Call my name  
« on: Jan 15th, 2007, 3:39am »
Quote Quote Modify Modify

My skin is yellow
My breath is grey
My eyes are shiny
If you call my name
I might come
But hardly ever if it’s raining
 
What am I?

Most of those characteristics, amazingly, fit me, if it's on a cold night and I can see my own breath.

My first hint à la WTF to the answer instead of the straight answer:  
 
If you find one, you will fare fine.

I believe denis has the answer.  I wish I had seen this riddle sooner.  I see these things every day.  It gets quite taxing.
