Odd Reminiscences II
By Scott D. Zachary Copyright 2003
First described by an Italian, Nearly sung by the Eagles, Aviators’ instruments depend on it. Power plants use its cooling force.
Sometimes used in parades, A variant may describe a conversation. Heightens Caribbean festivities, A child ambles this simple toy.
Insanity ensues when they’re gone. Sometimes steely or a domesticated eye. Buonarotti’s quarries . . . What more can say I?
The least and the most, In their colorless contrast, Sets of eight they boast, Actuating their padded hammers.
Ah sorry Scott, this friend can't decipher them, I've never been very good with puzzles or riddles...but enjoyed them nonetheless and look forward to seeing the answers eventually...Peace as always, Ed & Woofie (ruff)
Darn you! ...and I had stuff to do this weekend! Now, I've got a riddle to work on, Geesh!

Hey Scott,
I know you turn off your email when your writing sometimes, so I thought I'd try to get your attention here.
I was only able to solve 2 of your riddles. You didn't say that people couldn't get help, so I printed out several copies of your riddles and took them down to the bar. It was getting pretty roudy when I got there. After I hganded them out, the place sure got quiet. I told them I'd split the hunderd bucks with anyone that helped me solve them. I sure could use the cash. I paused my New Year celebrating so I could come back and submit my answers. When are you going to announce the winner?
Bob, Sally, Furl, and a bunch of others told me to pass on their Happy New Year greetings to you. Happy New Years from Arkansas.
Still Living on my Feet is the follow up to Tichaona Chinyelu’s first book, In the Whirlwind, which was rooted in a sense of hard-hitting revolutionary black love. However, in this sophomore effort, Tichaona brings the revolutionary essence from deep
