ok i have a few for you guys then. 1. You look at me, I look back, your right hand raises, I my left. You speak, but I in vain. 2.Long neck, no hands, 100 legs, cannot stand. Born of a forest nest, Against a wall I rest. 3.First burnt and beaten, drowned and pierced with nails, then stepped on by long-faced animals. 1. I’ve no eyes, bout once did see, thoughts had I, but now I’m white, and empty. 2. I´m a Fire´s Friend, My Body Swells With Wind. With My Nose I Blow, How The Embers Glow. 6 What English word retains the same pronunciation, even after you take away four of its five letters? 7 Take away the whole and some still remains. What is it? 1. When is it bad luck to meet a white cat? ---
