It was neither beans nor eggs. :)

Keep trying. I might provide some tasty tips later.

Well, Old Possum would probably know this one. Gus could certainly put a spear right into the heart of the matter...

Well, if you knew anything about "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats", or the musical "Cats", you would get that I've actually given you the answer, in short form. :) Oh, it was also mentioned in Logan's Run, by the old man.

Yes! We have a winner!

Gus is the Cat at the Theatre Door.
His name, as I ought to have told you before,
Is really Asparagus. That's such a fuss
To pronounce, that we usually call him just Gus.
Your question!

Thanks IS - good anagram! (Gus a spear)

I'll have to come back with a question when I've thought of one. It's a while since I read the books and my memory is not good! Can't remember the names of half the people in it now.

What did the Tor tell Ribuld he would do if he had a daughter? (In both instances, the word, "he", refers to the Tor.)

Damn. :D That was a deliberately easy one, wasn't it?

Ok...what weapon does Gerarden threaten Gilbur with when he bursts in on the arch-imager near the end?

I didn't know if it was an easy question or not, Avatar; I just decided to find out by asking it! :)

Okay, is it a chair leg that Geraden uses to threaten Gilbur?

Haha, yes, yes it is. :D

I suppose technically he threatens the mirrors with it, but that's the answer I was looking for. :D
