Once, again, Mr. Punch, with my help, is offering up a true Victorian riddle. The first person to answer correctly--by posting in the comments--will receive public congratulations.
So, here's this week's riddle. We ask that you don't Google the answer. Mr. Punch would not find that sporting at all. Give it a shot and see what you can come up with. Here we go... No cheating...
What is round as a dishpan, deep as a tub, and still the oceans couldn't fill it up?
And...the answer is...
A Sieve or Colander. Congratulations to Kathy for being the first to give the right answer.
I'm closing this week's puzzle a little early since I'm battling a computer virus and wanted to make sure I could post the answer before I start the process of restoring things.
Come back next week for another of Mr. Punch's Puzzles!
