Title: I can be long
Post by maryl on Jun 2^nd, 2003, 3:17pm

I can be long, or I can be short.
I can be grown, and I can be bought.
I can be painted, or left bare.
I can be round, or square.
What am I?

I am not going to obfuscate the answer as I am unsure of it: [hide]face[/hide]?

It's not that but that's not too far off-dig a little deeper.

Damn, I have a bunch of answers like head, face, hair, beard, and teeth that fit some of them perfectly but none of them fit all the clues well.

Could it be a pimple?

You BUY pimples?! :o If you tell me your address, I've got some nieces and nephews with a good stock of healthy ones that I'm sure they would be willing to part with. ;)
