Mamie, you need to teach those grandbabies how to post trivia at TVCH ASAP. I am pretty sure the oldest is already old enough to be able to do it. JUST kidding. Or maybe not ...
Guesses for new set:
81. Swiss Alps
82. dunno
83. hibachi - we were in Japan a couple weeks ago - the countryside looks almost exactly like where I live - more snow-capped volcanos, but very same vegetation, same weather. Huh!
84. Gordon Ramsey, no idea
85. Joe DiMaggio
86. city bus
87. Janet, of course "Oh, Bra-a-a-a-a-d," she trills, and he rasps out, "OHhhhhh, JANET!!!", and then they chime together, "I love you so-o-o-o-o-o!" Thanks for the coming-home gimme, Mamie. You are too good to me. Who knew that I would be cashing in on all those Rocky Horror Picture Show movie attendances 50 years later?
88. jaw, I think
89. Maybe Belize, because I remember learning about it in grade school, and then later in life there appeared this new country down around the tip of Mexico, and they speak English, and it is called Belize, and how the hell did I miss that? Oh, and also, Resortgirl, one of our original posters here, along with probably all of us, is building a house to retire to in Belize!
90. Horton Hears the Who
