OK, here is the rules:

We post a picture and the one first to guess it right will have to post the next picture in this thread. With a tie (two guessing the same thing, posting at the same time-stamp gets to post a picture each).

To save bandwidth loading this page, I suggest we link to the page instead of embedd it in the post.

I'll start it off with a simple one:
What is this?

It looks to me like something in the animal kingdom regurgitating, yuk!

You been messing around the back of your old gas stove or somth'n?

I see a steel pipe and an old corroded copper wire...but what it is, I have no clue.

It does look like a wire of some sort?

Does it have to do with a refridgerator?

5 down and to you Bennet Cerf.

It looks like the cylinder on an old adding machine.

I think it's an ice covered piece of rope along the docks...

Ok, it's a dried up and leaking poinsettia plant stem...

or...

...you finally emptied out your vacuum cleaner and found that licorice stick you misplaced last summer...

It looks like an old cloth-insulated electrical wire.

And it looks like it's been in a fire, but not recently, as the spiders have had ample time to build some egg-coccoon webs on it, and the little spiders have already hatched and gone.

I think Diana got it 'write'! It is also a mono-spaced font only writer. It is also in need of a good cleaning. Possibly because it is used for printing forms and gets a lot of daily (ab)use. It is also probably quite old, that bent wire was usually around to prevent the flying keys (hammers!) from hitting in the wrong areas. Many typists could hit the keys faster than the mechanism could fling them onto the paper/platten (even with a QWERTY keyboard!).

It's a tiny piece of driftwood hung up on the ladder where we come out of the water at high tide. It is a really Macro picture of a little hunk of wood, with a tiny tendril of seaweed stuck on the higher end, with water dripping off the right(other side) end of it.
You can't see the feet of the kids fishing off the dock about 3 feet above.

I thought I made it easy and it took until Diana to figure it out. YOU GO GIRL!!!!

OK, now it's your turn to come up with a tricky picture.
