Well, since we're very good with this whodunnit thing, I decided to launch this little game here.
It's pretty simple. I am someone (person, cartoon, book character, whatever) and everyone else can have a guess at who I am.
The one who guesses it has the next round, and we'll try to guess on him/her.
I hope this works. :-)
To start, I'll give you all one hint: I'm a real person.

Are you a politician?

Apr-17-2013 12:56

'Fraid not, no. ;-)

It is:

A male.
A human.
Born on Earth.
Definitely a real person.
Has had at least one statue of him erected.

It is not:

A female.
From an otherworldly place.
A mythical character.
Considered sexy or svelte. (Still laughin' at that one!! ;-)
A politician. (Same comment above applies. ;-)

So not an actor, or a politician? A terrorist? Is he from heaven? Just asking, I dunno, your LOL comments have set me thinking...congrats for setting in motion something that never happens :P

Apr-18-2013 06:06

Are you still alive?

Apr-18-2013 07:01

Are you American?

Apr-18-2013 20:29

Is there a statue of you in the U.S.?

Were you born before the year 1800?

You keep using the word "erected" is that a clue? ;)

My apologies to Missy.

I hope you all get done by wednesday. i'm not sure i can handle all this excitement in anne's place. L

Thank you, again, Luc, for letting the cat outta the bag. Turkey. ;-)

Sorry again, people, it's been a rather crazy week.

So. ;-)

No, Bela, he's not an actor, a politician, or a terrorist. ;-)

There are those who would say that all people come from heaven (I happen to be one of those said people ;-). Fortunately for you, many would also consider our guy to be "from heaven" in more than just a metaphysical sense. So the answer to your question for that one is "YES!!" ;-D

And I'm very glad to finally get the gray cells goin' again. I think. ;-)

No, Francesca, I'm sorry, but our mystery guy is not still alive. ;-)

Now for Daenerys. I am American, yes. ;-) But our mystery man is not. (I know, that was bad. But I just couldn't resist. Sorry, Daenerys. ;-)

Sophie, there may very well be a statue of him in the U.S. But I've never heard of one, sorry. (I'd probably count that as a no, Sophie. ;-) I did see statues of him all over the place where I grew up though. (Small clue for ya there. ;-)

Here we go again.... In this case, No, IIIIII wasn't born before 1800. But HHHEEE WAS born before 1800, yes. (I know, I'm obnoxious and terrible. I was also sleep-deprived when I wrote this. ;-)

I keep using the copy-and-paste thing on my computer. That, and I had a bad (and not unusual) case of brain-freeze when I first answered that question about a statue. So No, there's no clue behind my word choice (or lack of it ;-).

Bring tuna, Sophie. She's been cranky all week. ;-D

So for a wrap-up: ;-)

The Mystery Person is:

A male.
A human.
Born on Earth.
Definitely a real person.
Has had at least one statue of him erected.
Comes "from heaven."
Was born before 1800.

It is not:

A female.
From an otherworldly place.
A mythical character.
Considered sexy or svelte. (Still laughin' at that one!! ;-)
A politician. (Same comment above applies. ;-)
An actor. (Ditto. ;-)
A terrorist. (Double ditto. ;-D
Not currently alive.
Not American.
Does not have a statue placed in the U.S. (as far as I know).

You're on the right track, guys. Keep goin'!! ;-D

Were you born ... sorry, was HE born more than 500 years ago? Was he born more than 1000 years ago? Was he born more than 2000 years ago? Was he European?
