Riddle me this:

 

When standing up, it's done down,

when lying down, it's done up.

 

What is it?

 

Hello Mr. Turtle, the only thing that comes to mind is "SEX" and I doubt that

is the right answer, I think that we are going to need a good clue on this

one.

 

William :):

 

Not sex; not zipper. the clue is already in my post. ;)

 

PS "I HAVE STOOD AND STOOD TALL" *

"IN THE CITY WHERE THE YANKEES PLAY BALL" *

"I HAVE AMAZED MANY WITH MY PRIDE"

"A MEMORY THAT YOU JUST CAN NOT HIDE"

Good show Freazter! Did you get the hint? "What is it?" ....What isit? ...What is sit?" :) That's all I got tonight... besides post-election withdrawl. ;) :hihi:

 

Actually, I was thinking about it for hours in the back of my head. I had to revisit it a few times to refresh. For some reason, the last time I looked at it, I thought "opposite of standing". I suppose the standing hints helped a bit in that sense. :)

 

Good one Mr. Turtleapogos!

 

A new one may I present:

 

I wear the words of frustrated minds

Always keeping them in a bind

I move from meaning to meaning within

Sometimes I end, but always begin

A bee is to honey, As I am to this

Crumpled fingers and fingers to lips

I may evade you, but I am right here

The very same riddle that you probably hear

 

What am I?
