I move around, seldomly making noises. I do not breathe or live. My body is bilateral, I am not a sport, but people play with my ball.

Yes, Rip Torn, correct.

Aha! OK. Um, a clue. Let's Pretend I'm Steve.
"A clue? Do you see a clue? Where?"
"Oh, right! There's a clue on that sand over there. You know what we need, our handy dandy ... NOTEBOOK."
"Let's see, how do you draw sand?"
to be continued. (The clue is SAND)

Well Phosphorus has been used in washing powders to make your whites whiter, and is next to Silicon on the periodic table, which is a constituent of sand, and, urm, not far away from those is Chlorine which is used to bleach paper?!

I googled "Phosphorous, silica, borax, sandwich" and didn't seem to come up with anything. Does "Let's Pretend I'm Steve," LPIS, have some clue value? Sandwich and silicon suggest some sort of semiconductor, alliteratively speaking.Chi Meson said:

Zooby: "Steve" is from "Blues clues." All i know of poular culture these days comes from "Nick Jr."
Sandwich. Tis wafer thin. Think about it in the light of day.
