Dawn I'm still searching books for planet. Do any of these work?1. The planet teetered than spun out of orbit
2. Its not like he's telling me he's Superman from the planet Krypton, right?
3. disappeared from the face of the earth
4. She's the most lively yet down-to-earth person I've ever met
5. they need only the shortest amount of time on Earth
6. sun boils into the Gulf like a molten red planet

3. ..."
3, 4 & 7 don't work because it is in the term of earth/planet as a realm not an actual planet orbiting a sun.
The rest of them would work.
OK Thanks Dawn, I guess I am having a hard time with seeing the difference. I will hold one of those approved books back in case Mr. R. gets it in his head to call planet. :)

The proper noun Earth is a planet. The word earth can be dirt, soil, a realm of existence etc.
Ok looking harder at it Sheila I would take #7 too. It isn't quite what I wanted, but it does reference the planet.

Ice fishing, yes.
Why on earth, no.
I just about to ask that Jennifer! :)
Jennifer ♔Princess Penguin♔ wrote: "Would crystal ball work?"Yes, any kind of spherical ball. Just as long as it isn't the party kind.
Costume - He was attired in native African COSTUME, flowing robes in a colorful print and a pillbox hat. ?
Would either of these work for elbow?"...the man at my elbow looked up at the clock."
"...and the blows began to fall, elbow jabs, kicks administered by a gentleman in green..."
For costume?
"...scattered peasantry with colorful costumes, quaint dances,..."
"A girl, clothed in a traditional costume...."
"...joyous villagers garbed n national costumes..."
Ok, I took my daughter to school and while I was gone my puppy spilled my coffee on my keyboard. While it dries out I am on my iPad which is harder to reply. So if I miss a question please ask again.
Melanie, Felt like a ball will work.
In order for Earth to count as a planet it needs to be the proper noun. With a capital E.
Pat, like a football player would work for pro sport but not a ball, since the actual ball is not referenced just the person.
Would any of these work for ball:Don’t throw that ball in my court.
He could feel a hard, tight ball of suspicion forming in his gut
Clearing her throat, she fought to keep from sounding as though she had just swallowed a golf ball.

Native African grab isn't a "Costume", just like an Indian Sari isn't a "Costume" but traditional attires.
SMH.

Chromosome 6 by Robin Cook
would this be ok for planet-->“If the aliens are trying to control Buffalo Bill's thoughts from another planet, Senator Martin can protect him — is that the pitch?”
Ezi, the word earth has several meanings. It can be the physical dirt that our planet is made of. It can be a realm of existence, as in heaven and earth are different realms. If it is capitalized as a proper noun then that is in reference to the planet. A lot of the examples given refer to the realm of existence.
Would you accept this for piano: Miss Minchip sat the pianoforte and began to play a Bach Sonata?Would jackrabbit be acceptable for rabbit:The child bolted, faster than a jackrabbit and disappeared just as quick?
Will these work for Native American?The Mercers' living room was decorated in luxe Southwestern colors-lots of earthy reds and tans paired with Navajo chevron prints.
The officiant had a resonant, musical voice, tinged with the same faint Anglo-Indian accent Dr. Banerjee had.
Would "rain check" work for rain?What exactly are you looking for with Metropolitan Area?
Will someone's shadow work for Silhouette?
Does ice cream work for Ice??

Mandy wrote: "Will you take "It reminds me of a Magic 8 Ball I once saw at a garage sale." for ball?"
Yup, yup and yup.

Rain needs to be water from the sky. So rain check won't work.
Metropolitan Area is a large city, you can list a city name (New York, Chicago, L.A., London, etc)
There is a slight difference between shadow and silhouette. If the shadow has clear definable lines in the shape of a person or thing, then it would be a silhouette. Just a regular shadow will not work.
Yes, ice cream will work.
