Questions not answered yet: 1. Take the name of a well-known brand name. Remove the 3rd letter, and you get an ADJECTIVE that describes a certain country's head of state. What are they? 2. Take the name of a Japanese luxury vehicle sold in the US, rotate the middle letter 90 degrees clockwise, and you get the name of a world capital. What is the car? Reply #1. Dec 03 08, 7:03 PM |

#2 is Acura-Accra. Good job TAKROM! 3. Take the name of a famous sporting venue. Take the last letter, make it the first letter, and you get the name of another famous sporting venue. What are they? Reply #3. Dec 04 08, 6:42 AM |

#3 is correct. 4. General trivia: What object can best be described as "interactivodular"? 5. Take the name of a county. Now, take the first letter of the country, move it down the alphabet 2 spaces (such as from P to R). If you spell the "new" country backwards, you get the name of an animal that can be found in the original country. What are they? #1 has still not been answered. Reply #5. Dec 07 08, 8:14 PM |

#1 I was thinking about the USA, and was wondering if there was a brand name TWIAT? Sorry, that's not an adjective either is it? Reply #7. Dec 08 08, 10:22 AM |

Numbers 4 and 5 are now answered. Even though TWAIT isn't the right answer, it could be, if it was a brand name. To make it more specific, the country is European, and the head-of-state really does not rule over his country. Reply #9. Dec 08 08, 8:50 PM |

6. What are the only U.S. presidents whose last names begin and end with the same letter? 7. Excluding countries that begin and end with the letter "A"... What is the only 1 word country that begins and ends with the same letter? Only 2 word country? Only 3 word country? ONLY 4 WORD COUNTRY? ONLY 5 WORD COUNTRY?!?

#7 How about: 1 word - Seychelles or Tibet 2 words - Solomon Islands 3 words - Central African Republic 4 words - Saint Kitts and Nevis I can't get 5 words though. Reply #12. Dec 15 08, 9:24 PM |

#6 is right. #7 is almost all right. Tibet is trying to become its own country, but still have to work with China. Hint for the 5-word, it starts with "Saint". 8. I have been thinking about what I want for Christmas, and since I'm in the mood for receiving calling birds and drummers, I asked my true love what she'd give to me. But this economy is holding everyone back. But she said I can only have items that have the same vowel throughout the gift (like "geese", the noun, not the adjective "a-laying") So, what should I be expecting on December 25th? Reply #13.

All of #7 is finished. Australia is not accepted because these countries do not start with the letter "A". Besides Afghanistan and Azerbaijan, all of the other "A" countries end with "A". Albania Algeria Andorra Angola Antigua and Barbuda Argentina Armenia Australia Austria And Burkina Faso starts with a "B" and ends with a "O". Reply #16. Dec 19 08, 6:58 AM |

9. Name something you would see in many shopping malls. Take out the middle letter, which happens to be an "A", and you get a word associated with the Christmas season. What are they? 10. Take a word that describes Matahma Gandhi. Remove the second letter, and you get an item that Dick Cheney uses. What are the words? Reply #18. Dec 22 08, 1:28 PM |
