I pulled up an old list of clues of mine I made quite some time ago. A sampling:

5 letters: A mouse may do it: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]CLICK[/color]

6: It may crawl down your back: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]SPIDER[/color]

6: It has flare: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]CANDLE[/color]

6: You'll often see them in books: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]CHECKS[/color]

5: Some of them have sharp teeth: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]COMBS[/color]

8: It will keep your place: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]BOOKMARK[/color]

9: They're often fired: [color=\"#FFFFFF\"]TORPEDOES[/color]

No risque business here, I'd believe...

Once this list gets a bit bigger, I'm gonna paste all the clues into one text file and post it here.

I'm sure it'll be useful to someone someday.
