Tuesday Teaser for June24, 2008
Can you identify the item depicted above? Take your best guess and post it in the comments below. If your guess wins, you’ll get a nifty prize. Here’s how it works:
1. Write a comment giving your guess as to what the item is. Be as specific as you can. A table is too vague - a clamp on a card table leg is specific.
2. First person to identify the item wins. If more than one person provides the correct answer, time and date stamp will determine who was first.
3. The author of this blog will be the sole judge as to what constitutes a correct answer. Sorry - no hints will be given. I will attempt to respond to your answers at least every few hours, but I am not continuously at the keyboard so please be patient.
4. The contest will end in forty-eight hours, whether or not a correct guess has been submitted.
5. Skeet’s Stuff is a do-follow blog, so you get some link value just for commenting.
What will you win?
1. The author of this blog will write a LINKY LOVE POST (review) about the winner’s blog (commercial sites ineligible.) The LLP will contain the url for your blog plus at least two deep links and will be posted here on Skeet’s Stuff, a PR4 PR2 PR0 (bah google!) Ha! PR3 blog. Skeet writes good reviews. 
2. The weekly winners will be entered into a monthly drawing for a $10.00 gift card from Starbucks or Amazon or a ten dollar payment through PayPal.
3. Drawing for the monthly prize will be held on or about July1, 2008, and will include all weekly winners for the month. There are four Tuesdays in June thus the maximum number of people who will be eligble is four.
Comments submitted with commercial links will be deleted. If you would like to market your product, service or website through skeet’s stuff I’ll be happy to discuss your needs and my prices. Please submit your request via email.

What is a “window latch?”
June 24th, 2008 at 2:42 am, cardiogirl Says:
Is that the bottom view of a desk chair, like a small chair a child would sit in? I imagine if the chair were sitting on the floor, you would have to be lying down on the floor underneath the seat to get that picture.
That’s my final answer.
Also, could you make the picture a bit larger next time for those of us who are 40 and older — maybe three inches wide? Thanks in advance.
June 24th, 2008 at 3:02 am, Lisa Says:
I can see the other answers.
It is the latch to a window that you have to turn to open.
June 24th, 2008 at 3:15 am, Raynebow Says:
I think it is the latch to open/close sliding doors. You push the lever to open the sliding doors. In the picture, it’s firmly latched down.

[…] the most difficult of concepts effortlessly. I like the satire the author has to offer. It is an attractive blog with a great visual appeal. Absolutely like the clarity with which even the most complicated topics […]

It’s a crank to a pasta maker.
June 24th, 2008 at 8:31 am, skeet Says:
Not a hole punch or a paper cutter, Mistipurple. Keep trying - one guess per comment, please!
June 24th, 2008 at 8:33 am, skeet Says:
It’s not a pencil sharpener, Jaime. Take another look!
June 24th, 2008 at 8:34 am, skeet Says:
Watch Jeopardy much, Lee? Nope - it’s not a window latch. Keep trying!
June 24th, 2008 at 8:38 am, skeet Says:
Sorry Cardiogirl - not the underside of a desk.
I’ll give due consideratin to making the pieces a little larger in the future. If I blow them up very much they get pixilated & that doens’t help anyone, y’know? But as one who has been in bifocals for many years - um, yeah, I get it!

the latch to raise the back of a boat seat?
June 24th, 2008 at 8:41 am, skeet Says:
It’s not a window latch, Lisa.
I’ve always shown the other answers except when I’ve used multiple pictures in a game. Helps you out because you can eliminate items that others have guessed.
Take another look and try again!

A CAN OPENER@!!!!!

June 24th, 2008 at 8:50 am, Gina Says:
Lock on a moving van?
June 24th, 2008 at 9:41 am, Karen Says:
How about part of an electric can opener?
June 24th, 2008 at 10:30 am, Colleen Says:
Is it the base of a windshield wiper?
June 24th, 2008 at 12:38 pm, Sarah @ pussreboots Says:
Garlic press?
June 24th, 2008 at 4:00 pm, Matt Saint Cool Says:
Is it a joint in a collapsible deck chair?
June 24th, 2008 at 4:01 pm, Cindi Says:
Hello, How about a can opener?! Thanks, Cindi
June 24th, 2008 at 6:40 pm, Lisa Says:
A boat throttle lever?
June 24th, 2008 at 11:25 pm, skeet Says:
It’s not a latch on a boat seat, Gina. Or a can opener. You got it right on your next guess. It’s the latch on the back door of a truck/delivery van. Congratulations. You’ve won Tueday Teasers! I’ll post the full pic soon.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:26 pm, skeet Says:
It’s not a ca opener, Karen. We have a winner and I’ll post the photo soon.

Sorry, Colleen, it’s not a windshield wiper. We have a winner, so come back later to see the whole picture.

It’s not a garlic press, Sarah. I’ll be posting the full photo soon.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:29 pm, skeet Says:
Sorry Matt - it’s not a deck chair. We have a correct answer, so I’ll do a new post with the full photo soon.
June 24th, 2008 at 11:30 pm, skeet Says:
Not a can opener, Cindi, but you aren’t the only one who thought it might be. We have a winner. I’ll be posting the original photo soon, so make sure you stop back in!
June 24th, 2008 at 11:31 pm, skeet Says:
Not a boat throttle, Lisa. The winner’s announcement and photo will be posted shortly so come see what it is!
