What Is It #11

Before we begin: I've updated my blog link list. I think everyone is included, but if I've neglected to add your name, please feel free to let me know in the comments or by email and I'll be sure to add you as well. Quilly and Bond, I'm still trying to figure out why your two are the only ones that won't link up properly.

~~~

Here's a blast from the past. The other day when I took a picture of my ridiculously expensive light bulb for the TV, it reminded me of the guessing game I used to post here on occasion. Looking through the archives showed that the last time I did this was back in July. Wow, time flies.

Knowing there are some new readers since that time, here's how it works: Below you will see three items pictured at a very close up perspective. Can you guess what they are?

I will post the answers along with an expanded view picture of all three tomorrow.

Hints are included at the bottom of this post if you get stumped.

#1

#2

#3




***Give up? Hints Below***

#1 Out of this world

#2 I'll trade you my sandwich for your cookie

#3 For the right application please use . . .

Hmmm ... #1 has me stumped!

#2? The inside of a lunch box?

#3? Make up sponges?

Sandee said...

#1 Haven't a clue.

#2 It's a lunchbox that everyone had back in the 50s and 60s. The metal part is where the thermos goes. Oh I so know this one.

#3 Same as #1.

Have a terrific day. :)

If people don't know the way to Bond's place, then we can tell them where to go, but they may not like where it leads them...*evil grin*

Thom - - Dr. John said...

Dana- I will be quite surprised if anyone can come up with the first one.

Sandee- Lisa has two of these from her childhood. A "Rifleman" one and this "Batman" one.

Nessa- None of them?

Sandi- That first one is a real stinker isn't it?

Songbird- I love telling people where to go! Muahahaha

nitebyrd said...

I know #3, make-up sponges. #1 - WTF? and #2 caused me a bit of concern because of the body outline, but I still had no clue.

Ron said...

#1 I have no earthly idea

#2 Inside of a lunch box

#3 Makeup sponges

Roan said...

#1 - Beats me! But I'm still thinking
#2 - Lunchbox interior
#3 - Makeup sponges

Thom - - Dr. John said...

Nitebyrd- When I show everyone #1 tomorrow, I have a feeling you will all say, "How the hell were we supposed to get that one!"

Ron- Your getting sleepy, very, very sleepy.

BJ- Ain't I a stinker?

Jay said...

#1. ????

#2. Inside of a lunch box

#3. Hmmm ...

San said...

All I get is the lunchbox. Thanks for the clue. I'll take your Mickey cake for my Spam on Wonder.

Thom - - Dr. John said...

Jay- Your guessing ability is skeery mad.

San- Throw in those Twinkies and you have a deal.

Finding Pam said...

1. Rocket engine motor
2. Inside lunch box which is worth quite a lot of dinero on ebay.
3. foam makup sponges.

Lanny said...

Yep, what they all said, 'cept for the rocket man whatever.

Vodka Mom said...

I've decided I DO need glasses. for sure.

Roan said...

With regard to #1...Because of the clue, I started thinking space..outer..space shuttle! I thought it resembled the ends of the booster rockets, but alas, after googling tons of pics, none match up. However, it could be the actual shuttle itself. But, I couldn't find the scientific term, so I will call it the Space Shuttle's exhaust pipe! There...that's my guess and I'm sticking to it!

Kaylia Metcalfe said...

wow... those are hard! I will need to think about it a bit...

Oh, and my site is listed but it says I haven't updated for 5 days... and well... I have :P

Kaylia Metcalfe said...

Ok, so I read the conmments... make up things? no wnder I didn't know what they were :P

Dr.John said...

Never was good at guessing stuff like that. But the first could be a rocket engine and the second a lunch box.

Jeff B said...

Pam- As you will see from the next post, "We have a winner!"

Lanny- Good to see you again, and you're not that far off with that.

Vodka Mom- Sorry

BJ- Not sure if that's dedication or obsession. Bwahahahaha

Your were very close though

Kay- I noticed that when I clicked over to your site last night. I like this feature, but is doing some weird things.

Dr John- You're better at it than you take credit for. Two out of three ain't bad.
