Guess Who I Saw Last Night

“Go on, guess. 20 Questions style: yes or no type questions only. Think you can guess?”

“One hint: the person does not post on TT....”

“Brad Pitt? No, I'm pretty sure he posts...”

“was she hot?”

“Reese Witherspoon?”

“Santa!”

“Satan!”

“Bigger than a bread box?”

“Jay Leno?”

“Give us a hint...... where were you?”

“No, not applicable, no, no, no, no, no. OK, you've used up 7 questions already and you've gotten pretty much nowhere? Haven't you people ever played 20 questions?!




PS to aero: Pouring rain here right now - expecting up to 6 inches of rain, plus wind, for the XC nationals tomorrow....”

“Sorry Hodge, has to be a yes or no type question.”

“OK, firts the basics...

1) Female?”

“Okay.... male or female?”

“bacpac (he doesn't post on TT anymore)”

“Simul-post.... that only counts as one question”

“Your mama?”

“My mamma?..... scratch that !!”

“I'm not playing your silly little reindeer games”

“OK. I'll help a bit here. Aero asked "Was she hot?" and the answer was "Not applicable." You should be able to conclude that the person is male. I won't count these questions toward your total, so you're still at 7 and now you know it was a man. Next question.”

“is he a celebrity?”

“Wasn't me.”

“Aero: I would answer yes to that.”

“Is he an actor?”

“Shangri La?”

“So who did ya see?????

8o”

“No. That would be "what".”

“You're daddy?”

“It wasn't Bernie Law because he was having a sit-down the the Pope!”

“Was he a musician?”

“Howard Stern?”

“That confounded bridge?”

“do i know him?”

“D'oh!
That would be another "what".”

“I'm not playing your silly little reindeer games”

“Chili: no.
HPM: no.

That's 10 Q's so far. (I ignored some of the others, hee hee.)”

“Were you eating mushrooms at the time?”

“is he a sports celebrity?”

“is he black?”

“Summary so far:
Male
Celebrity
Not an actor
Not a musician

OK, I'll ignore the silly initial guesses, so you've used 4 questions.”

“Colin Fletcher?”

“Aero: Yes and yes. Very good, you're learning.”

“did you have to look into the mirror? (why did you ignore my question? it was a yes or no question) cheater!!!!”

“Does his sport use a round ball?”

“Martyb, seeing someone on the back of a cereal box doesn't count as meeting them!”

“Sorry Gem, I did not have to look in the mirror. Up to 7 real questions used now.”

“Aero, Yes. 8 Q's so far.”

“O.J. Simpson?”

“Does he play on a field or a court?”

“News Personality / Pundit?”
