Guesses for new set:
11. slice - I am not a golfer, but know that those are opposite terms used in golf and have to do with the trajectory of the hit ball
12. dunno, Bigdog asleep
13. Australia
14. mulling
15. Eight
16. fall down, a phrase especially popular in the Southern USA. Weebles Wobble But They Don't Fall Down. The first time a co-worker raised in Mississippi said that to me, I thought he had lost his mind.
17. Amazon, most likely
18. John Lennon
19. Well, Monopoly, but I suspect that is not the answer.
20. Ferrari

Guesses for new set:
21. Days of Our Lives
22. Willie Nelson, I can still hear his froggy voice on that song, such a contrast to the mellowness of Julio Iglesias
23. Sweden, which I know from working at the post office in my youth
24. Paris, I would say
25. Beefeaters
26. probably Australia, since they produce so much wine and have a very small population. BUT fun fact - Australian wine, per MY personal observations (I am half Australian), costs MUCH more in Australia than it does for us in the USA.
27. I suppose Ulysses S. Grant, eh?
28. Nestle
29. daughter-in-law, I seem to recall. Wow, that goes a long way back, but I did watch Barnaby Jones.
30. dunno
