    Guesses for new set:    61. Adam's apple    62. Omg, you would not believe the beauty of their eyelashes.  I have been on a camel twice, both in Egypt, separate trips. ... unless, of course, that is not the answer, in which case ignore the photo. 
      63. dunno    64. bonobo    65. Unabomber - I had kept a file on the Unabomber in my office dating back to his first mail bomb, and when I transferred from Houston to San Francisco in 1995, the Unabomber had just resumed making and sending bombs, so my first activity on my new assignment was to slog around to various postal facilities with mock parcels giving a presentation on how to spot a Unabomber parcel.  And it was a U.S. Postal Inspector on MY team who got to put the handcuffs on Ted Kaczynski when he was finally arrested.    66. Oh, why not China?  I played a LOT of badminton in my youth.  I had young parents who were very physically active, and I suppose wanted to wear their children out so they would sleep soundly while the parents practiced adult activities.  I just now figured this out.  Thanks, Mamie.    67. No, of course not    68. I don't know, 6?    69. dunno    70. I probably know this, but not coming up with it.                                  .                    .        .
