Hi Kids! You're one step closer to finding surf boy AND the lost treasure, so keep your minds limber. At the end of this rainbow you'll discover a leprechaun named Skippy. If you can answer his riddle, he'll tell you where the treasure has been taken to. But be warned, he is as cunning as he is foul-mouthed.

I love a good riddle.

Well, I love posing a good riddle, as I'm no good at solving them.

Anywho, I think we're all ears. (which makes it tough to type)

Think of words that end in -gry. Hungry and angry are two of them, but there are THREE words in the common tounge. What's the THIRD word? You use it every day and if you heard me right, I've told you the answer already. Wrap your little minds around that.

Leave Skippy alone! Can't you see he's well past his prime? Answer the riddle and let him move on.

Actually, all this talk of rainbows just gets me thinking of gay and lesbians having parades and their striving for `equal rights' and waving rainbow flags and stuff, what can I say? I'm AM Canadian. :D

good riddle. I've got some (two) ideas as to the answer, and since it seems the answer isn't 'there is no answer', that narrows it down to one.

I heard the answer is language.

I think in this case the answer is "tounge (sic)."

I'm inclined to think the same, if only on the basis that typos are very rare in abs posts.. ... makes me wonder why it's there.
