Punny Monday #32
What proper noun does this photo represent? EMAIL your answers and leave a comment designed to either help or confuse your fellow game players.
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!

This was from Amoeba, guys, don’t blame me!
Ha! I thought I was going to miss all the fun because I am about to leave to go downtown for the day, good thing you posted early BUT I am absolutely lost…I will be thinking about it in the train to Barcelona (35 min.)…
.-= Mar´s last blog ..hotel rose =-.
Mar — I think this was a bit too centered on American football for my overseas readers.
It’s actually general knowledge, since it is not only a football team 🙂

.-= Mar´s last blog ..paint it red =-.
Nope, not even a wacky guess!
.-= Jientje´s last blog ..Macro Monday, Doors =-.
Jientje — Since it is an Ameican football reference, I am not surprised; but Amoeba lobbied for this pic saying, “It is half a nole, everybody knows half is semi.” So, here it is ….
Even now thazt I know what it is, it still does not ring a bell, sorry!!
.-= Jientje´s last blog ..A Thousand Words in Idioms, the Farm Edition =-.
My first response was…”I got nuthin.'”
But then something came to me in a flash — I’m looking forward to seeing if I’m on the right track or waaaay off base.
.-= Barbara H.´s last blog ..O Jesus, Thou art standing =-.
Definitely on the right track and running in first place.
Woot!! First time in a long time, it seems like. That makes me smile. 😀
.-= Barbara H.´s last blog ..Contentious Christians =-.
Congrat’s Barbara! You’re quick!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Melli Melli Bo Bellie…. =-.
Drat! I”m up unusually early this morning and I thought well maybe I have a chance and then I come and find something that I had to google to even try to have an idea and alas no idea is coming. Naughty Amoeba!
.-= Raven´s last blog ..Saturday Wordzzle Challenge: Week 78 =-.
Raven — yes. If you read his post you’ll see that he was on a roll yesterday.
Congrats to Amoeba, I still have no idea but I’m intrigued.
.-= Doug´s last blog ..The Reformation of Wolfshausen =-.
Doug — for now, maybe ….
I sent a guess… but I’m sure I’m way off!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Melli Melli Bo Bellie…. =-.
Melli — I’m sure you’re not way off, just way late!
Oh WOW! Now I’m waaaaaay AMAZED!!! LOL! I, too, wish I’d thought of HALF BREED! That was great!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Melli Melli Bo Bellie…. =-.
Zip, nada…nothin’….
Not even a guess. Phooey
.-= Shelly´s last blog ..Surfing for Surfaces =-.
Shelly — too much kitchen remodeling, not enough football.
I’m late but I don’t have a clue.
.-= Dr. John´s last blog ..Miracles Happen =-.
Dr. John — well, it’s football so I’m not surprised. Next week will be more your speed. I promise.
I am clueless on this one
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Musical Monday – What Moves You? and a Thank You =-.
Thom — and that’s different how? [shakes head] You know, since this is football, I really thought you might have a chance.
Well Congrats to Barbara….Now if it was the Warriors…maybe so LOL. I should have gotten that but I couldn’t get chief outta my mind and couldn’t come up with a thing. Oh well…some things never change 🙂
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Musical Monday – What Moves You? and a Thank You =-.
Besides which…where do you get semi outta this hmmm?
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Musical Monday – What Moves You? and a Thank You =-.
Semi as in part of. That’s the first thing I noticed was that it seemed to be only part of the picture — I kept waiting for it to load then realized it was a portion.
.-= Barbara H.´s last blog ..Contentious Christians =-.
Thom — this is half a picture. Semi means half. The picture is a Noles bumper sticker, therefore, semi-noles. Very straight forward and logical.
pffft…too abstract
.-= Thom´s last blog ..The Queen’s Meme No. 8 ~ The Bloggingham Love Shack =-.
If my guess is correct my hat’s off to Amoeba – clever. 🙂
.-= Carletta´s last blog ..Mellow Yellow Monday and Lily =-.
Carletta — your guess is correct and sometimes Amoeba is too clever. See all the other upset peoples?
Again, I’m stumped!! And I have even had a few cups of coffee!! LOL! enJOY your day!
Debbie — someday we’ll have to “cook” something up just for you. Too bad you weren’t visiting when we did “donations” (dough nation).
OK, that was just ridiculous.
.-= Doug´s last blog ..Mosaic =-.
Doug — that sounds semi-pouty.
you mean its friggin Florida Seminoles!?
oh man
i recognised that picture
and i looked it up
to find out if i was right
about the university mascot whatever you call it
and
i read the whole wikipedia article on the seminole indians
TWICE!
i do not like this punny mundy
.-= tilden´s last blog .. =-.
Amoeba says, “Poor Tilden”. But he laughing when he said it.
