Guesses for new set: 31. A lot of striped things are called zebra, so I will go with that. Not sure about the Little Debbie snack cakes though. Bigdog's Momma loved Little Debby snack cakes. Once she got over about 105, she might have decided to eat only those. Also, she would have gotten married at 102, I am sure, but she wasn't divorced from the 4th husband by then. 32. Illinois 33. insect 34. Yangtze, have done a river cruise on the Yangtze. 35. San Francisco 36. blue, have not been there. 37. I don't know whether to go with turmeric or garlic, guess I will go with garlic 38. dunno, Bigdog asleep 39. swan 40. Alice in Wonderland . . .

Guesses for new set: 41. Big Bopper 42. John 43. German 44. Keeping in mind that this is a Canadian game, and that Canada has a very large population from this country, I will say India, but I think it is popular in many other countries as well. 45. 640, although I think that is way too few for square yards. but whenever a question such as this is asked, always say 640 when you have no idea what the answer is. Sometimes it will be right. Same as when asked on a bonus question, "what is the answer?", always say 42. 46. corpse flower 47. Bigdog says the Bumsteads 48. humidity 49. numbers, or literally, inability to calculate (made this up, but could be right) 50. I associate Legionnaire's Disease with listeriosis, which I think was caused by a bacteria . . .
