[HPforGrownups] definition of riddle

[Miller, Gina (JIS)]

I was going thru a garden catalog yesterday and saw a large sieve which 
was called a riddle.  So I thought that was intriguing.  Pen-sieve/riddle.

Here's another definition of riddle

  (from Old English roedel, from roedan meaning "to give council" or "to 
read"): A universal form of literature in which a puzzling question or a 
conundrum is presented to the reader. The reader is often challenged to 
solve this enigma, which requires ingenuity in discovering the hidden 
meaning. A riddle may involve puns, symbolism, or unusual imagery.

I leave this to more imaginative thinkers today.

Gina - who is way to impatient for the 6th book! :-)
