Who wants to play a game? The weekend is here, so rather than writing a traditional blog, I thought I would do something more exciting, more fun, or as much fun as one can have by solving riddles and searching for things. Before you get all excited, this is basically Where’s Waldo, but much less difficult, with the added fun of solving a riddle to find out what you’re supposed to be looking for. Sounds fun right? What else do you have to do on a Friday night? Go out and have a social life? Please, don’t be delusional. You’re sitting at home right now, bored out of your mind and looking for something exciting today, and it’s your lucky day, because Dr. Kendall has found the cure for your boredom. Let’s play.
Okay, we’ll start off with a simple one so you don’t get scared off right from the onset, and give up before you even begin. While I do want you to exercise your brains throughout the process, I do want it to be fun, at least at the beginning.
This ornament proves I’m the perfect son.
My mom had three boys and I’m number one. I’m going to give you a minute to ponder it, to really think about it before I help you out. Oh man, you should see your face right now, actually believing that I’m going to “help you out.” This is so easy that babies without a comprehension of words could solve this riddle, so if you actually think that I’m going to give you any other clues, or will actually give you the answer, you should probably just quit now, because you’re hopeless. For those of you left, who aren’t crying your eyes out into your pillow because the game just seems so complex, did you figure out which ornament I’m talking about? If so, you may continue on.
These often line the rocky coastline, ensuring all boats arrive just fine.
So what do you think? Do you like the rhyming? To be honest I’m really enjoying it, like I’m a rapper or a poet or something, rather than some boring 9 to 5 bank worker. This one might be even simpler than the last one, but believe me, I’m going to crank up the heat after this one and make it harder on you, so you’d be wise to enjoy this while it lasts. Okay, if you figured it out, which if you didn’t you should be deeply ashamed and embarrassed, you may move on to round three.

This one is a little tougher, but I’m confident that if you’ve made it this far, then you’re capable of decoding this hint, and once you do that, it should be very easy to find on the tree. Did you find it? If so, you may move onto the final round of the game. If not, please get out of here before I call the cops for trespassing somewhere that you don’t belong.
Look very closely and you will see, the beginning point of the mighty Mississippi.
I fully expect all of you to fail on this one, so assuming I’m correct, congratulations! You all lose. If you somehow got lucky and stumbled into a victory, don’t get too cocky, because we’ll play again soon, and it’s not going to be quite so easy. I would say that I hope you all enjoyed the game, but I don’t. I hope it was horrible and frustrating and you are still looking back at the picture trying to find the ornaments. Have a good weekend.
