| well i for one thought this teaser was a bit simple the whole "i'm tied up and made to carry 10 nails" and "I follow your many trails" give it away. in other words, ITS TO DANG EASY! sheesh |

| They're called eyelets. If you wanted the teaser to actually make sense, then you should have used 'we' instead of 'I'. |

| Columbia - Toe Nails!!!! Clark1 is right about I & we and the eyelets.
Extremely simple riddle - not joke - had it after the first two lines. |

| At least no one is mad that I did not add a hint to this one. 8^) Good points about the eyelets and we vs. I. Eyelets is a better term for the holes but one definition for "eye" is a small hole or loop (as in a needle) which I think would cover a shoe and it works better in the riddle. As far as the I vs. We issue, well I guess I was just thinking of my shoes as a single unit or team and not as individuals since I always wear them together. So I thought that they would share a mind if they could think and talk as the riddle implies. Of course our shoes can not think and talk so we may never know if they are of a single mind or have split personalities. I will let that issue to be debated for eons by monks on some distant mountain top. But I will concede that the split personality theory for intelligent shoes is certainly a possibility and no less valid than my own single mind theory. Maybe both should be taught in schools from now on. 8^) |

| it was easy, but how do shoes have many eyes and 2 tounges i only count one under the laces. |

| One tongue per shoe but most people have two shoes which is how you get two tongues per pair of shoes. Many eyes, or eyelets, per pair of shoes that have laces. |

| Liked it. The image of a monster with lots of eyes and two tongues following me around and not smelling very nice made it more fun. Was a tad easy to figure out, but just right for my attention span on these teasers. |

| I am glad you guys find this one fun. I can not believe that it has been 5 years since I wrote that one.
Yea, it was not meant to be hard, just a bit of fun like my riddle "Off the Wall" which I think is very funny. I do have some hard teasers but they are mostly science ones.
Maybe I should write some more sometime soon. |

| You could get around the I vs We problem by changing the answer to a PAIR of shoes. |

| I thought it was good. Actually shoes and boots used to have nails in them. That's how the sole and the heel were attached. |
