[tomd]

candle

[sblais]

Easter candy?

[sblais]

Frosting on a Graham cracker?
Pop tart?

[BlakeB]

candy yes but thats a very general area... let's have some specificity.

[BlakeB]

Frosting on a Graham cracker?
Pop tart?

no, but closest so far

[sblais]

donut?

[tomd]

glazed marshmallow?

[sblais]

gingerbread house?

[tomd]

coated pretzel?

[BlakeB]

coated pretzel?

chocolate covered pretzel
good job!

[tomd]

OK, It'll be a few minutes (like 10)
Tom

[tomd]

I wish I had a fishing lure right now!
It'll be a few more minutes.
Tom

[tomd]

OK, have at it: (oops, it kind of came up a little big, sorry)

[BlakeB]

that is disgusting looking
is it a brain? lungs?

[sblais]

part of a flower?

[tomd]

NO, not brain, lungs. I'll put it into my mouth to prove it!
I just updated the pic, it may be a little clearer.

[tomd]

Not a flower.
Pic is as taken (no crop) with 100 macro and 3 tubes.

[sblais]

Seems a bit dirty for something that you would put in your mouth ;)

[islandtime]

Gum

[tomd]

Not gum.
This item is not meant to be in the mouth. (too dirty)

[sblais]

I'll put it into my mouth to prove it!

This item is not meant to be in the mouth. (too dirty)

Ok, now I'm confused! ;)

Is it something made of plastic?

[tomd]

plastic no, but rubber would be a good guess.

I said I'd put it into my mouth to rule out other internal body parts. You're right it was confusing.

[RyanCrane]

how about an old crumpled up balloon?

[sblais]

plastic no, but rubber would be a good guess.

I said I'd put it into my mouth to rule out other internal body parts. You're right it was confusing.

I was just teasing :) Can't help but thinking about cabbage...

[StewartR]

I'll second cabbage.

[tomd]

Not a balloon, or cabbage.
It is not edible(can't eat it)
It is rubber!

[tomd]

It is DIRTY (that's a clue).

[RyanCrane]

Is it part of a toy?

[tomd]

no toy, or part of a toy.

[sblais]

A beach ball?

[RyanCrane]

im stumped

[Robogenisis]

How about a rubber glove?

[tomd]

Not a beach ball.
Clue: (for those in US) something Johnny Cochran was famous for talking about.

Clue: This item is dirty so I don't have to be.

[sblais]

Latex gloves?

[tomd]

Sebastien....you're 90% there, can you be a little more specific?
Tom

[RyanCrane]

latex medical examiners glove :)

[sblais]

latex gloves used for gardening?
purple latex gloves?

[tomd]

yes a glove, not latex......

[sblais]

rubber glove (like the ones some people use to do the dishes)? which are thicker

[tomd]

Sebastian:
Glove it is. This is a gardening glove.

[tomd]

It that were an examining glove I think it would HURT!

You are up, nice work...I thought it would be hard, but you zero'd in quickly!

[sblais]

Are those cut resistant gloves? It reminds me of a type of tape that you can roll around your fingers to avoid cutting yourself when doing some wood carving.

[RyanCrane]

how did I not know that!!!! I own those gloves.. but in blue :(

[tomd]

I think the rubber is meant for water proofing. The cotton underlayer is coated or dipped into rubber and the effect is that interesting pattern.

[sblais]

Interesting. This (http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.aspx?c=1&p=31213&cat=1,42207) is the tape I was referring to.

Coming up with an image in a jiffy :)

[sblais]

How about a rubber glove?

Actually, someone guessed it before me! How did we miss that post??

I guess you're up, Robogenisis!

[tomd]

Actually, someone guessed it before me! How did we miss that post??

I guess you're up, Robogenisis!

Thanks Sebastien!
Yes I missed it. I was typing at the same time the correct answer came in; missed it until now. Sorry.

Robo; great guess...you are up for a post!
Tom

[Robogenisis]

I don't have my camera with me, so you can take it.

[sblais]

Alright then!

Here we go:

163078

It's quite noisy, my apologies! No macro ring light and not a whole lot of lighting in my apt unit! ;)

I just hope it's not too easy!

[tomd]

a bracelet?
Thanks

[sblais]

If you mean a bracelet, no. Otherwise, that word is not in my vocabulary and I'll ask you to describe it for me ;)

[islandtime]

A candle holder?

[tomd]

looks like curved rubber item with gold spek finish. How about a flower pot?

[sblais]

Not a candle holder, nor a flower pot.

[jr#8]

beetle

[sblais]

Not a beetle

[tomd]

coffee cup?

[sblais]

Not a cup.

[Apollo11]

A purse?

[Skrim17]

toy?

[jr#8]

sneaker/ or Stargate

[sblais]

Not a purse, not a toy, not a sneaker or a stargate ;)

[Robogenisis]

It seems so familiar....

[islandtime]

a deadbolt or peephole

[sblais]

Ok, so far, we had a bracelet, a candle holder, a flower pot and a purse. Think a bit more masculine!

It's something that would be more associated with a man than a woman. Not 100% true though, I'm sure there are women out there that use this far more than men! But traditionally, it would be more cliché to see this with men.

[ABrownPhoto]

-Watch?
-Compass?
-Purse?
-clock?
-Razor?
-Nose trimmer?

