Well, I've already noticed that #28 and #121 is same. Unless we put number a new question as #121, that will throw all the numbers after 121 off...

So here's a new question: Which Mudcatter coined the name "A Guide To The Perplexed" for the list of Name That Nudcatter questions?

[Maybe using the folk process, the name should be changed to
"A Guide For The Perplexed". What do you think?]

Giok, how many pendants does a pendant thread have if a pendant thread could have pendants?

[Meditate on that redsnapper and all others who seek to achieve enlightenment by playing The Game].

As to your statements, Griok that "there is only one correct answer to a given question. Another answer may fit the description, but if it's not the answer the poser of the question wanted, then it's wrong", to that I-gameplayer #1, the Ruleress, the Great & Mighty Z, say that in this Game your statement "bes that way sometimes".
But at other times "That don't mean a thing cause it aint got that swing.

do wah do wah do wah.

So I know you get my drift, Griok -master in your own right. But for all those who are new to Game playing, let me break it down:

While I carry the torch and remain the Ruler, which is to say the Ruless which is to say the game player #1, which is to say the Great & Mighty Z, based on the Rules of the Game and based on my Great & Mighty Gut, when I say that an answer is correct, then that answer is correct.

And while I carry the torch and remain the Ruler, which is to say the Ruless which is to say the game player #1, which is to say the Great & Mighty Z, based on the Rules of the Game and based on my Great & Mighty Gut, when I say an answer is incorrect, it is incorrect.

This is true except when some other gamesplayer says what I thought was correct is incorrect and I change my Great & Mighty Mind about that the answer being correct.

And has happened before and this will happen again.

And thus is life.

And in due course, which means at the time of the new edition to the Guide to the Perplexed or whenever, I the Ruless, the Great & Mighty Z, will issue a correction to my previous pronouncement that the answer was correct and is now incorrect or the other way around.

I have spoken, or typed as the case may be.

And let me say this also...

Remember that the first rule of The Game, is that all Games players, including me, gamesplayer #1, play nice.

And the second rule of The Game is the same as the first rule-

No Games player, including me, gamesplayer #1, should ever PIP.

And what does PIP mean?

You-the collective you-tell me.

Which Mudcatter who lives in the land down under has a reference to that in her Mudcat name?

I looked at that and couldn't for the life of me think who it could be!
(ding.. hits head!) SRS you're right in that I chose a female form of Frodo (freda) and Underhill was Frodo's name when he went incognito at the Prancing Pony.

Re Frodo:

In Old English, fród means "wise by experience." For the name Baggins, Tolkien intended to recall the word "bag." The associated name Bag End was meant to imply "cul-de-sac." This was the local name of Tolkien's aunt's farm in Worcestershire, which was located at the end of a lane that led no further. ("Guide to the Names in The Lord of the Rings," p. 160, 178) Baggins may also be a reference to bagging, a term used in northern England for eating between meals. (Annotated Hobbit, ch. 1, note 3)

Mr. Underhill:
Frodo assumed this alias on leaving the Shire. It is a reference to his home at Bag End, under The Hill. However, the only time he used it was at the Prancing Pony in Bree.

However, Azizi is also right, my name (and Sandra's) perfectly fit her clue!

Subject: RE: BS: Name That Mudcatter
From: Azizi
Date: 28 Jun 06 - 01:09 AM

Actually, frogprince, I bet you were just showing off a creative way to come up with another guestion and then proceeded to answer it too.

That question is:

"What Mudcatter has a name which pays homage to an animal that is highly regarded by ancient Egyptians?"

And you posted your answer as:

"I would say it could be any of blackcatter, catspaw49, CatsPHiddle, or possibly Katlaughing, except I wasn't aware if Native Americans had as much of a thing for cats as the Egyptians did."

;o}

[I left off the reference to Native Americans unless you or someone else confirms that they paid homage to cats].

See this information about wolfs in European & Asian cultures:

The wolf was one of the most popular clan totems in pre-Christian Europe, as indicated even now by the prevalence of names like Wolf, Wolfe, Wulf, Wulfstan, Wolfram, and Wolfburg. Many tribes "turned themselves into wolves" periodically at religious festivals, by wearing wolf masks and skins.

In classical antiquity the wolf was thought of as a 'ghost animal' whose very gaze could strike people speechless. Herodotus and Pliny the Elder report that the members of the Scythian nation of the Neuroi were transformed into wolves once a year, then back into humans. Behind the story could lie a memory of a wolf totem for the entire nation; Genghis Khan also claimed to be descended from a blue-grey 'chosen wolf' which itself was sired by the sky."

For more info click: http://www.likeacat.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=9

Also, see this website for information on the symbolism wolfs had/have in some [or many ??] Native American cultures:

"Wolves are knowen as the teachers.They have been long considered by the First Nations people as teachers or pathfinders.

The wolf is held in very high esteem, as they are used as totems and representative of clans. In the stars, Wolf is represented by the Dog, Sirius in the Pleadies ,thought by many abroginal tribes to be the home of the "Ancients."...

http://www.geocities.com/wolfpies/animaltopics/wolfsymbol.html

See also this excerpt about cat symbolism in Egyptian, Celtic and other cultures [but it didn't mention Native Americans]:

Cats Mischevious, playful, alluring, intuitive, cats embody the essence of magick and mystery. As totems and spirit guides they offer protection, independence, psychic power, sensuality and self confidence. They are associated with the Moon, the Night and the element of Fire. Traditionally seen as the archetypical witch's familiar, cats are a magnificent aid to grounding, and just stroking their fur can bring calm, healing and a sense of peace. With their mysterious airs, it is no wonder that cats have been revered, mythologized and sometimes even feared since ancient times. During the Burning Times, cats were firmly entrenched in our mythology as the familiar animal of witches, and often murdered along with their owners. The lack of cats to kill rats allowed the Black Death to spread swiftly across Europe. In sharp contrast, the Egyptians treated them as gods and kings and even mummified them after their deaths, and killing a cat (even by accident) was punishable by death. The Egyptian goddess Bast, protectress of the Pharoah and of women, was seen as a cat or a cat-headed woman. Because of the cat's penchant for freedom, the Romans depicted the goddess of Liberty as having a cat at her feet. Freya, the Norse goddess of passion and fertility was associated with cats, and Shosti, the childbirth goddess of the Hindu mythos rides a cat. In Celtic lore, heroes were often seen battling giant cats rather than dragons."

I just read your post again, frogprince.

Somehow, frogprince, when I read your post and saw "Egyptians and Native Americans" I thought that was the same as my reference to "European" and "Native American" in that question.

Did Europeans pay homage to cats like ancient Egyptians did?

Also, since I make so many typos, did you think that I had mistyped and written "ancient Europeans" but meant "ancient Egyptians"?

Actually, I wasn't even thinking of cats. I knew that Egyptians payed homage to cats, but I didn't know that Native Americans did also. But since you're saying that is so, then yes, given the way I phrased the question, all those answers you gave are correct. And there may be other correct responses.

Well, Stilly, when I posted this question I was thinking of the Mudcat name "Freda Underhill". I admit that I never read "The Hobbit" books. However, I think that the reason why Freda selected her name is immaterial to my thought processes for devising & posting this question.

Though I wasn't thinking of the name Sandra in Sydney {sorry Sandra] when I posted this question, I stand by my statement that both "Freda Underhill" and "Sandra in Sydney" are correct answers for this question. And this question may have other correct answers for all I know.
