Questions from the back of the card: Riddles

the interesting idea... the start of this project... the conversations to come

I'm a member of Post Crossing, the internet site for postcard exchange. I sent a card to another Post Crosser, Ilona from Germany. She asked that people tell her which magical power they would like to have. Her question really made me think!

In turn, I thought it would be an interesting project to ask people to pose Thought-Provoking Questions. I would do my best to answer with my opinion, and I would encourage others to add theirs.

And, so was born this blog! I hope that it will be the home for many interesting conversations in the year ahead!

A Riddle! (I love riddles!)

Julian, a very clever and articulate chap from Malaysia, sent this charming card and a riddle in verse:

I have a thousand faces - maybe more.

I'd love to visit a thousand places - then some more.

Alas, my minder would've none of it

The choleric dude who wears his heart on his sleeve.

And I don my thoughts on my back. What am I?

The first post crossing card!

Art, Great Gams, and a Poser of a Question!

Pippa, from Australia asks

Why did the pike take a hike?

And the question was on this artistic card from a project in Australia that solicits artwork for distribution on its postcards.

Pippa is the Post Crosser; Clarissa Bones is the photographer; AvantCard.com.au is the project.

And I have no idea why the pike took a hike!

Why did the chicken cross the road (other than to get to the other side)?

A Google search on this question returned over 600,000 hits!

Come back tomorrow for the answer Chris provided!
