Well I wasn't sure how easy it would be. I tried to make it a bit hard, but then, looking at the clues, I thought maybe it seemed a bit easy. Hence, give other people a chance thing.
Anyway, guess away now!!!!!

Water in three states. Solid, liquid and gas.

Oh come ON, couldn't you at least pretend to find it hard?

FINE, your turn Charger <_<

Edit: Think I'll REALLY have to try harder next time. Need to find something that will stump even the mighty quiz person that is Charger

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Jay290783 @ Aug 14 2006, 08:58 AM) [snapback]67885[/snapback]</div>I wouldn't try too hard, Jay. That was a good one and it did take some thinking. I really wasn't sure if that was the answer or not, it was just my first guess. Half the fun is when the questions are not too hard, that way anyone can answer them and the thread keeps moving. After all, the name of the game is common knowledge! It just looks like not many peeps are playing these days?!

Let's stick with any easy one....

Ring
Balls
Tacks

Is it a body part of some kind? In the case of Tacks I can only think of Thumb as in Thumb Tacks, and Thumb goes with Ring as well, but Thumb Balls? Doesn't make sense to me unless it's an American only thing like Thumb Tacks (which we call Drawing Pins) but I knew about Thumb Tacks via WWE and ECW

Anyway, go back on subject, is it some kind of body part? If not, I'm stumped and this is supposed to be EASY?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Jay290783 @ Aug 15 2006, 06:58 AM) [snapback]67895[/snapback]</div>There may be body parts in there somewhere. I wouldn't rule them all out. It's not thumbs.

A clue, just for you, to help you get through.
Including the first three, but this one is new.
To get the right one, you must combine two.

Does that help?

OK, I typed in all 3 words into Google and it came up with search results as Jewellery. Sooo...are they all types of Jewellery?
Rings are just well rings,
Balls are some sort of like Jewel Encrusted Ball or something,
and Tacks are Tie Tacks.
Am I close? Miles away?
That little clue ryhme thing you provided was even more cryptic than the three words

i was thinking feet - but not coz im a dirty google cheat like Jay



Ring - Toe RING

Ball - BALL of your foot

Tack - Tack(le) like football


see.... no i know its not right but i had no other ideas - is it even close??

Well, we've got some players!!! Unfortunately, none of these answers are correct.

Only one of the three is a body part and two of you literally don't have them, but figuratively could.

A single word relates to each.
All of them, figures of speech.
One of them, you try to reach.

That will help!

[SIZE=1]Figures of speech?

What about 'brass'?

I dunno about 'brass ring', but 'brass balls' sure makes sense, and I'm sure I've heard 'brass tacks' someplace...iono.[/SIZE]

Hmmm. Let's examine the clues.

To get the right one, you must combine two? Copper+Zinc=Brass

One of them, you try to reach? "Reach for the brass ring" is a common expression regarding the strive for success.

A body part one could figuratively have? Brass balls would fit there.

Enough farting around, let's get down to brass tacks. KFH has once again shown he is smarter than the average fried hippie! The answer is BRASS.

Sorry if some of you found this one too difficult.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(chargerfanchs @ Aug 26 2006, 02:23 PM) [snapback]68166[/snapback]</div>[SIZE=2]Too difficult? Nah, was really easy
Well proves what I've already said before, I am too young for some of these things. Although I have obviously heard of Brass Balls, but the Brass Ring and Brass Tacks things? Er, no, never heard of those sayings
Well go KFH for getting it right. You see, the colonel DOES know best Even if he HAS become a hippie [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Alllrighty...lemme see what I can whip up real quick. Mind you, I just woke up, so this might not be the most difficult one...or it might just be inane.

Monitors
Food Containers
Paperwork


...yeah, good luck with that one. Hardly even makes sense to me. [/SIZE]

Big guess to start things off - You can RECYLE them?

[SIZE=1]Nope! >.> Sorry![/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Monitors use electricity like its food,
You store food in Food Containers
Paperwork and food? Er, something to do with Paperwork is the food of big high executive type people? [/SIZE]
