Guesses for new set: 41. Pepto Bismol (odd fact - Pepto Bismol does not seem to be sold in Europe. In fact, the pharmacies I tried had never even heard of it. Huh!) 42. I think that is Dr. Seuss, and there is some story about how he came up with the name, but I can't recall it now, IF Dr. Seuss is the right answer. 43. Lady Gaga- that was a feature story a few years ago 44. Oh hell, my Aussie relatives sometimes drink shandies - maybe club soda? 45. iron 46. 51 47. Jim Carrey 48. 10 - for some reason, this is a question that comes up fairly frequently in trivia, so I just memorized it 49. Joe Frazier 50. likely Canada, because the country is so huge, and large parts of it are uninhabited .. . .
