This Week's Riddle
A giant stands upon a rise
Not blinded yet he has no eyes.
On calm days will he stand at rest
Like madman though come the tempest
Points at the sky and then straight down
Left and right and all around
Grinding grain he'll never eat
Or lifting water beneath his feet.
(answer is one word)
