His Eminence

jellyfish

still not there. it is an odd dedication as i said but something which a lot of people still hold dear.

I

jelly.

I

fish

Not so sure about fish jelly though..

Anyway, is she talking about GUNS?

that is the best guess so far. but still not quite there.

one last clue. i am carrying what she dedicated it to right now (and i do carry it most of the time).

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 3:35 pm

in fact sod that, here's a better clue:
His Eminence is no longer allowed to love this in certain circumstances, i can still love this but only for a few more months.

It may be a better clue, but I'm still flummoxed.

What am I not allowed to love? Protestants? Catholics? Small boys? Dogtanian?

What could you be carrying??? Rosary beads? Paracetamol? WU dictionary? Condoms?

are you pulling my plonker YE?

it is something which you have to do to be a journalist (but that is a crappy clue)

Brown-nose, write lies, get pissed at lunchtimes, name-drop, skive, hound ordinary decent folk, take back-handers etc...?

all of the above

still not right though.

okay there is a line in the song about flowers wilting in the garden when "you" left. because she stopped going into the garden as a direct result of "you" leaving. she also says her doctor is a fool and that she can now eat her dinner in a fancy restaunt all of which relate to giving something up.

Is it drink or fags?

Ah, cigarettes. It all makes sense now. Unless she has bowel trouble and constantly wets herself, but that would only half make sense. Do journalists have to wet their pants then to pass their exams? Anything resembling the truth and a dry chair means the candidate fails?

Actually, CR probably has the right idea.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 4:18 pm

yep, it is dedicated to "le pack of fags". all yours Your Eminence.

i need a lie down now. have a goood weekend.

Thanks. Pleasant smoking UP!

Right. Very simple question, what is a "nocebo" ?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 4:36 pm

i can't believe anyone would want one but inguistically it might be an inert drug which makes the taker think they are getting worse.

Well done, it's the opposite of a placebo.

Back to you, unless you've buggered off for the weekend, in which case it'll be a quiet old quiz forum.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 4:47 pm

crikey, i thought that would be way off.
i'm only here for 10 mins or so, need to do some brown-nosing, fabrication and harrasment. i have been busy pissing on my chair all day.
if anyone wants to do a Q for the weekend feel free. have good ones everyone.
