Wednesday's First Riddle Is.................................

Post by Stitchindude »

Riddle in the middle, in the middle of the week,
Is it hard, is it easy, is it really fantastically unique!

What do bullet proof vests, fire escapes,
windshield wipers, and laser printers all have in common?

This doesn't seem to be a word puzzle (they have the letters pers in common). That I know this shows exactly how sad I can be...! :shock: :lol:

Well, as a mom who has to come up with new ways to accomplish things in a house full of guys, I'd guess these were all created/invented by women who saw a need for them.

You know what they say: Necessity is the mother of invention. ;)
