mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

ImNotJohn

Is it a (culinary) dish?

irach

Does it grow underground?

Raak

Porridge?

Rosie

Is it a root vegetable?

(Raak) re Tycho Brahe - I didn't know that. What is also not too well known is that he died of a burst bladder and the consequent peritonitis. At a boozy banquet with the King of Denmark he dared not leave the table until His Maj had got up despite a certain degree of urgency. Awful.

Rosie

Does it come in a tin?

Just seen irach's question, so my previous one was superfluous. Tut, tut!
