Paper weight.

Thanks for putting up another one of those, Kerry! :)

I'm going with paperweight also - there seems to be a lot of depth.  These are a lot of fun. 

Thanks, Kerry!  :)

YAY!!! Thanks Kerry! I was just thinking about posting another one of these the other day! :D

That looks like a rock dropping into a lake, but since that isn't a choice up there in the list, I'm guessing it's a paper weight. It reminds me a bit of the paper weight my great grandmother gave me just before she died. I'll take a picture of it and post it sometime soon. :D

Nice thread Kerry! Thanks for posting it!

The first thing I thought of was an EYE.....so I have voted glass eye.

And when I voted I see that someone else has voted glass eye too, but hasnt identified themselves.

And yes, thanks Kerry, these "What is it's" are always fun, thanks for starting them up again.

"Paper weight" appears to be the most popular choice so far, with "glass eye" running a close second. Bet you're wondering where I got my hands on a glass eye!  :o

Good luck, everyone!  :D

Well you do work in a hospital........that actually influenced my vote for the glass eye.

Haha, I can't recall that I ever said I worked in the Ophthalmic Prosthetics Dept. of that hospital, however!  ;)   ;)   ;)   ;D

Hmm, I thought glass eye, but there's no sclera (the white part) surrounding the blue.  So, I voted for paper weight.
