Speaking of carrots-Stinky, the guinea pig, is off his carrots. I'm a little worried.(although-he's lived a long life for a guinea pig) I'm also a little hopeful...because I truthfully do not enjoy cleaning up the stink of Stinky. But I love his Weeep Weeep Weeep talk. In fact we carry on a regular conversation of Weeeps back and forth. Anyone who has ever owned a guinea pig knows what I'm talking about. As I glance at Stinky now he is eating his Timothy Hay. Good Sign. Maybe it was just a bad batch of carrots. I hope he didn't hear me talking about him. He's a good pig. I highly recommend guinea pigs for anyone with young children- or for anyone who likes to "talk " to their pets and have them talk back. We've had generations of pigs in our family. I thought it would be a great way for my kids to experience "animal husbandry" prior to the pre adolescent "sex talk". I have some great great great stories I will share some day-when I have time. Meanwhile- I am moving this weekend. Which means I will not have a lot of time to work on the riddle. So I may wind up posting it before I have figured it out. But you have to PROMISE not to give me the answer until I say so. I just know I will conquer it eventually-and I don't want anyone to spoil my sense of accomplishment.! So Promise? ? I will not post until everyone PROMISES me they will not divulge the answer to me. TTFN, Cobby

I promise!
Guinea pigs ... one of the only animals that did not bite me and everyone in my department back when I managed for Petsmart ... a bad batch once gave me ringworm, however, LOL....

I'll post it tomorrow morning-while I'm at my post in front of the computer while I'm infusing. ;D
I just hope I can find it.

Okay-here's the Riddle:
What row of numbers comes next? This is a tough one! 1 11 21 1211 111221 312211 13112221
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can tell me when you get it-just don't tell me what the answer is.
I think I'm going to go to bed tonight with it printed on my forehead. I seem to solve a lot of problems in my sleep.
That's what happened with Haku's puzzle. I sat bolt upright in bed, after a good night's sleep and said "I GOT IT!"
Course my brain is currently preoccupied with THE MOVE and trying to figure out where to put certain pieces of furniture in my new space. Hey-that would make a fun puzzle-if I posted an empty floor plan and told you what furniture I have.
Bye for Now. Cobby

Okay- I peeked at the answer-which I didn't even understand at first. Now I got it.
I'll post a hint if anyone wants one.

I'm outta here for a while because of moving-but I better see an answer from someone when I get back.
And that's an order. Even if it's the wrong answer. Just give it a shot.

I'm so bad at number puzzles ... let me give it another go before I come groveling for a hint! I'm not really good at NOT giving hints-in fact that's half the fun of playing games- usually people get mad at me. But I'm too pathetic to get mad at-so here goes with an unsolicited hint... STOP READING NOW IF YOU DON'T WANT IT... ____________________________________________________ forget the numbers-use words.
