A Riddle…

by micah on December 1, 2005

Last night at work (TGI Friday’s) business was very slow, such that some of the servers would come up to the front door (where I was) out of shear bordom. So, attempting to be helpful, I made up a riddle to keep their minds busy. Here is the riddle I made up:

Increadibly fast but apparently stationary;
Relatively tiny but apparently huge;
Always partially lit but regularly dark;
Liquid-like inside but solid outside

Anybody want to guess what the answer is?

Just out of curiousity, did any of the people at work get it?

Very wonderfully done, Linnea. I congratulate you. Even at work the one server that was trying to figure it out eventually gave up.
