20 questions before bed.....
The categories are 'animal', 'vegetable', 'mineral', and 'thing'. Things are things created by homo sapien sapien.


This one is a thing.

BIG hint - ALL of you have at least one


I'm tired, and have a big poll-watching day ahead, so make it quick and smart!

33. hmm
I posed my query before I read this post. I have to say, I'm stumped. I can't think of a single thing that is not organically part of my body that I always have with me; well the fillings in my teeth, but I don't see how you can assert that all of us have at least one of those. I know people who have none.

51. A mind?
Edited on Tue Nov-02-04 05:07 AM by Spider Jerusalem
This seems like the best guess I can make; creation of homo sapiens (through evolution, and not consciously, but still); always have it with you; can't use it to communicate (because there's no such thing as telepathy)...if this isn't it, I give up.
