somone else was holding an umbrella over his head. It was not HIS protection.

Fleetp gave me the answer I was looking for. He was bald. I did like Mr. Blues answer as it was funny to me. Salty I think if someone was holding a umbrella then he was being protected by it regardless of ownership of the umbrella and the fact he was not holding it but anyway thanks for trying. Fleetp its your show now.

I like Mr. Blue's answer.


Here's Gollum's final riddle from 'The Hobbit'.
What thing is he talking about?


This thing all things devours;
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers.
Gnaws iron; bites steel.
Grinds hard stones to meal.
Slays kings, ruins towns,
and beats high mountains down.

Feel free to do a search at any time.

[Pirate]
