Witch it is.
Warlock has a negative connotation and means "oath breaker or traitor."
I understand the word is considered an insult.

Hopefully Spock will know this one. I suspect there's a term for this but I don't know what it is.

Yeah. I didn't know it either. Added the spoiler to keep the answer safe ... to remind me what it is.

Well, without looking it up, I'm not going to come up with it.

Spock needs to get over his latest seasick adventure and answer this one. I was going to say subsurface mountain but obviously that's wrong.

But your answer to my question was wrong. Georgia does touch the Gulf. I have a cousin who lives down there.
I think my brain is fried. My cousin lives in Alabama.

That would make it Southern Fried, one of my favorites.

Southern Fried is pretty good ... except for your health.

Some of the good things in life require a trade off. I'll risk it.
No comment from Spock in spite of several invitations so using your hint, sea mountain, or See that underwater mountain? It's goal in life is to rip out your keel.

Hey, I know this one...I think.

I have a friend (George) who lives on a farm with animals - let me ask him.

The question then becomes 'will he remember, Orwell he forget?'

Clever, I like that one.
And I don't know if he'll be able to find out - something about 'they're all equal, but some are more equal' and 'Four legs good, two legs bad' - and then all his "friends" turned their backs on him.

I put the answer in a 'whisper' to Joxcenia instead of a spoiler this time. Now only two of us can get to it. Mini-Mia & Joxcenia. I think.

But since someone else thought she had the answer first, doesn't that mean it's her turn to come up with a 5th grade question? I mean, I wouldn't want her to miss out.

Post by Mini Mia on Nov 21, 2015 22:00:31 GMT -6
It's her turn just as soon as she gives me the answer.

Sheesh, Joxie, you're picky.
Hhmmm, if anthromorphic means to give animals or things other than humans human characteristics and emotions (that part I know is right), anthromorphic characters in a story that teaches a lesson is called an anthromorphic fable (that's the part I'm guessing)?

Post by Mini Mia on Nov 21, 2015 22:54:31 GMT -6
Fable is correct.

All you were looking for was "fable"?! Sheesh! Well, there's a couple of brain cells wasted trying to remember 'anthromorphic'.
Let's move on to Social Studies.
What is a group of cities that have grown so large that they seem to form one big city called?

You have to consider that most of the earths water is salt water. It doesn't necessarily mean that its contaminated.

Scrappy! Good to see you again.
And remember the wise words of the great W. C. Fields: "I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it."
Urban sprawl? Minneapolis–Saint Paul, Dallas-Ft Worth? Like my brothers? (Twins) Many people have confused them, but I never had that problem.
