We really ought to re-up the daily riddle threads. Those things gave me something to think about and do at work.

If I had anything available, I'd post one myself now. But if I don't see anyone else find one, I'll try to come up with something tonight.

In each of the sentences below a word is concealed, such as the word "no" that is marked in CAP'S in the fifth sentence. If you can find the other buried words and read them in order, they will form a well-known proverb.

1. The word buried here has only one letter.
2. Did you find a jelly roll in Gaskin's Bakery?
3. It's the best one I've ever seen.
4. The rug at her stairway was made in India.
5. He's aN Old friend.
6. Amos sold his bicycle to a friend.

PM me the answer if you think you know it...i'll post the correct answer here sometime tomorrow afternoon.

The answer to this riddle is: A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss

Two items enter your home. The first item arrives inside the other; but leaves with the other item inside it. What are they?

Ok, the board went 5 for 5 on that one. I've posted the answer in the original reply and will hit up a new thread for a new riddle from me.

Still trying to wrap my head around catman's riddle. I'm sure it's obvious when you hear the answer but I'm kinda stuck. Wait - I think I just figured it out.
