What is it? Game 86

Is it the all elusive white whole?

Hmmm, the picture is not a picture. There is nothing there, so I will venture this guess: The inside of Paris Hilton’s skull.

“Nothing” comes to mind!!=)

Uh, a polar bear in an arctic blizzard?

Wow, how meta! The picture is a representation of my mind while I try to guess what’s in the picture, i.e. a complete blank.

Visual representation of a slow internet connection.

A ninja who forgot to take the price tag off of his blanket of concealment.

The funniest fail ive ever seen.

It’s called a typo in the hyper link. What do I win?
here’s the actual picture;

Darn you coyote! Why did you have to go into the picture properties?!

A waste of space.

OK, I took the liberty of fixing it. Alex is on Pacific time, and he might have celebrated last night.

Or something.

I can tell right away that this is an instrument of torture.

Hero’s steam engine

it’s a rubbery dog toy.

The pivot ball for the very first Dyson prototype.

It’s a rubber pump impeller.

It is a Guava Bomblet. They were made of thousands of amall steel balls cast into a metal matrix. the little fins helped ompart a spin as they were ‘dispensed’ from their bonb casing. Upon impact they would shatter spreading a nasty spray like buckshot at whomever or whatever was in its way.
The blue paint indicates it was part of an inert training bomb.

It’s a Bomb Live Unit (BLU) more commonly known as a submunition. Without measurements you really can’t guess which one it is but I’ll say BLU-26 (Practice/Inert)

DRYER BALL

Its a cluster bomblet…..nasty little bastards.

Something very evil and sinister for sure.

Hmm ok, just googled it, its a cluster bomblet.

An impeller for a hydraulic pump.

Now that I know what it is, what should I do with the one I brought home last summer?

Security bolt? (twist it on, but can’t twist it off)

Bocci Ball/ Lawn Bowling Ball

I have no clue of what it is – but it WAS a broken link.

it’s a screwball

its a cat.

cluster bomb.

It’s the new Bakugan thing all the kids are raving about

Potatomaster has the best guess! Haha!

hand grenade i think. i have a dead one sitting on my bookshelf…

As said, it’s a cluster munition. If I remember correctly, the “fins” are called flutes. Given that each bomblet is self contained and not wired to the main device, the flutes serve to arm the bomblet via centripetal force. After the bomblets are ejected the flutes cause the bomblets to spin.
