Everybody here thinks that he needs you.

When the clue is scrambled, the word is rife with certainty,

Or if its a mixed message, you'll need heart to find the key.

Take one away and be careful what you wear,

But one too many could play havoc with your hair.

Science has come far since then, they say,

So dissect me carefully to find the way.

[Jon]

I think we need to scramble the word "certainty" in the right way...I suck at such things!

[LadyHitchhiker]

Is it heart?

[ZoNeSeeK]

i dont see the correct answer. Jon is on the right track with scrambled words ...

[LadyHitchhiker]

Scrambled eggs!

Green eggs and ham!

[ZoNeSeeK]

no

and somehow green eggs doesnt seem very appertising

[LadyHitchhiker]

You do not like green eggs and ham?

[ZoNeSeeK]

What is a green egg?

[LadyHitchhiker]

You have never read Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss? Great book!

It's a story with a moral to it.

[ZoNeSeeK]

Ah ok i had heard of it from somewhere, now you've reminded me

[LadyHitchhiker]

When I say "You do not like green eggs and ham?" You're supposed to say, "I do not like them Sam I am.."

Heeheee...

[Brice]

When we were kids our family had this tradition where on your birthday you could have whatever you wanted for dinner. One year (I believe I was five or six) because of me the whole family had to eat this putrid shade of Green eggs and ham (which was my favorite book). Needless to say I was thrilled. They weren't quite as happy about it. We still have fond memories of that day.

Death?

***Officially, I think my answer (Death) is wrong. But it is a great riddle....very intriguing...and I sure as hell can't come up with a better answer. ***

[Jon]

It sure sounds like Zone's style!

[ZoNeSeeK]

You're on the right track Gab, but incorrect letters.

Hint: Focus on the first two lines, the anagram words will jump out at you

[Gaberax]

When the clue is scrambled, the word is rife with certainty,

surefire? Hell, I feel dumb as a brick.

[Rjeso]

Yeah, this one's got me stumped too.

ETA: I was wondering if the letters in "rife with certainty" would come up as anything. Nothing worthwhile yet, except "arthritic weeny fit," which I like quite a lot.

ETA2: Also, "twitchier tiny ref".

[Rjeso]

I like Gaberax's idea with "surefire," but making it work with the other clues is tough.

[ZoNeSeeK]

You're sure thats it? with certainty?

[Rjeso]

Hahaha, you're not helping.

[ZoNeSeeK]

Oh but i am!

[Jon]

Perhaps he should define "help."

I don't know how to figure this out. I have looked at this thread several times but I cannot do it.

You're hovering around part of the answer. As Monroe would say, "less is more"

[Telynn]

I like "arthritic weeny fit" myself.
