Suddenly, I'm covered in flowers. Which is different. I'm not complaining, could have been worse. Kinda unusual for it to rain flowers, though. Things have gotten a little quiet the past few days. I'm gettin' prickles on the back of my neck just waiting for a curse. Don't think the flowers are it since I don't want to eat 'em or anything weird like that.


So I've got a question... How is a raven like a writing desk?

Someone said it's a riddle, but I got no clue what a raven and a writing desk have in common. I'm thinking the guy was trying to screw with me.

The Major has allies. I suspected before, he was too on the gil to not have, but confirmed now.

I've got a feeling I won't be getting what I want out of him, not with usual methods. The man's a tough nut, maybe one of the toughest. You can't threaten him. Can't out maneuver him. Far too smart. He's playing a game I've got yet to figure out the rules on, and if I don't I'm never going to catch up with him.

...it was always easier just bustin' through the elevator doors.

Easy... 'They were both written on by Poe'.

That's always been my favorite answer to that riddle....

Poe? Edgar Allen Poe? I take it that you haven't read any of his books... He was a famous American writer and poet from the early to mid 1800's in my world... the stories he wove were quite dark. He excelled in mysteries, and the macabre.

Would you like to borrow my copy of 'the Raven'? Mr. Police Man....

There's no right answer for that question, I'm afraid.

"Because they both come with inky quills." "Because there is a B in both and an N in neither." "They both stand on sticks."

All are popular answers.

But overall, they only highlight that the question is ridiculous. The answer is entirely up to you, granted they make sense.

There isn't an answer. It was a riddle presented in the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by the character the Mad Hatter. Just like his name says he's "mad" in the insane sense and he asks the main character Alice that. When she gives up and asks for the answer he says that he doesn't know. Something like that, it's been a while since I've read it.

But one answer other people have come up with is "because Poe wrote on both."

Because he wanted to confuse you with a riddle that doesn't have a concrete answer?

Odd question to ask. But I'm good.

Because there is a 'B' in both.

No, but it is true to the sense of humor of the man who originally asked the riddle.
