held equipment for tennis or squash.

Who am I?

I’m the coral pink tissue your teeth poke out through;
I’m a rubber adhesive: a postage stamp glue;
I’m to clog up the works; a detective’s wet shoe;
And by golly, by gee; I’m a stick that you chew.

Who am I?

I can process a product, or generate power;
I blend in the crowd, but I’m paid by the hour;
I’m placing fake evidence, crops, or a flower;
And Led Zeppelin’s frontman, his fans would devour.

Who am I?

I’m some notes played in jazz; I’m a taste of a sweet;
I’m the crackle of flames; I’m to savagely beat;
An ephemeral stream; to completely defeat;
And a small block of salt that your cattle might eat.

Who am I?

I’m a fixture in bathrooms with faucet and bin;
Set your teeth in a task; let ideas settle in;
To succumb to depression; descend into sin;
And to take out a sub for a Battleship win!

Who am I?

I’m a lingerie line for those younger in age;
I’m a feline in movies; Ms. Moore on the stage;
I’m a sweet lemonade; I put Drive on the page;
And at work, I’m a slip that can threaten your wage.

Who am I?
