Prevailing Wind November 13, 2019 Share November 13, 2019 I thought Shere Khan from Jungle Book, but then thought he was a panther, so thought I was wrong. Must be Bosco's influence. He was sitting on me, purring, at the time. He IS my house panther. 2 Link to comment

3 is enough November 15, 2019 Share November 15, 2019 @suebee12, I have the flu and evidently I am more out of it than I thought. I misread the tweet. He did not spoil it at all. He merely stated not to underestimate Francois, who has never lost a game. I specifically stayed away because I did not want to be spoiled. And I remain unspoiled. 1 Link to comment

Week 10 (ToC Week 2) 0/5 YTD: 26/50, 4* So I'm still above 50% for the season, but that could easily change to under 50%. 😢 Edited November 16, 2019 by zoey1996 2 Link to comment
Clanstarling November 16, 2019 Share November 16, 2019 1/5 - as it should be, since I'm not championship material. 😄 3 Link to comment

illdoc November 16, 2019 Share November 16, 2019 Week 10: 1/5 Overall: 23/50 (46%) 2 *. Does not look like this will be my season. 1 Link to comment
saber5055 November 16, 2019 Author Share November 16, 2019 WEEK 10 — ONE asterisk - ToC week 2 * 46. Famous Phrases. In the title of a groundbreaking 1890 exposé of poverty in New York City slums, these 3 words follow “How the.” * 47. U.S. Demographics. In 2018 Forbes said this “Belt’s Demographic Delight” is this other “Belt’s Demograpic Dilemma.” * 48. Italian Inventors. In a 1644 letter he wrote, “We live submerged at the bottom of an ocean of air”, which is what his invention measures. 49. Old Testament Books. By Hebrew word count, the longest book bears this name that led to a word for a long complaint or rant. 50. International Disputes. A dispute over Etorofu, Habomai, Kunashiri & Shikotan has kept these 2 countries from ever signing a WWII peace treaty. Posting the questions reminds me I said "Rich get richer" for Monday's answer. Hoo-woo me. Save me a chair at the 0 table. Link to comment

DXD526 November 16, 2019 Share November 16, 2019 Monday was an instaget, and I started off batting 1.000 and put myself in great position to have a great week. Unfortunately, then Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday happened. 1/5. 3 Link to comment

saber5055 November 23, 2019 Author Share November 23, 2019 (edited) WEEK 11 (Week of Nov. 18) — ONE asterisk * 51. U.S. Cities. Celebrating electricity & tech., an exposition in this U.S. “City of Light” in 1901 was overshadowed by another major event. 52. Business & Industry. Peaking at 9,000 locations in 2004, this chain of stores was down to one in 2019, located in Bend, Oregon. 53. Movie & Book Titles. This title of a 1962 novel & 1975 film refers to the direction the last of 3 geese took in an old nursery rhyme. * 54. American History. One a Civil War hero & one a U.S. Senator, bros. with this last name were both considered for the 1884 Republican pres. nomination. * 55. Home & Garden. In 1847 eccentric horticulturalist Sir Charles Isham popularized these when he imported terra cotta ones from Nuremburg. Edited November 23, 2019 by saber5055 1 Link to comment
