Guesses for new set: 41. dunno, but there have not been daily comics strips in perhaps this century, so going to go back to something military in my lifetime, which encompasses the majority of daily newspaper cartoons - I'll keep working on it, as I go through the rest of the questions. 42. Rats, I know this one too, but I am pretty stressed out tonight - we had to drive to and from Seattle, 82 miles, today, which should have been 1 hr. 37 minutes, but we allowed 3 hours and barely made it. The drive has become just harrowing between traffic and road construction. 43. Yay, an easy one! - 2 44. don't recall, although one of the murder weapons was boiling water. 45. Well, it has to be a water drink, or electrolyte, which would have been the way early days of electrolyte drinks - So, Perrier, Dasani? - will go with Dasani. 46. dunno 47. Mitty 48. Corleone 49. dunno 50. guessing UCLA . . .
