Guesses for new set:
31. Betcha it is Tootsie Roll
32. China
33. O'Hare - it used to be a nightmare flying in or out of there in the 80's, and it was then known as O'Hare. I remember one time Bigdog and I flew in, and my sister picked us up at the gate, and we walked for ONE HOUR inside the airport and then to where her car was parked. And we were all in our 40's then and used to walking. We were not exhausted, but I happened to look at my watch when we arrived at the car. Oh! THAT was the trip when Bigdog's childhood friend asked Bigdog to bring him a 40 or 50 pound bag of mesquite wood because we lived in Houston then, and the buddy was a cheapskate, and Bigdog actually DID IT!! I have taught him a thing or two about not being taken advantage of in the ensuing 35 or so years.
34. I think that is the Avatar guy, who is James Cameron.
35. Oscar the Grouch, if Sesame Street goes back that far.
36. fire
37. should be who not whom, but I am stalling for time - uhhhhhhh ... Egypt, so one of the pharaohs.
38. liqueur
39. dolphin
40. not coming up with any root words that might give me a clue
