I had the first correct answer...until Letti started asking for specifics.
Oy is/was naked. ;) :lol:

okay, who skinned oy? :)

MonteGss
05-28-2008, 06:37 PM
:P
So, in order for me to be naked, I have to shave all my body hair? :P

Anyway though, I seem to remember Cort being with his ladies having a grand old time in the brothel when he died from poison. I'm sure Daggers is right....if we have to go with a human answer. ;)

The Lady of Shadows
05-28-2008, 09:04 PM

ZoNeSeeK
05-28-2008, 09:59 PM
I think times should be more simple like that, you know - being able to go to your first date naked and stand up unabashedly with a stiffy. And not get decapitated of course :P

Letti

Letti

The Lady of Shadows
05-30-2008, 11:58 AM

ZoNeSeeK
05-30-2008, 04:11 PM
He was a roan gelding and was 5 years old ?

The Lady of Shadows
05-30-2008, 04:32 PM
say sorry but that is incorrect.

you are the weakest link. goodbye.

:)

razz
05-30-2008, 06:13 PM
well i know Pylon was 2 years old...
random fact: a pylon is a transmission tower, rather like The Dark Tower itself

razz
05-30-2008, 06:16 PM
is it a Rosillo?

The Lady of Shadows
05-30-2008, 06:17 PM

razz
05-30-2008, 06:21 PM

well, you're doing better than me. i am drawing an utter blank. :(

damn razzle dazzle anyway for breaking my streak. :)

i think i made a mistake. what was your first answer. just tell me that.

BedOfRoses
05-31-2008, 07:48 AM
My first answer was The Werewolves of End-World. I couldn't find another title for it.

razz
05-31-2008, 08:47 AM
hmm...don't remember that one, but i guess it's good enough. the other was The Dark Tower VI: The Creeping Shadow.
the feather be your's.

BedOfRoses
05-31-2008, 09:07 AM
Interesting! Where did you find your answer, Razz? I found mine at the end of DT VI, in the journal section.

BedOfRoses
05-31-2008, 09:15 AM
Next question, and likely an easy one:

What brand of cigarettes did Jimmie Polino steal from his mother's dresser drawer?

Greta Garbo, Doris Day, Marilyn Monroe?

Were they all from that era?

jayson
06-03-2008, 04:19 AM
One was Edith Bunker bc this is when Jake realizes Blaine screwed up. Cannot recall who the other two were offhand.

Brice
06-03-2008, 07:41 AM
It was Marilyn Monroe, Raquel Welch, and Edith Bunker.

MonteGss
06-03-2008, 07:50 AM

I guess I'd take Marilyn...even though she was dumb as rocks. :)

Brice
06-03-2008, 07:52 AM
Thanks! After ladysai confirms I guess someone can go ahead with a question. I won't be here anymore till tomorrow. I must sleep.

The Lady of Shadows
06-03-2008, 05:06 PM

since we are all throwing down in the best fight scene thread....


Explain in detail the fight in Tull.

fernandito
06-05-2008, 08:09 AM
The trap is sprung.
Roland whirls on his heels and his guns beat their atonal music.
They came at him with pitchforks and knives- women, men, and children.
Roland moves like a dancer to avoid the flying missles.
Silvia Pittston is screaming at the top of her lungs "get him! the interloper!"
Roland puts 4 bullets in the cross that Silvia is carrying, and a few more in her head for good measure.
A hilt of a knife hits Roland between the eyes, which enables them to catch up to him.
Someone cuts Roland across the bulge of his ankle with a knife
He finally manages to break free, and leads the rest of the crowd back out into the streets with the flat of the desert to hsi back.
He kills the last member with a shot that takes him in the back of the head, as he screams "Yelp!"
Silence comes back in, filling jagged spaces.

sarah
06-05-2008, 10:26 AM
yep. that'll do. thanks love. :wub:

the feather is yours. :D


and...


He led them a feverish parade across the street and toward the rickety general store/barber shop that faced Sheb’s. He mounted the boardwalk, turned again, and fired the rest of his loads into the charging crowd. Behind them, Sheb and Allie and the others lay crucified in the dust.

I was going to type a new question last night , but I completely forgot that I answered the question in here, since it's like...my first time answering one :lol: (I really need to get those damn concordances!)

For the sake of not making you guys wait another day, I'm going to post one that I know for sure, even if it's a little on the easy side.

Hmm, haven't been in here for ages - so I'll have a go:

On Keystone Earth, who fell prey to the serial killer, John Reginald Halliday Christie?

Nice question!! Thinking outside the box!! I love it! :excited:

Alas....it is a rare day when I don't know where to look to find an answer:

i have the fucking concordance, but it didn't help me with that question now did it? did it? DID IT? and i even looked in it because i was so fucking stumped. :lol:

like i said - somebody give me their brain, because mine is fucking fried!

ETA: zone are you still talking about the serial killer question? it was beryl evans, that's the answer.

Darkthoughts
06-13-2008, 01:23 AM
Beryl Evans is indeed the answer - Monte, I hate you :P

CK has been about, he just hides sometimes ;)

Brice
06-13-2008, 02:44 AM
Monte will be pleased. I own the concordance and NEVER use it for answering questions. I use my memory and occasionally the books. This is likely why I can seldom answer the questions. :(

Woofer
06-13-2008, 04:22 AM
I use my memory and the books. My copies have many slips of paper marking events.

MonteGss
06-13-2008, 05:46 AM
I.....I....got the answer right..? :D :lol:
Since I don't own the Concordance, I've never used to it to post or answer a question. Like Brice said, I use memory and my books. I love searching for an answer because it allows me to reread the most awesomest books on the planet. :) (awesomest IS a word)

I'll be back in a moment for a new question. :D

MonteGss

Someone else take the feather...

Mordred did about Roland, in reference to killing him (big sky meaning heaven?)

Nope... not at all.

ZoNeSeeK
06-19-2008, 12:07 AM
Ah, I have it

It was the Rod that sets the bombs to go off in Blue Heaven, and Big Sky Daddy means God. Wtf was his name? argh - Haylis? Hacis? something?

Letti
06-19-2008, 12:14 AM
Nope... but if you see it in the book let me know. Maybe it's somewhere else as well. So if you see it in the book I wouldn't like to say that you are wrong but if you say it by heart my answer is: no :)

No.

MonteGss
06-21-2008, 02:01 PM
It means "go shit in the ocean" and it is what Deepneau said to one of the Hitler Brothers when they were beating on the Fadda. Eddie asked Deepneau to translate it to him so he could be sure about his hunch that it was indeed Tower and Deepneau that saved the Pere.

Letti
06-21-2008, 02:02 PM
