Title: Etiquette
Post by Noke Lieu on Apr 6th, 2004, 12:56am
So, whilst raven's fiddling around with his innards, I shall give his format a go (with a healthy dose of rhyme)....


Actors demand one, causing a commotion.
---
A violent strike, soothe it with a lotion
---
Cancelled charge, simplifies notion.
---
Group of animals, but not in the ocean.

Some thoughts...

1 - Multimillion dollar contracts while us schmucks actually work hard for our money  ;)

2 - I'm thinking bruise, or possibly a bug bite of some sort, could also be rash(I think that is a homonym)

3 - Maybe void

4 - A herd maybe (like heard)

Progress, but more to come...

You want animals... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_collective_nouns_by_collective_term_A-K)

Okay... Its subtly different to Raven's style.
Yes each line's answer is a homonym.
However, one line is a bit kinky. The answer is still a homonym.
And the individual answers all run together to make a phrase.
Which ties nicely into the title.

I realised this morning,the title isn't a homonym- sorry about that.

For the animals, stick thee to thine ungulates...[hide] just like Cathos did[/hide] ;)

Okay then, I believe the answer is ::[hide] Seen but not heard [/hide]::  8)
