I am a protector. I sit on a bridge.

One person can see right through me while others wonder what I hide.

What am I?

      Tsk. This is an online forum. He's clearly the guy holding the leash of the polarized troll sitting in front of him!

    Lol, sorry I ruined it for everyone else.

    I figured it wasn't an original riddle so I searched Google: "I am a protector. I sit on a bridge."

    OK you riddlers, try this one...

    I have no weight but have many shapes and sizes.
    I am made of nothing but can be formed by most anything.
    You can't really see me but you can see where I am.
    What am I?

        Not the answer the riddle calls for, but I like the way you think. You've earned a gold star. Unfortunately, there are no gold star emoticons, so you'll have to make do with a yellow smiley face.

        Not the answer I was looking for, but it's a good answer just the same.

    Um... I meant without going off the site to find one. As long as you did it though, I hereby officially award you with the gold star you found.

    Sal nailed it. And cracked a mighty fine joke in the process. For that, I hereby award Sal a gold star as well. That gold star, and a couple dollars, will get you a cheap cup of coffee and a day old donut.

    You're welcome.

      It was in an earlier post (#11) but it's just showing a broken image icon now. Looks like Paul already cashed his in for that cheap cup of coffee and day old donut.

      Laurence,
      I don't see a gold star. Am I missing something?
      Let me guess... You're using Safari?

      I don't see it on the iPad or in Safari on my desktop machine. Shows in Firefox and IE, though.
