    Guesses for new set:    61. Well, cross and speaking or using words, might mean a crossword puzzle fan which some people like to do in their free time.     62. Arby's, and I think they might have just recently resurrected the same slogan.    63. Well, probably English-speaking but not USA, so maybe Europe/UK or Australia, or could even be Singapore, as English is a major language there.  But London seems likely, so I will go with that.      64. aqueducts    65. Mars    66. weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore.  While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. (Long ago I used to read both this poem and some other really long ones to Bigdog - can we do Rime of the Ancient Mariner tomorrow?)      67. Scout    68. Alley    69. Halloween, I think    70. Arnold Schwarzenegger                    .            .                        .
