Final Beans

The final bunch.

Robo-questions, or, These are not the droids you're looking for:

• In what film did Jude Law play a robot? (They got it.)
  
• Name a famous astromech droid? (Zip was on it!)
  
• What is Waste Allocation Load Lifter – Earth-Class? (No problemo.)
  
• The robot in the Oz stories? (Crickets. Lots of crickets. I would have suggested a Menickean lifeline, but this was the elimination round.)
  

Water, water everywhere:

• Where is Easter Island? (No, Disney World is not the correct answer.)
  
• Name three countries surrounding the Japan sea. (They got it.)
  
• The Coral Sea is between what two countries? (They got it. I'll bet you didn't.)
  

Our special feature star was the Beeb. No one could possibly know any of these, and they didn't. Neither should you.

• How many Madame Toussaud's have wax figures of him?
  
• How many Twitter followers does he have - 3 million, 33 million, 330 million?
  
• What was his highest Klout score?
  
• (I didn't ask this one, and it may be the only one you might know.) In what movie did he appear as an alien (on TV monitors)? I'll give you the answer: MIB3.
  

Then there were thingummies.

• What is a lunula? (They knew it. I was stunned.)
  
• What is a dewclaw? (Nope.)
  
• What is a philtrum? (Another surprise correct answer.)
  

And finally, a few slogans:

• Life's short, play more. (They should have gotten this.)
  
• It takes a licking and keeps on ticking. (They knew what sort of item it was, but not the maker. Not good enough.)
  
• Just do it. (They did it.)
  
• A mind is a terrible thing to waste. (No, which meant one less Dan Quayle joke for the night.)
  
• Breakfast of champions. (Nope. Sailors don't eat breakfast, I guess.)
  

And so another bout of Beans bit the dust. Lots of questions in these categories were left over, so I'm ready to pick up where I left off at the drop of a hat.
