My body’s taper’d fine and neat

I’ve but one eye, yet am complete;

You’d judge me, by my equipage,

The greatest warrior of the age;

For when you have survey’d me round,

Nothing but steel is to be found;

Yet men I ne’er was known to kill,

Though ladies’ blood I often spill.

What Am I? If you can figure it out, post your answer in the comments section below. Will reveal submissions/answers on Wednesday.

Here’s a great new flash puzzle designed by SimpleAndy; it’s called I/O. Whereas the unusual jigsaw-like puzzle Olla Podrida works and tests your visual-spatial skills, I/O relies heavily on intuition and creative thinking. Enjoy!

Mother Thrifty and her daughter Dollie each drive 30 ducks to the market. Mother Thrifty is eager for a trade, and hurries on with her 30, and reaches the market early when ducks are in demand. She sells two for one dollar; but Dollie dawdles along the road, and when she arrives the market is supplied so she only receives one dollar for every three.

On the way home the mother says, "I got a dollar for two, and you a dollar for three, which makes two dollars for five ducks; but sixty is twelve times five, so we must have twelve times two dollars or twenty-four," but on counting their money they found they had twenty-five dollars.

Why this discrepancy?
