Punny Monday #22
What word does this photo represent? EMAIL your answers and leave a comment designed to either help or confuse your fellow game players. This word can be used as a noun (thing) or a verb (action). Enjoy.
The first contestant to EMAIL me the right answer wins a featured link in my blog which will display until next Monday when we’ll play this little game again. Enjoy.
PLEASE, do not write your guess in the comments. It spoils the game for the other players. Your guesses will be shared when the game ends. Oh, and just because someone announces they’ve won, doesn’t mean that they have. Please keep guessing until I post the answers!

What WORD? Not noun, verb, etc.?!
Barbara H.’s last blog post..Children, dogs, and safety
Oops, I just saw that it could be a noun or a verb. I was used to seeing the part of speech at the beginning and skimmed past that. Sorry!
Barbara H.’s last blog post..Children, dogs, and safety
Ah — reading — an excellent strategy!
I should have stayed in bed. When I’m late their easy when I’m early they are impossible.
Dr. John’s last blog post..Agent 012 -Picture Story
I’m just the opposite — usually if I look at it first thing, the right answer just pops into my head. It
Not today, though!
Barbara H.’s last blog post..Children, dogs, and safety
Dr. John — blame Amoeba. I am innocent.
Gave a try.
bettygram’s last blog post..Raven challenge 67
You sure did — and it made me chuckle!
Well, I’ve stared at this one for over ten minutes now and nothing is coming. You beat me.
Anthony North’s last blog post..FEROCIOUS & MORE
Tony — it was Amoeba. I said, “I need a Punny Monday” idea, and he gave me this one.
Just ONE word? I don’t think I’m even close…
Melli’s last blog post..Krysti’s Europe – Mysterious Amsterdam!
Melli — are you recovering form the game yet?
Hm. Not sure but had a go anyway….
Thumbelina’s last blog post..Day One
And you won! Take a bow!
I am very , very lost!!!
🙁
Mar’s last blog post..here comes the sun
Sorry, perhaps another cup of coffee?
Wow…………………….this one is a doozie. Good job on stumping me!!!
Hope you are feeling much better and getting ready for travel . Love you xooxoxoXOOXOooxoxoxo
Caryl — you weren’t horribly stumped. Just a little off (which sort of seems normal).
Starting late and my brain is still sleeping apparently. I”m clueless. Totally clueless. Computer is giving me grief today (and yesterday) too. Sigh.
Raven’s last blog post..Shadow Shot Sunday
Sorry the comp is harassing you and your brain isn’t jump starting. Try again next week!
Inspiration!
Raven’s last blog post..Shadow Shot Sunday
And a correct answer! Good job!
Great way to start another fun Monday mornings…ummm let’s see it’s gotta be something abstract I would say
Thom’s last blog post..Musical Monday – What Moves You? and Monday Crazy Questions 8
Thom — it’s right there in front of you — a cover and a ring. What more do you want?
I have no clue, but am looking forward to the results :)!
Nicole’s last blog post..Stories in pictures
Nicole — you and most everybody else!
Um…ringplatepanlid…yeah..that’s gotta be it.
Noooo clue. More coffee please.
Can’t wait to see the answer!
Shelly’s last blog post..Winter / Summer
Shelly — you were over thinking it — the plate was just because the ring didn’t show well on the wooden table top.
Shelly, that’s about where I am, too. Coffee or cyanide.
Doug — wouldn’t that be coffee almondine?
i know I’m not first, but I think i actually got one right.
Nessa’s last blog post..Promised Pictures, Plus
Nessa — that you did!
I haven’t got a clue. We all have our gifts, and puns isn’t one of mine. LOL But I hope that you’re feeling better. 🙂
Cherie — I am feeling much better. Thanks for stopping by even though the game isn’t your specialty. I can’t dance!
waiting to find out the answer…
🙂
Mar’s last blog post..here comes the sun
Only seconds away.
Love it!!!!
Mar’s last blog post..here comes the sun
Mar — it’s always easy after the fact, isn’t it?
Congratulations to Thumbelina!
Barb — Thumbelina deserves congratulating. She has given me more wacky wild guesses in her time then anyone else, I think!
How the hell do you get cover out of a lid? Makes no sense to me at all. Congrats Thumbelina, Nessa and Raven. You are all as abstract as Quilly is
Thom’s last blog post..Musical Monday – What Moves You? and Monday Crazy Questions 8
Well this is a first for me to actually GET it never mind be first.
But I got it because a lid covers a pan. Simple as that. It covers. And is covering a ring. So cover-ring.
It’s only because I have been on holiday. Next week I’ll be my usual useless self! lol
Thumbelina’s last blog post..Day One
Thom — broaden your vocabulary. Learn a few synonyms. It will do you good.
Thom has me smiling!
In my neck of the woods a cover is a blanket or a quilt. 🙂
I’d have liked it better without the plate – that didn’t figure in as part of the equation at all.
There’s always next week Thom – we’ll do better (shaking head from side to side.)
Carletta’s last blog post..Mellow Yellow: Unfurling Gazania Daisy
Carletta — Thom says, “Have Amoeba pick them. His are always easier.” So I have Amoeba pick, and Thom is STILL whining.
ooops…I just now turned on the computer to check email. We were up late last night after the baseball game and I wanted to get as much done in the yard this morning as I could before it got hot. Hubby went to his parents for the daily hassle…that actually didn’t happen today. While he was gone I dug some ferns to move them to the back flowerbed and my glasses fell off. I remembered thinking I’ll get those in a minute right after I get this planted. By that time I’d forgotten. After I’ll looked everywhere with no luck, hubby got home and I tearfully told him what happened. We started looking and he found them almost as soon as we got to one of the three places I’d been working. That was such luck…I told him thank you so much.
I was trying to get the pun and was thinking something under glass…but really didn’t know.
amberstar’s last blog post..Underwater Cat
Well, it was under glass, but only so you could see through to the RING.
Damn, that was tricky!
Thank you.
Congrats to those who got this. I got as far a ‘covering dish’ but couldn’t make any sense of it. LOL
Louie Jerome’s last blog post..Give Your Readers Free Links When They Comment
We’ll play again next Monday, Louie, come on back by!
Woo hoo, I got one!
Nessa’s last blog post..Abstract Poetry
Nessa — I am not at all surprised.
Oh my GOODNESS – I didn’t! Did I?
Oh wow. First. That is a… FIRST!
Woo hoo!
Thumbelina’s last blog post..Day One
Congrats! I’ll have your link up in just a bit.
Oh, and I just checked. You won Punny Monday #7, too! Capsizing.
Did I?
Wow.
I’ll have to stop trying so hard. I’ll spoil my reputation. I’m hoping to be the wackiest wildest guesser ever!
Huh. Ruined that one now!
Thumbelina’s last blog post..Day One
clever, as usual. did my best to not blow it. otherwise, it might have been rosies around my toe-sies.
sauerkraut’s last blog post..Sarah Palin lies about David Letterman routine, updates
Yeah, giving away the answer is a sure way to get deleted — or worse. I am glad you enjoy this feature.
I’s so much fun to read this post and comments! Great Punny Monday, Quilly. It’s amazing how some things are actually much more simpler than we think they are. Have a wonderful day 🙂
