[BradT0517]

I can only think of paintbrush but I think I have seen that before

[Mike Bell]

I still think it's a loofah but it could be a synthetic scouring pad or sponge.

[chansh]

getting there. But it's not brush.

In the bigger crop, it is about 10mm.

Kids use them all the time.

never heard that before. But it's close.

I'm sure someone guess matchstick but that post is gone.

[Broncosaurus]

A spongey bath mitt?

[Mike Bell]

Wait a minute - my kids used to have little soft spongy things to put on the end of a pencil to make them safer. Is it one of those?

NO NO NO......... You almost got it.(the magic word is in your sentance.)

It's woody, long and thin, hard, use by kids. They will use these before using paintbrush.

I will check in in about 7 hours.

If you get bored waiting for me go ahead and put another one up - we could return to this one tomorrow (or another time). :)

[3Turner]

watch gears

[AirBrontosaurus]

A can opener, perhaps?

[jr#8]

Looks like a gripper to turn a gear (but for what)

[Broncosaurus]

A can opener, perhaps?

I think you're right. A big can opener from a restaurant or institutional kitchen.

[thekid24]

gears to an odd tool

[Nzshrimper]

bike sprocket

[Flywing]

Airbront is up!

[AirBrontosaurus]

Hooray!

I'm in class now but I'll post something up soon.

[AirBrontosaurus]

Alright:

[Flywing]

air vent on computer

[Broncosaurus]

That new seven bladed Bic shaver?

[misspix]

*clears throat* If I may? I haven't been around in a bit and this one is begging for one of my classic guesses :)
Hiya Chris (Airbront) long time no see!

'Tis a many louvered metallic thingy!

[BearLeeAlive]

'Tis a many louvered metallic thingy!
Terri, you might be on to something there. :rolleyes: :lol:

Do they actually make 7 bladed razors? My face can't keep up. :p

[misspix]

Terri, you might be on to something there. :rolleyes: :lol:

Do they actually make 7 bladed razors? My face can't keep up. :p

LOL! Couldn't help myself :)

I think the 4 bladed razor is as high as they've gotten. Before too long there will be so many blades that you will have to wear protective gear in order to shave :eek:

[cfpackerfan]

Nope, they now have a 5 blade... with an extra little blade on the front for 'precision' work. :lol:

I would make a guess, but Terri took what I was going to say. :p :lol:

Edited to add THIS (http://www.gillettefusion.com/us/lowband.asp) so you don't think I'm making it all up, LOL

[AirBrontosaurus]

Hi Terri! It's been a while, hasn't it?

Well, it's not a razer (Gillette has a 5-bladed model, which is the most i've seen). Nor is it a computer vent.

[BearLeeAlive]

Nope, nothing do to with heating/cooling.

Next week.

Go grab your chair legs.

[Citizensmith]

Or, try this one. :)

[aLFaDaRK]

book?

[Citizensmith]

book?

Figured it would be a nice easy one. Yup, the spine of a book.

I really need to get more creative. :) Problem is I'm at work and I seem to have macroed about everything else on my desk already.

[BradT0517]

Wow were actually doing good on the macro supply today.

[Citizensmith]

I got another easy one I'll throw out just for the hell of it. Next proper one still goes to AlfaDark. This should take no time, I just kind of liked the photo. :)

[misspix]

I know! I know! And I am not even going to guess copper/silver thingies :)
Tis a sideways stack of quarters!

And it is a cool photo :D

[Skrim17]

And is that one of those Perl CD books to the left?

[BradT0517]

To be technical i think it is 4 quaters 1 nickle the 4 quarters

[BradT0517]

Or its a mirror self portrait of you in the center

[Citizensmith]

Yup, 4 quarters a nickle and 4 more quarters. But you didn't get the years they were made! :)

Now where is Alfadark with one we actually have to think about?

[Citizensmith]

And is that one of those Perl CD books to the left?

The book on the left is Developing Feeds with RSS and Atom. It's one the the standard looking O'Reilly publishing books so there are probably a load that all look the same.

[misspix]

To be technical i think it is 4 quaters 1 nickle the 4 quarters

:) Smarty pants :p

[aLFaDaRK]

Sorry about the wait.

This should be pretty easy -

If you know what it is, that's great, but I want specifics! :)

HAHA, first thing that came to my mind! I thought, "only I would think that", then boom, I scroll down and you said it! :lol:

[DanteCaspian]
