Lol, that's a weird, brain-breaking riddle. I would never be able to solve such one because the answer is that hidden that you cannot logically find it at all...

Well here's another one:

Weight in my belly, Trees on my back, Nails in my ribs, Feet I do lack. What am I?

Those with a keen eye might recognise this one...

Yup, Titan's got it! Anyone else before I post the answer? Extra point to anyone who can guess where it's from.

Where it's from?
Since i've got the correct answer, here is a guess... it's an OLD riddle then, perhaps something from 17:th century'ish?

Are you looking for a specific writer? is it a famous one?

:shock: !!! could it be....

a catapulting mechanism? like a 'trebuchet' from the game age of empires.. kinda make sense with the tree in my back (launcher), nails in my ribs (made of wood) and feet i do lack (using wheel).. but the belly stuff doesn't make any sense.. (weight = stones??) coz the stones are put in the launcher..

and what about the writer?? :shock: :shock: are we talking about a book here?
