zoey1996 June 8, 2019 Share June 8, 2019 If I counted correctly, there are 7 more weeks of regular play; last episode for the season is on July 26, total of 46 weeks. 1 Link to comment
saber5055 June 8, 2019 Author Share June 8, 2019 WEEK 39 — NO asterisk 189. Shakespeare’s Time. The line “a great reckoning in a little room” in “As You Like It” is usually taken to refer to this author’s premature death. 190. World Time Zones. This European country is still an hour ahead of GMT, a move made in 1940 to be on the same time as Nazi Germany. 191. The NATO Phonetic Alphabet. This discovery of November 8, 1895 by a German physicist represents a letter in the NATO phonetic alphabet. 192. American Music Legends. Steinbeck called him “just a voice and a guitar” but said his songs embodied “the will of a people to endure and fight against oppression.” 193. Canadian Cities. City Hall in this Western provincial capital is on Victoria Avenue near the corner of Albert Street. 4 Link to comment

saber5055 June 15, 2019 Author Share June 15, 2019 WEEK 40 — NO asterisk 194. 20th Century Theater. The final scene of this play takes place by a grave & includes the line “He had the wrong dreams.” 195. Landmarks. Poet Rabindranath Tagore compared this landmark to a teardrop glistening on the cheek of time. 196. Popular Products. This product that brought virtual tourism into homes in 1939 introduced its first virtual reality device in 2015. 197. Word History. This word for a bug or malfunction was popularized in the 1962 book “Into Orbit” by the Mercury astronauts. 198. Medical News 2018. For the first time, the FDA approved a drug for the treatment of this, though there hadn’t been a new case in 40 years. 1 Link to comment
