The heart? The heart can soar and your heart can cry metaphorically?
Great guess but not the answer.
Just thinking.. time flies but does it cry?
Tree, Leaves? Weeping Willow?
Cry can be weep or make a loud noise.
Time flies. The sky is crying (just as Stevie Ray Vaughn). Birds fly and cry but they have wings and eyes. Cry as in make water. Hmmm.
you are onto something here… Cry in this sense would be to make water ![]()
Am I… a cloud?
Ding ding ding – you would be correct! Hats off ![]()
Car Talk puzzler time again!
Late Night Tow
I used this one years ago, but it has been quite a while. So here we are again. It is so old, it is now considered new.
Many years ago, I received a late night phone call from my brother who tells me that his car has broken down.
He says, “I need help. Do you have a rope to tow with?”
And I say, “Yeah, sure, I’ll be right there.”
So after finishing my dinner and the movie I was watching, I decide to head out to give him a hand.
I arrived with my car, tow rope in hand, and he was asleep in the car, snuggled up with one of his pet raccoons.
I wake him and ask him what the story is.
He tells me what’s wrong with the car. I say, “I can’t tow you, you knucklehead.”
And he says, “No, we only have a few blocks to go. I can tow you.”
And after a moment I said, “Holy cow!” Because I realized he’s right. Even though he is broken down, and he’s the one that called me in the middle of the night.
And the puzzler is, what is going on here? What is wrong with his car?
Guess it wasn’t urgent ![]()
Were his breaks shot? ![]()
Wow, that was fast! Yes, the brother’s brakes had failed. The car with the failed brakes can tow the working car, and the working car can apply its brakes as needed to slow both cars!
Back to you, Jasmine. ![]()
I just want to snuggle up with a pet raccoon now. Is this actually a thing in the US!?
The Car Talk radio show that I stole this puzzler from was successful due to the hilarity of the brotherly banter between the two hosts. Insulting his older brother’s car and cleanliness and pets was part of Ray’s shtick with Tom.
Oh I see! It’s to give the impression of a hillbilly not that you guys actually have pet raccoons
Would you have another one? I am not prepared
We need a fun one to laugh with.
Q: Why did the golfer have to change his pants?
He got a hole in one?
You got it! Very quick!
What bird do you associate with lifting weight?
Crane? … … ..
