Status: offline 		I'd argue frame because (a) it's a relatively modern invention and (b) it's main purpose is to inflict as much pain as possible without killing.

Arguably, iron maiden differs from the others in that it punctures rather than stretch/compress and suffocate.

I was going for Iron Maiden being metal when the others are usually made of wood.  I was also prepared to accept Iron Maiden as a musical group for the "odd one out".

Other than that Otter was the only one in the Movie Animal House.......

Status: offline 		Actually, badgers, otters, and ferrets are all mustelids. Muskrats are not. (And ferrets don't swim, they only make messes in water.)

Alternately, you could have gone with the fact that the domestic ferret (no real relation to the black-footed ferret) is the only one that has been domesticated for over 2700 years.

EDITED: Well done, Petruchio.

Majestic is the right answer, but for a different reason. The other three were sister ships.

All four belonged to White Star, hence the -ic ending. Cunard ships (aside from the Queens) ended in -ia.

Your turn, Ron!

Generally, the others are comprised of cold cuts.

As I think about it, I don't suppose that's a hard and fast rule.

Right on, the Grinder is served hot, with the cheese all bubbly and gooey.
