44. I was thinking a normal needle
Edited on Sun Aug-20-06 11:46 AM by neebob
that fell out of someone's pocket or something. A farmer's wife could have left it in his overalls, and that's how it got into the haystack.

In order to be like a god, the needle needs to have extraordinary powers, like talking (in which case it could easily call attention to itself) or sewing by itself or something like that. How about an intelligent needle? And people tell different stories about its history and think it can do different extraordinary things.

Oh, and it's reported to stab people it doesn't like and dive back into the haystack, without being seen.