Men Stuff:
-Video game?
-Game boy?
-Tool or tool box?
-Video game console?

[sblais]

Not a deadbolt or peephole... (are you implying that those are associated with men?? ;))

[sblais]

-Watch?
-Compass?
-Purse?
-clock?

None of the above.

[ABrownPhoto]

None of the above.I added a few more before you posted ;)

[ABrownPhoto]

-Zelda?
-Tool BELT?
-Knife sharpener?

[sblais]

-Video game?
-Game boy?
-Tool or tool box?
-Video game console?

Nope to all.

[ABrownPhoto]

-Leather wallet?

[sblais]

-Zelda?
-Tool BELT?
-Knife sharpener?

Gaa! You keep on editing your posts! Can't keep up :lol:!

Not Zelda, not a tool belt, not a knife sharpener

[sblais]

-Leather wallet?

Not a wallet.

[ABrownPhoto]

Gaa! You keep on editing your posts! Can't keep up :lol:!

Not Zelda, not a tool belt, not a knife sharpenerbecause every time i click away from the thread, a new idea pops in my head ;)










:p

[sblais]

because every time i click away from the thread, a new idea pops in my head ;)

:p

No problem :D I tend to do the same! Just messing around ;)

Hint: the yellow part that you see is plastic.

[ABrownPhoto]

-Belt?
-Belt buckle?
-Pocket knife?

[sblais]

-Belt?
-Belt buckle?
-Pocket knife?

Nope.

[ABrownPhoto]

Plastic huh?

-Action Figure?
-Frisbee?

[sblais]

Plastic huh?

-Action Figure?
-Frisbee?

Nope. I wouldn't really consider anything said so far as hot... I think frisbee would be the closest... but even there! ;)

I guess it's harder than I thought it would be! :D yay!

[islandtime]

aftershave bottle

edit posted before I saw the last post.

[sblais]

aftershave bottle

Nope. Although manly, I would still consider Frisbee as a warmer guess.

[ABrownPhoto]

-Toy?
-Something that gets thrown? (cold/hot?)

[sblais]

Not a toy (already been guessed - and it's associated with a man, not a boy ;))
Not meant to be thrown. Some people (read:men ;)) might throw it to the ground when they're done with it.

[ABrownPhoto]

-Cigarette box?
-Cigarette?
-Cigar?
-Pipe?
-Tobacco?

[islandtime]

plastic cigar tip?????

[sblais]

Nothing related to smoking.

[ABrownPhoto]

AARRRGGGGG.... i cannot think anymore :(

-Alcoholic beverage?

[ABrownPhoto]

http://photography-on-the.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=163078Bringning it onto the next page ;)

[sblais]

Nope.

I'll give another hint in a few minutes... :)

[ABrownPhoto]

Nope.

I'll give another hint in a few minutes... :)no NOW! http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/7933/ashadypp2.gif (http://imageshack.us)


:p:p

[sblais]

no NOW! http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/7933/ashadypp2.gif (http://imageshack.us)

:p:p


I guess it's been 5 minutes!

Other hint: It's heavy.

[Robogenisis]

A weight? Like one of those plastic weight lifting weights?

[ABrownPhoto]

-Vaccume? (spelling error?)
-Weight?
-Dumbell? (spelling error?)

[islandtime]

so now we have:

yellow plastic
More for a man thatn a woman but a woman could use it.
Frisbee is warmer
Real men throw it to the ground when they're done.
It's heavy


You call those clues!! :D :lol:

[sblais]

Robogenisis wins once again! If you still don't have your camera, SkweEkiE can go ahead :)

Yes I call those clues! And they allowed TWO people to guess it right! :p :p

EDIT: the macro pic shows the cap where they would pour the cement into the weight. You can also see it on the full size picture :)

[Robogenisis]

I have it with me now:D

[ABrownPhoto]

DANGIT! all those guesses...just to be 1min late :p

Touchet ROBO!

jalapeno popper

[sblais]

One of those spicy Indian/muslim desserts? (I had some at a wedding I shot... delicious!) I don't know the exact name of it though

[Robogenisis]

I think Islandtime has gotten it close enough...

[islandtime]

so was it a spicey cheese fry?

[Robogenisis]

It was a Wasabi Funion.
http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/t464987_FunionFullDone.jpg (http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/i464987_FunionFullDone.jpg)

[islandtime]

:roll: man I was all over and still all around it!

Let me find something to get a pic of.

[sblais]

A funion? is that like a fun onion? I know what wasabi is (sushi anyone?) but never heard of a funion before... Tell me what it is and I'll go to bed (soon) a bit smarter tonight! :D

[Robogenisis]

I just got them at the store.... It says its is a wasabi, onion flavored, ummm, chip?? thing.... What ever... I like them..:D

[sblais]

Ok, so it's really an onion-based thingymagig! :)

[Robogenisis]

Im pretty sure it doesnt have anything even close to an onion in it...
wait.. i checked it and it said it has some "onion powder"...

[Robogenisis]

Its actually corn meal based..

[islandtime]

Here it is:

That's it. Your turn.

[ABrownPhoto]

Ooohhh Pentium D? :D

[islandtime]

Pentium D's were the first try at dual core. The Core 2's are much better.
