Tuesday Teaser for May 29, 2007
Can you identify the item depicted above? Take your best guess and post it in the comments below. If your guess wins, you’ll win a nifty prize. Here’s how it works:
1. Write a comment giving your guess as to what the item is.
2. First person to identify the item wins.
3. The author of this blog will be the sole judge as to what constitutes a correct answer.
What will you win?
1. The author of this blog will write a LINKY LOVE POST (review) about the winner’s blog. The LLP will contain the url for your blog plus two deep links and will be posted here on Skeet’s Stuff, a PR4 blog. Skeet writes good reviews. 
2. The winner’s name will be entered into a drawing for a $10.00 gift card from Starbucks or Amazon.
3. Drawing for the gift card will be held on May 31, 2007,and will include all weekly winners for the month, thus the maximum number of people who will be eligble is four. That’s pretty good odds.
Other stuff
1. All comments to this blog are time and date stamped. The winner will be the first person (according to time and date stamp) to provide the correct answer.
2. No hints will be given.
3. Answers must specifically identify the item. For instance, if the item depicted were to be a button on a remote control, the answer “button on something electronic” would not suffice.
4. Decisions of the judge are final. Don’t argue with me. I won’t answer.
5. I will attempt to post every few hours as to whether or not a winner has been declared, but I am not continuously at the keyboard so please be patient.
6. Entries must be posted before 1:00 a.m. Thursday, May 31, 2007, Hawaii time (GMT -10, approximately forty-eight hours from now.)
7. This is intended to be an ongoing feature at Skeet’s Stuff. If it turns out to be a dud it will cease to exist, but all qualified winners will get their prizes.
8. Skeet’s Stuff is a do-follow blog, so you get some link value just for commenting.
9. Let the fun begin!

Spent 5 minutes trying to figure out but I have no idea. I give up!!!
May 29th, 2007 at 9:03 am, skeet Says:
Sorry Chris. Neither of your guesses is correct. Keep trying!
May 29th, 2007 at 9:05 am, skeet Says:
No Charlotte, not a boat hatch.
May 29th, 2007 at 9:05 am, skeet Says:
Sorry Lisa! Your guesses are incorrect, but you can try again!
May 29th, 2007 at 9:07 am, skeet Says:
You still have about 40 hours to guess it, Cyberprtygal. Don’t give up!

Is it something I am going to bang my head against since all the opps I click on right now give me a proxy error?
May 29th, 2007 at 10:13 am, skeet Says:
I hope you’ll keep trying instead of injuring yourself Lisa! Why mke yourself crazy trying to take opps when you can do the same thing right here.

scissors yeah, I run with them all the time
May 29th, 2007 at 10:30 am, Ann Says:
Is it where tiles come together?
May 29th, 2007 at 10:38 am, Jules Says:
Is it a three ring binder clasp in a notebook?
May 29th, 2007 at 10:42 am, Jules Says:
Or it’s a latch on a fence.
May 29th, 2007 at 11:06 am, Cynthia Blue Says:
It looks like the underside of a metal desk where the braces come together. :p

Masonry drill bit ooojawamaflip thingy
umm one of those weird shaped drill things that goes through bricks.
whatever that is called.
May 29th, 2007 at 11:24 am, Ann Says:
The tread on the sole of a shoe?
May 29th, 2007 at 12:11 pm, skeet Says:
Darn it, Martin! I’m going to have to make these harder! How am I supposed to generate traffic if I’m obligated to announce that someone made a lucky guess and the contest is over, lol!
You are correct. It is a pair of scissors and I’ll put a verification photo in a new post above. You’ve won a linky love post and a chance to win a $10.00 gift card when I do the drawing on Thursday. Congratulations!
May 29th, 2007 at 12:12 pm, skeet Says:
No Ann, it’s not tiles.
May 29th, 2007 at 12:13 pm, skeet Says:
I’m amazed at all of the things that people see in the puzzle photos. No, Jules, it’s not a three-ring binder clasp.
May 29th, 2007 at 12:13 pm, skeet Says:
Not a latch on a fence either, Jules!
May 29th, 2007 at 12:14 pm, skeet Says:
It’s not a metal brace on a desk, Cynthia.
May 29th, 2007 at 12:17 pm, skeet Says:
You go the name of the thingy you were thinking of right, but that’s not the thingy in the puzzle, Chris. I wore down a lot of masonry drill bits back in the days when I did termite treatments instead of limiting myself to just inspections.
May 29th, 2007 at 12:18 pm, skeet Says:
Not the tread on a shoe sole, Ann.
