It's not class or chemistry... It wouldn't work if it were just plastic, but yes it's a noun -- it's a thing. Has it been EC and The Imposters related? Yes. I've already told you what it rhymes with, and given another clue about a scientific attribute of it.

What does it do?

It makes sound by distorting an electromagnetic wave.

It's a theremin.

what does it do?

A lot, considering how little it moves.

bambooneedle · Post by **bambooneedle** » Mon Aug 18, 2003 8:22 pm

Didn't see your post.. LTZ's question had me scratching my head figuring out how not to give it away.

YES!!! A theremin. Rhymes with vitamin.

woah bamboo, I think I only read the first half of that huge last clue.

doh.

Isn't it cool when EC stabs the neck of his guitar towards the theramin?

Sweet.

The game is resurrected for the weekend.

The noun is fixed. Someone please be so kind as to ask the pertenent questions first.

Ask them all at once. The noun is fixed. The clues are few. Ask the right question, and I'll give one to you.

Tell me the noun, and we'll party down...

Is it the Hoover Factory ?

What does it do in it's spare time?

Does it have to be so cruel to be callous?

A rope leash · Post by **A rope leash** » Thu Aug 21, 2003 10:30 pm

No, Storm, but that goddamn song has been stuck in my head all week!

It might be cruel or callous in the right measure. It has no spare time that I am aware of.

Is it a BUSY BODY?

does it eat fish?

No more random guessing.

Is it something that would be likely to be found in Nick Lowe's hands ?

A rope leash · Post by **A rope leash** » Fri Aug 22, 2003 7:48 am

It is not a fish-eating busy body, but it could be said that it is something that might be found in Nick Lowe's hands.

Few clues, few clues.

I like where your mind's at Gilli.

Since it is assumed that the noun is Elvis related, that halted noun on your tongue would have been appropriate, especially given all the talk over on the Elvis gossip thread.

Nick's only human.

Maybe I was washed out
Like a lip-print on his shirt
See, I'm only human

Is it a shirt???

You can please yourself, but somebody's gonna get it...

Not a shirt, not a flirt.

Hey, Shabbs, there a game right here on this board! It's called READ THE DOG'S MIND. It's real easy. First, you ask the dog simple questions about what noun is stuck in his head. You know, questions like "is it a person place or thing?", or "is it animal vegetable or mineral?". (But don't ask what is it or with what does it rhyme). When the noun is said, the dog will then throw a minor party. The game is moronic and burdonsome, but it is of vital importance to the Elvis Costello V.2 message forum as it keeps the dog preoccupied and therefore less likely bite someone's leg, or piss on the coffee table.

*takes a deep breath, releases it with satisfied happiness*

Come on , now, it's not a shirt, but it is a "thing", so I give that out because I'm feeling pleasant and I want to party.

You probably deserve punishment, but instead, I give you this:

Is it a common household object?

A rope leash · Post by **A rope leash** » Sat Aug 23, 2003 2:53 pm

It's hard to say that it is an object at all, but I suppose it is. Around most houses, you don't see much of it, I'd say, and in almost every situation it could only be seen in association with another object.

It does exist. Ask a question get a clue. It's not a button, but the button could be this, and so could the shirt.

is it Dust???
