To Wild Ginger Brewing
In my mind something's stirring
Just give me a chance to give something back
Might not be a riddle but you will see
Will be much about this thread so please don't flee
Case you're wondering what I'm talking about
I have a good idea and pondering no doubt
Okay here I keep trying to rhyme line after line
Got to stop and get working it will take some time.
Hope I don't let you guys down
I sure as hell don't want to be run out of town.

‘Twas one quite evening here on Home Brew Talk all around
Even Revvy was silent; Irish porn star twins might be in town
Not a whole lot was stirring some were out of their house.
While computers were waiting the slight touch of their mouse

Yooper in her ‘kerchief, and Bob in his cap,
Had just drunk a homebrew and were taking a nap
TxBrew Der Moderator was messing around
With network stuff it’s to a life he is bound

Our children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While our visions wrestled with something else instead.

When upon my computer screen there came a mad hatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
To my favorite computer chair I flew like a flash,
Hit the mouse slowly like conversions happen in mash

The heft of my wife’s breasts seen in the monitor’s soft glow
Gave luster to buster get back to bed don’t you know...
When what to my wondering eyes should appear,
A thread, “Anybody up for a Riddle” posted here.

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be a trick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

Now LabRatBrewer, lschiavo, and Emjay!
You all know we just come here to play
On WildGingerBrewing, On Passedpawn, On Clifton!
Don’t know about you but I’m doing some sipp’n
TyTanium, Bottlebomber, The Bird, and Mr Jgln!
GilaMinumBeer and HawksBrewer what song are we sing’n

To all of the many great people who post here
With a thankful heart I give you a cheer
But my crappy words and sappy lines
Is not why you come here answering rhymes

So with all that said my promise not yet kept
Believe it or not this takes all of my depth
Still stalling for time feel like a wall ahead
Should just start thinking or maybe drinking instead.

… To be continued (when my brain starts to work again)
 
Dan has inspired once again
Me to attempt a riddle gem
Your poem above is wonderfully written
I must admit I'm a little smitten
So now without further adieu
I will attempt to amuse all of you

There were two Presidents, 22nd and 24th
That have the same parents, probably from the north
If you are a histroy buff, this answer will come with ease
But don't spoil it for the rest, this one is the bee's knees
So how is this possible? I must ask you all
This one is fun, let's have a ball!
 
To clear any confusion i may have caused
The riddle is about the presidents. Pause.
They are not siblings, yet they both have
The same parents. Lets all have a laugh.

Ohio team to score the most goals?
I just dropped the browns of at the super bowl!
I am from texas though dont you know
The champion, you see, will be named Romo
If its college you seek then lets have a nooner
The winner's OU, lets go, Boomer Sooner!
 
One president's career is most worthy of note
For his failure to capture a reinaugural vote
Though he didn't do much in office is true,
Grover Cleveland was both 24 & 22.
 
I once went to China (this story is true),
I wanted some ping pong (and Tsingtau too)

The attendant denied my entrance quite quickly.
and wrote this explanation on a notepad for me.

So tell me my friends, and please use some tact,
what thing was that chinaman saying I lacked?
 
Leftcontact you are correct
And your rhyming was nice, this is a fact
I found that riddle to be quite informative
History was never my top perogative

And to passedpawn i must write a note
The answer is simple for a smart bloke
But alas i will give someone else a chance
To answer your rhyme, maybe someone named lance

And since i am sitting in the stonebriar mall
I must bid farewell to one and all!
 
To passed pawn I say en passant
This one took a good deal of thought
Though I know why you were rebuffed by this chink (sorry, it rhymed)
Alas at riddles I'm a worse source than sink
So though this answer I'll have to let go
I'll note You seem to have more issues than BYO.
 
Going to China,
They'll always dismiss you.
Especially without
your Ten Issues.

If you toss me from the window,
I will leave a crying wife.
Bring me back, but in the door, and
You'll see one giving life!

You suck.
You're riddles are tough.
I've thought and I've thought.
I've now had enough.

I posted a few that were without rhyme.
I'm punishing myself right now with a bud lime. (not really)
 
I got the answer to the crying wife
but the second half almost took my life
I couldn't get the answer iN the door
but then I saw it, and it gave some more

I always liked how you answer a riddle with a puzzle.
You never say it outright.
It's just a nudge with your muzzle.
If we were both gay, I bet we could snuggle.

***I'm not but I'd have a few beers with you***
 
Hey Ischavio good to see you too
I'm just sitting here sippin a brew
Been following some of these rhymes tonight
PassedPawn's are ones that get me uptight
What a brain on that man and LabRatBrewer too
And as far as that goes I give Ischavio his due
Right now working on LRBs simple riddle
I've answered it before but it's now hard as a fiddle
To play.. I just got to say.
Glad you're back from wherever you were at
Time now to put our minds up to task
 
Here's popcornd in your eyes?
That's not right, it must be my stye
Where does that lousy "6" come in
Ischavio are you drinking gin?
 
Okay, I'm sure RLB got this one again
With his answer in some riddle, to this there is no end. :mug:
 
Any drunken idiot would get that one (except Dan...popcorn sheesh;)
And it was only posted for fun.
Now I'm out of beer and hence out of here.
If I see you guys coming I'll run.
 
Thanks man... your hint is clear as mud in my eyes
Heres to your hint now man give me a glint. :mug:
