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 ....

Kim

Would you normally find it in the home?

Phil

Normally found in the home? Hmmmm, how pedantic do I want to be. YES, it could normally be found in a home; NO, a home is not the only place it is normally found.

Kim

Is it a measurement device?

Inkspot

Is the vegetable also part of the fluid?

Phil

[Kim] Measurement device? NO
[Inkspot] Is the vegetable also part of the fluid? NO
I think I need to provide a little guidance/clarification. The "manufactured object" does not contain any fluid.

Tuj

Is it edible?

Phil

[Tuj] Edible? NO

Raak

Is it something that you put into a fluid?

Chalky

Is it more likely to have a use in the workplace?

Phil

[Raak] Something that you put into a fluid? NO
[Chalky] More likely to have a use in the workplace? Possibly, but I'd say equally useful at home as at work.

Tuj

Smaller than a toaster?

Phil

[Tuj] Smaller than a toaster? YES

Chalky

Anything to do with sports?

Rosie

Anything to do with cooking?

Tuj

Is the vegetable part alive?

Darren

Is it something one could wear?

Phil

[Chalky] Sport? NO
[Rosie] Cooking? NO
[Tuj] Live vegetable? NO
[Darren] Something one could wear? Hmmm..it has been done, but I'd say NO.

Darren

Is it used to separate something from something else?

irach

A newspaper? (The paper is dead vegetable, the printing ink being a fluid mineral, and newspapers have known to be worn on a couple of occasions, one can use it at home or in the office)
