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 ....

Phil

Should I pay much heed to the audience's laughter earlier?

Projoy

Is it something vehicles can use?

Rosie

(Phil) YES. Shurely one always should. They aren't a collection of wannabe Machiavellis as far as I know. (Projoy) Used by vehicles? YES (in some cases), a literal but unhelpful truth.

Phil

Is water involved?

Dujon

Does this 'thing' enclose or partly enclose an open space?

Rosie

(Phil) Water involved? Very much so, Des. (© M Lawrenson.)*audience now hyperventilating*
(Dujon) Enclose an open space? YES, in a sense, but beware.

Projoy

Is ice involved?

Rosie

(Projoy) Ice? You're getting colder.

Phil

Is steam involved?

Rosie

(Phil) Nothing to do with steam, believe it or not.:-)

Phil

A levee?

Rosie

A LEVEE it is! Well done, Phil. I'm afraid that makes it your shout.

Phil

Wow! That was a bit of a shot in the dark, but it was also the result of considered deduction of all previous answers. To be honest, I'm quite chuffed with getting that. I very nearly put "dam", but that would not be popularly associated with N America.

Right, your next AVMA is

ANIMAL or ABSTRACT

Yankee?

[irach] Yankee? NO

Is it art?

[IS,P!] is it art? Hmmmm....the Animal sense is not, the abstract sense is. *a little applause and a few whispers in the audience*

I Say, Porter!

[sounds like porn...] Is it deceased (e.g. pickled)

Uncle Korky

Is it something as straight-forward as a picture of an animal...?
