Turtle Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 i can be the source of your delight or your death.i am not what people see in me.i can portend the future or hide the present.hint: i am a physical 'thing'Further hint: 'it' can kill you from afar without you ever seeing or hearing it, or it can kill you up close & personal and all you can see or hear is it. Another hint: 'it' has been around before people existed to see it or categorize it. A stroke of lightning? Not a stroke of lightning :), but that is faraway the best guess yet. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karnuvap Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I am not familiar with the rules of base ball but is the Babe Ruth one some sort of play on the words "Get Out" in relation to either hitting the ball out of the field or being caught out?

YIPEEEE!!!! Karnu is close enough with the answer I was looking for and Turtle got it indirectly with three strikes and you are out.
