New Quartet:

Igor Stravinsky
Henri Matisse
Jean Cocteau
Salvador Dali




Hmmm...they were all friends of Picasso?




Musicmystery -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 9:48:03 AM)

No, not necessarily. But I could have added Picasso to this list as well.




fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 10:42:45 AM)

Friends of Gertrude Stein at her salons in Paris.




Musicmystery -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 11:04:11 AM)

fluffy, EVERYBODY was friends with Gertrude Stein.
(Good guess, though, as was SP's)

OK, a hint. They all did (artistic) work for the same employer, ___________________ .

[I'll give more hints if asked...]





ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 3:59:37 PM)

Oh. I was definitely barking up the wrong tree, then. I was thinking they were all key figures in some artistic movement. I think I need to keep guessing. 




Musicmystery -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:11:16 PM)

Not exactly wrong, Panda. We're in the right general place and time (though you could/should go back to that century's first two decades as well).

OK....I've already said that to the original quartet:

Igor Stravinsky
Henri Matisse
Jean Cocteau
Salvador Dali

that I could have added Pablo Picasso.

I could also have added Ida Rubenstein, Maurice Ravel, and Michel Fokine.

They all contributed their artistic talents to the same enterprise, which is.......




fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:16:22 PM)

Ballet Russe




Musicmystery -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:29:32 PM)

Yes!!!!! The Ballet Russes is correct! (Serge Diaghilev, its impresario, would have been acceptable too).

I was going next to add to add Nijinsky, Pavlova, Debussy and Benois, but those would have been giveaways, of course.

You're up, fluffypet!






fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:36:27 PM)

Parisian
Continental
Tent
Gobelin




intenze -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:44:36 PM)

needlepoint stitches?




fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 4:54:19 PM)

YES.  Your turn, intenze.

Damn, She is smart! Her and that demon genius Intenze, you can't slip anything past them.

Pretty good quartet, though, MM. Very good. I wish you'd play this more often; yours always seem to be top notch.




fluffypet61 -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 5:23:04 PM)

[Panda, more like a smart ass.  As someone here on the boards said some time back - i have the internet and i'm not afraid to use it.]

Thank you, Panda. It's just a question of available time.

Radon
Chloroflurocarbons
Graphitic carbon aerosol
Methane Gas

Pollutants?




intenze -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 6:06:23 PM)

geez
yeah.
I need to up the bar some I guess. That took what..2 minutes?




Musicmystery -> RE: What Do These Things Have In Common? (8/1/2009 6:08:29 PM)

2 minutes, 19 seconds.

Sure, but everyone else has the same internet you have, yet you still keep reelin' 'em in one after the other. You and Intenze both; I think you guys are smarter than hell. Not just the ones you two solve, but the ones you make up as well. It's really fun playing with both of you. DCnovice, too, but  he doesn't seem to play as much these days.

It's a trick...maybe they're working together...!

[Yes, Panda's right...two sharp people, no doubt.]
