  1. But where did Sherlock get the head? And why was the man decapitated? Schrodinger’s bird flu made me laugh.
  2. Now I have “they say the Acropolis is where the Parthenon is” stuck in my head.
  3. I ran the Impressionists category. Monet, Manet, Tippy Tippy Day Day for you Seinfeld fans. No idea as to FJ! Seems like there have been quite a few geography FJs lately.
  4. The answer “the butler did it”had the word butler in the clue! Sloppy writers. Is there room at the Romulus and Remus table for me?
  5. You are so lucky. We called Dog 'N Suds Arf and Barf. They sold their root beer in waxed cartons shaped like megaphones. I buy the bottled root beer occasionally. It's not as good as I remember.
  6. I immediately thought Mason Dixon line, but figured that was too easy.
  7. According to MW, plumbago is an archaic word for lead or graphite. Why would the writers do such a thing?
  8. White Castle rocks. THE best.
  9. @DrSpaceman, your life is better not having seen Jerry Lewis movies. I hate him. We had JITB in Chicago in the 70s. Many a night we'd stop for tacos after cruising the neighborhood. What can I say, I was in high school!
  10. I got 5 of the 6 languages in the FJ! category, but completely blanked on Arabic. I didn't know it could be caligraphized. I just invented a new word.
  11. Yet another GWTW TS. People, read the damn book!
  12. Shangela and Ross Matthews are hosting the televised Eurovision Song Contest Grand Final today on Logo.
  13. I don't like sappy dialog so I fast forwarded through the vows. I did get a bit misty eyed when Mary and Sheldon had their little talk. Kripke singing was the perfect ending. I do want Raj and Missy to be a couple.
  14. Even I, a 60 year old white female, knew the University of Mississippi. I was what, 5 or 6 when it happened, but it is a landmark event that every educator should know. Gold Rush and Ain't She Sweet were well before my time but I knew them. In fact, I sang Ain't She Sweet to the cat and tried to Charleston. I buy postage stamps because my hobby is rubber stamping so I'm always sending out handmade cards.
  15. FJ! was a bit of a poser but I finally got it. I thought the Globe was built before the 1990s. Is it wrong that I want one of them to spend their grant on hookers and blow? LOL
  16. Isn't "stamps" a Clavin Category? I have Elvis, Janis AND Paul Newman stamps. Those get doled out sparingly.
  17. No idea as to FJ! although I figured it was a city west of the Mississippi. The Presidental Possessive category couldn't have been easier. That was almost Teen Jeopardy! material.
  18. Mayo with fries is a must have for me. I blanked on moors (moops?) because I thought it was too obvious. Plus I hate Wuthering Heights. No Brontes, no Austen pour moi.
  19. Alex gave a clue during Snatch Game on RuPaul. It was a video insert.
  20. Alex is on RuPaul tonight! I loved that the writers used the phrase prog rock. It’s so British, like chuffed. I totally blanked on FJ!
  21. FJ! was an instaget, but it would impossible if you don't know designers, even if you figured out LV. I'm bummed Osman is gone. He was a good contestant and had no annoying tics/swaying/shouting/annoying mannerisms.
  22. The category was B.G. I'm glad the judges ruled against just Button. All answers should have to have had first and last names. I got FJ! right away, but when will I ever learn the difference between Dante's Inferno and Paradise Lost? I blew that DD but glad Osman got it. I can't believe the British Museum was a TS. I knew netsuke but couldn't pronounce it.
  23. In the 80s, I had a very cool khaki shirt dress that I belted with a wide leather belt, and wore a leopard print scarf. That's as close to fashion as I've ever gotten. I was also 40 pounds lighter so could carry it off. My favorite candy bar as a kid was Heath and I still love them. And Baby Ruths. I thought everyone knew the Baby Ruth was not named after Babe Ruth story.
