Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game
help
The chairperson selects an object/idea/whatever and announces whether it's animal, vegetable, mineral, and/or abstract. The others have to ask questions to figure out what it is. Whomever guesses the object correctly is given the chair for the next round; repeat ad nauseam.

Is it a Christmas Tree?
[Btd] No. But I suppose it could be used as one.
Douglas fir?
Scots Pine?
*Sings* "Ohhh, aahm a lumberjack and aahm OK, aah sleep all night and aah work all day!"
Spruce?
[snorgle,Kim,Raak] - No, to all of you. Strange that is the second Monty Python reference (clue?)
Holly?
As in 'Holly Grail' and 'Hollywood Bowl". ... :-)
the Larch? The larch.
How to recognise trees from quite far away.

The tallest tree in the forest?

Well done.
Goddammit it, Snorgle must have it. Ghfhj's guess was pretty good though.
Episode 12B. How to recognise different types of trees from quite a long way away. No. 1. The Larch. The Larch. - congrats to snorgle! Take it away . . . . .
Animal
the monty python hint gave it away, really..now, let's see..
Human?
Warm blooded?
Is it a living, entity with polymorhing abilities?
Moving right along to Red Dwarf.
...or is it something made from a dead animal?
Is it dairy?
To eliminate confusion as early as possible, or at least to try to! :)
Raak - yes; plump - yep; Inkspot - no and I'll throw in the fact that it doesn't have 4 eyebrows either for free; Inkspot - ugh, no!;ZK - no.
Is it Michael Howard?
Male?
Presently alive?
Some told me recently that there are currently more people living than have ever lived. Can this be true?
zk - no; kim - yes
kim - click here re:population for some info..
Four legged?
Spurned!
Oh sure, ignore my question, go on, I don't care. I hate this game anyway.
*sniff*
Are they lsted on celebdaq?would you recommend buying shares in them?
Is the person known as a politician?
Carefully phrased to be independent of whether the person is alive or dead.
British?
Riff (sorry! it was late!) Yes. Inkspot - yes (and no cheating and getting 2 questions in one!) Breadmaster - nope.
Are they a 'singer'?
By which I mean they get money to sing, not that they necessarily have any talent...
An entertainer, in the broadest sense?
i.e. including Frank Skinner, Nickel-arse Parsons etc.
American?
Is English his (their) first language?
Is it a member of the British Royal Family?
European?
Another spurnee
What about my last question?
Osama bin Laden?
David Blaine?
Arnie?
Ibid - no. Rosie - no. BM - no. Kayl - yes. Inkspot - no. Raak - you want to ask it again? Not Bin Laden, no. ZK - nope. barbacoa - nope.
It's not you, is it?
barbacoa - no.
Nice try, though..
BTW, when a said they're not an entertainer, I meant in the sense of Frank Skinner, Nicholas Parsons ,etc. All round entertainers. That's all.
A sportsman?
[snorgle] "Is the person known as a politician?" I don't see any answer to that question, or anyone else asking it. I notice Btd's "European?" has also gone unanswered.
Is he regularly on television?
I'd be very happy if it was one of the Knights who say NI but I fear it won't be.
A movie star?
Is he Australian?
Someone in the world of Pop?...and would they cost more than £1.50 a share?
One question but in two parts ...honest guv ;)
Raak-I'm not deliberately not answering, you know! Therefore - not a politician, not European, not regularly on tv, not australian, not a popstar and yes, Riff, he is a movie star!
sorry for ignoring you plump - not four-legged!
am presuming then - an american movie star?
Keanu Reeves?
ooh, yes please!
Chalky - YES! But ZK- he's canadian, I thought everyone knew that! Honestly, some people..
It's your go now, Chalky. I saw Matrix Revolutions yesterday. Am sorely disappointed! Action scenes good, characterisation awful, ending complete cop-out. At least I got to look at cute Keanu for long periods though. We actually waited until the end of the credits (through all that outrageously loud dance music) on the off chance something else would happen. I said "That is the suckiest ending ever! It's like the end of The Empire Strikes Back, but without another part to make up for it. It's just never explained." GRR!

Audience goes wild for Chalky, whoops, cheers, outrageous hand gestures, sausages, etc.

*coughing*
*Whilst cheering rapturously* would like to point out the order in which the entries came...I'm sure I knew he was canadian anyway. aren't all the stars canadian? eric mccormack is (I think), so is michael j fox, paul gross, mike meyers....
Z.K. - it was simulposted, and you were wrong anyway..
Dan Aykroyd, William Shatner, John Candy...
* a bit embarrassed*
I thankyou. That was somewhat akin to a lurker's victory. I haven't been around much this weekend, just popped in to catch up, hazarded a wild guess, and there you go ....
[snorgs] Yes - I thought Matrix Rev was a pile of cack, but at least I didn't fall asleep during it [which I did during Matrix Reloaded].
I'll post a new thingy tomorrow, if you don't mind. I HAD lined up a person, but we've just had one, so I'll attempt to think of something sparklingly original to brighten up a Monday morning :-)
It's Monday morning ....
... and time for an * A B S T R A C T * thing
