Saturday morning 20 Questions?

[short bus president]

This morning I'm thinking about lots of things, including whether or not it's gonna rain, and whether I want to go out to dinner with my dad tonight, and how long it's been since I took the dogs out, and why I haven't muted the sound when Rachel Ray is on the TV in the other room, and trying not to spill my coffee all over my UPS like I did the other day.

But for the sake of the game of 20 questions, I'm thinking of a musician.

Anyone who wants to volunteer to PM me for the answer to keep me honest should feel free to do so.

1. American? (nt)

3. guitarist?

[short bus president]

4. meh - I've got a conflict here

should I be a bastard and just say "yes, guitarist" when I could, technically, honestly answer "yes" to that question about anyone who plays the guitar, whether or not that's anything they're known for? Or should I be a bastard and ask questions like this to cloud the issue and make people wonder why in the hell they're evn bothering to play this game with the scavery likes of me, anyway?

Use The Force, Luke.

5. your Spanish is more coherent than that

statement! :P

Does he/she normally play the guitar when on stage?

[short bus president]

7. Nah - doesn't normally play guitar on stage

Y mi espanol no es menudo. Hablar la lengua vomitrociousissima!

[ElsewheresDaughter]

6. what genre?

[short bus president]

8. Hey - isn't it supposed to be a "yes or no" question?

I need to consult the manual! Who has the manual?

MY KINGDOM FOR THE MANUAL!!!

[Aiptasia]

9. Just answer...

The question. Don't dance around it like Bush vs. the Abortion issue. Besides, it was "20 questions," not "20 yes or no questions.."

What genre?

[JimmyJazz]

10. Jeez - who pissed on your cheerios?

:P

Oh and SB- that doesn't count as a question --

[short bus president]

11. Dammit. Now I've completely lost control of the game.

I bet the manual would tell me how to handle this! Oh, sweet manual! Why hast thou forsaken me?

:P

[JimmyJazz]

12. if you weren't running around thread

jacking at every opportunity - you might be able to concentrate a bit better and not piss off the players!

[short bus president]

13. I do not jack threads!

"I'm not a Klepper!"

And a bonus question for the first player to identify Mrs. Edith Bunker as the source of that quote. Oh, bother.

[JimmyJazz]

15. how can you say you don't jack threads when

you successfully managed to jack YOUR OWN damn thread! Now - back to the game or I'm taking my toys and going home...

[short bus president]

16. you brought TOYS?!?

OK. I'll be good. Can I play with the red fire engine? Pretty please?

[JimmyJazz]

19. Tinker toys anyone?

oh and yes, you can play with the fire engine

[short bus president]

20. electric tinkertoys?

Where you gonna stick a battery in tinkertoys? They're made of wood, fer chrissake. Or at least they were back in the day. :shrug:

YAY! FIRE ENGINE! :D

[JimmyJazz]

22. OH you meant THOSE kinds of toys - jeez

what have you heard about me?

And more importantly, WHO told you these things?

[short bus president]

24. I know NAH-THINK!

[short bus president]

14. OK, then, my friend the scavery blight of marine aquaria...

The genre is "pop." As in "pop THAT in yer crackpipe and smoke it!" ;-)

[ElsewheresDaughter]

[short bus president]

23. Now THERE'S a musician!

Except every time I hear him I always expect him to say he's got something in his front pocket for me.
