I must be missing something here, they say love is what it's all about. I admit to a guess, based on that premise: LOVE http://www.websmileys.com/sm/love/1273.gifQuote:

This is what its all about-If this is the bow that ties everything up, what are the shattered pieces?
What is it?
I think we are frustrating each other. LOL. The problem is, I can't say much more without just giving it away. And I'm lost on your riddle. If I was so close with Jesus??? Devine Power----?Quote:

1) When you break a mirror each piece has different looking sides
2) The pieces can go together and form the mirror(that is the answer) no matter how differently they looked before.
3) The pieces can be put together by the glue(that is the line)
Descending from the sky
Rising from the ground
Looking from the sky
Living underground
This is what it's all about-The Glue, that puts the shattered pieces together
What is it?
???-(The Mirror)
bleh... this really won't do much... but hopefully it helps.
For your riddle I've come up with these answers:
Wood
Steel
Mass
Wood St.
Sam Lee
or perhaps, to use the extra S
Wood
SteeL
MaSs
Sam Woods, Lee St.
Spirits or souls. If not angels, but close, and not Jesus, but in the right area, then spirits or souls. They come from above, they return above, they watch from above, they live in the underworld, and spirit is the word that ties them all together. :nod:Quote:

The paper scrap says:
WOOD
STEEL
MASS
The order of the words is important. Read aloud and carefully. http://www.websmileys.com/sm/happy/001.gif

Just can't think of a way to do it. I never realized this riddle would be so hard to figure out... 3 pages... wow. Thinking of the riddle in seperate parts helps here. Perhaps this might also help:
Mr. Blob was a creation from a scientific experiment. Basically he's just a blob of gel. If you cut him in half he'll seperate into many piece and many Mr.Blobs each with a different personality.
Mr.Blob=Riddle
Personality=Answer
Maybe that might clarify things... or perhaps gives away the answer... or perhaps make it harder to figure out... bleh... I don't know... ^^'
anyhow for your riddle... if the order of the words was important... why do you have a different order now than before? lol... before it was Wood, Steel, Mass. Now its Steel, Wood, Mass? well... anyhow... I've got no clue...
Because this dingbat messed up! The first is the correct order. I give up on your riddle. Here's the answer to mine.Quote:

The order of the words was what was important. Now watch a name and place appear from nowhere! Steel Underwood, Andover, Mass. Steel is indeed a first name, but sometimes has an extra e on the end. looking at a map of
Massachusetts, you'll find the town of Andover. Simple, really. :D ;) :lol: :nod:
New riddle.
The Locked Room by Jonathan Blade (STORY IS COMPLETE FICTION)
Clyde Burke stood in the shadowy hallway of the Horwitz mansion and dialed a number from memory. A singular voice whispered: “Report!”
“Burke here, Chief. I’m at the old Horwitz mansion out on Broadway. I had dropped in at headquarters per your instructions to see if Cardona had anything further on the Albright case. As he didn’t, I accepted his offer of a lift back to The Classic. On the way, we received a radio call about a murder/suicide at the Horwitz place. Joe answered personally, since we were only minutes away.
“Jerome Horwitz, the youngest brother met us at the door. He was visibly upset. “He finally did it! He murdered her, then himself!” The man was shaking like a leaf.
“Just then Samuel Horwitz, Jerome’s older brother called down from upstairs, asking if the police were there already. We ascended the stairs and into the death room. Mrs. Sonya Horwitz lay across the bed on her back, shot through the heart. Her husband, Moses Horwitz, the oldest brother, was face down on the floor, shot through the head, apparently by his own hand.
“When questioned, Samuel stated that it was the servants’ night off, but they had enjoyed dinner at a nearby nightclub. When they returned home, he and Jerome went into the library to play their nightly chess game and enjoy cigars and brandy. Mr. and Mrs. Horwitz retired to their room.
“Jerome took up the story. He claimed that loud arguing was heard coming from the bedroom. He admitted that his brother and sister-in-law often had ‘rows’. Then to the brothers’ horror two gunshots rang out. They leaped up, overturning the table, scattering chess pieces, and breaking their brandy glasses. They dashed to the door and found it locked from the inside. After pounding on the door fruitlessly, Jerome, who is strongly built, broke the door down. There were the bodies and the windows were locked from the inside. Samuel dashed to call the police, while Jerome checked for signs of life.
“Here Jerome broke in and weeping, stated that he couldn’t believe Sonya was dead as he could still smell her lavender perfume. This reminded Joe to ask about an odor coming from the dead man’s clothes. Samuel came forward, sniffed, and stated that it was a special tobacco the dead man had made for him by a tobacconist on 7th Avenue, because it was rather mild.”
There was silence on the line for a pregnant moment.
“Orders. Have Cardona hold Jerome and Samuel Horwitz on suspicion of murder of their brother and his wife!”
1.) WHAT HAS TIPPED THE SHADOW OFF?
2.) THE BROTHERS MENTIONED IN THIS STORY ARE WORLD FAMOUS. WHO ARE THEY? :D :D
Oh, so it was like a pun(bet you were tempted to using that as a hint, lol). Well anyhow, here's the answer to mine. Here's my explanation for my hints first though:Quote:

