5. One of those infrared heat things. They can go on screen porches to

I suppose I should widen my repertoire of questions eventually....too busy refreshing my memory of Clarke's 2010

8. Does it require electricity or batteries?

MusicLover

5. No electricity or batteries (therefore, not infared heat things)

MusicLover

I'm glad Queen is here to take this in a new direction, Susan is going down the wrong road, I should have said to keep the questions general first. I'm sorry.

queenmomcat

That always did strike me as a sensible strategy for Twenty Questions, kind of like putting your X/Os in the corners of the ticktacktoe grid. Though I wouldn't mind a bit of gardening!

Hmm.

6. primarily rigid/hard?

susan3

ok..just thinking out load, a clock is functional and helpful, road map, bug spray, ( having trouble with ants these days) , flashlight....restarting anyone's brain.....I like talking amongst ourselves:)

We already did clock.....

queenmomcat

I'd point out too that watering cans can be found (used) inside....

7. Is it made out of glass?

MusicLover

6. Yes, primarily rigid and hard.

7. Yes, partially made out of glass.

(The outside/inside comment was referring to walking stones and garden kneeling thing - that's why I didn't answer them - I was not certain about Susan's numbering system either.)

Loveroflife

Hi everyone! Just a quick noontime check-in.

10. Is it primarily flat or cylindrical?

queenmomcat

Hmm.

Normally smaller than a breadbox. Can be found inside or outside. Does not require electricity/batteries. Primarily rigid/hard.

(pauses to turn page)

Partially of glass. Not cylindrical. Not a container. No numbers on surface.

MusicLover

10. No not flat or cylindrical. (rules out window, frame, drinking glass, bottle).

queenmomcat

OK, now, just to set the record straight: I did not know the answer to #10. swear.

11. primarily of a single material other than glass?

MusicLover

11. Not certain I am answering properly but normally consists of 3 materials one of which is glass,

queenmomcat

That'll do. Hmm. (Is there anyone else on the boards just now?)

MusicLover

I haven't seen the other ladies who normally play this.

MusicLover

I saw that you had said not cylindrical and I just laughed because I thought she's right.

ceanna

hmmmm! Interesting "thing." I'm not coming up with any question to ask, even after re-reading all the clues!! Long week, and I think it makes me "clueless."

Loveroflife

I thought it was me only, Ceanna

12. Is one of the materialsmetal?

MusicLover

12. Yes, I think always some metal.

queenmomcat

All the things I can think of are either flat or cylindrical!

MusicLover

There are at least two things that you are forgetting that I can think of, one is the thing and the other is something else. I can't give you a hint without giving it away. I bet you will come up with it.

queenmomcat

Next direction of questioning might be "what is it used for?" but trying to come up with questions that are primarily yes/no.

MusicLover

Look around your house for objects that have glass besides the flat and cylindrical items....hmmm.

13. Is there more glass, as far as surface area, than metal

MusicLover

13. I would say yes most of the time.
