Falling You – Reading The Leaves (By Moonlight)

[Gaberax]

One from the Far East, accidentally dead, ‘neath tons of rock and debris?
Or an Australian’s ranch named for pastry shells, in the outback so wild and free?
Broken into segments, joints and limbs, antennae that flash with pride
Water to swim, land to walk, bones that live on the outside.

What am I?

:excited:Welcome back Gabe!!! :excited:


"bones that live on the outside."

I'm thinking exoskeleton, crustacean, coral.


Just trying to warm things up.

WAKE UP RIDDLERS!!!!

*does the new riddle dance*:dance:

I like Jon's guess...crustacean, possibly? (not too sure about the spelling)

I think it works with a few lines, at least. =/

Well Jon, your thinking is CLEAR, Crustacean is the correct answer.
Hot, steaming goose with succulent, golden brown, crusty skin for you, my friend.

I'd like to challenge the group to fill in the answers to the 1st two lines, tho. More goose is available.

Crushed Asian for the first one, me thinks, but that second line is giving me tons of trouble.

[Rjeso]

A crust can be a shell made of pastry... the second half, I don't know.

Ooooh, Lil' Slugger gets some gooseage. Crushed Asian is correct! :clap:
Crushed goose bites for you!

[Sam]

Second line... Crust a Cean? Or Crust of Sean

[Gaberax]

No, think of another name for an Australian ranch. :orely:

[Rjeso]

Station.

Crust Station.

Meh. :P ;)

[SigTauGimp]

Sounds pretty good to me, Dream. :thumbsup:

[Gaberax]

Yes, Dream, that is what I was going for. :clap: Excellent! Crusty goose bites to you, my friend.