This is what it's all about-The Glue, that puts the shattered pieces together
What is it?
???-(The Mirror)
Now that I think about, the riddle can also be "The Mirror" and quite frankly I meant it to be the mirror. Anyhow... as I said in the hint, each shattered piece is different, but as number 2 said, related to each other. So this means that the little "riddles"(which are also the "shattered pieces") are different, and therefore talking about different things:
Descending from the sky-Angels
Rising from the ground-Spirit/Demon
Looking from the sky-God/s/esses
Living underground-Living in Hell/Hade's Underworld
This is what it's all about-Saying that the answer is about all of what is said above
What is it?
What has to do about Angels, Spirits, Demons, God, Gods, Godesses, Hell and the Underworld?
Religion
That is the answer. Still, this riddles missing stuff so fire, angels, etc. still works... which is why I wish to modify it. So...
Looking at a sentence from here:Quote:

Out of that sentence, the answer was the area. Just felt like saying that... don't ask why. Well actually I wanted to make a hint from that, but couldn't... so self-satisfaction I guess... lol
Complicated... even though with research, the brothers are the "Three Stooges".
My New Riddle:
The first thing you should see when you open your eyes.
Better noticed under water
and never under land.
Never dark,
never bright.
You see it everywhere when you open your eyes.
Your seeing it right now
even though you may not realize.
Eye-catching it makes things
and astounding it can be.
So much it can do
so often it's ignored.
Better noticed under water
never noticed under land
The first thing you should see when you open your eyes.
What is it?
Ah, research... Isn't the Internet a wonderful thing? Yes, the brothers Horwitz are really Moe Howard, Shemp Howard, and Jerry "Curly" Howard of The Three Stooges. The names in my story are the names they were born with.Quote:

It makes thing's eye-catching because of the fact that it can trick your eyes to see mirages, rainbows, etc. Basically it was more about sight rather than requirement, I thought I could trick people because when I told people this one and, "You can't see air" yeah well :P Fish can't see water. Might as well edit this one though. Anyhow just thought up two on my way home from the bus...:
I can be a house
I can be a swan
I can be a lot of things
but one thing I shall only be,
two purposes I shall always have,
and two actions I shall always do.
What am I?
I look out the window
with my hand under my head.
Then my little brother comes with a frowning face
and so, as if knowing what he wants,
I give him the toy he wants most.
What am I?
:cool:
I'm probably wrong... but perhaps because Samuel called the police to come and Jerome stayed inside the death room. The police were only minutes away though and yet they met Jerome at the door(when he's suppose to be in the death room) and Samuel descended the stairs as if coming from the death room.
You are correct in thinking that you are wrong. A hint though. Follow your nose. ;)Quote:
