Subject: Questions from GOW's Blog
Date: Dec 03 08

I have been consistently posting riddles and questions on my blog, but in order to expand the challenge for more people, I will post the questions here.

Keep an eye out for new questions on this post.



Please feel free to leave feedback for the site administrators. We will take all feedback into account as we tweak and add new features.
The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

122 is right.

115. Wilder and Welder is incorrect. I should mention the actor was British, if that eliminates things.

119. Showdown and Major Tom are both incorrect. For Showdown, the numbers are not in my time range, and it is not part of the background music. Major Tom only has numbers 1-4. The answer makes perfect sense, trust me.

houston1127 119. "The Final Countdown" by Europe. My little brother's favorite song! I thought of that before, but didn't notice any words at that point. Strained my earholes and I heard it!

houston1127 117. A question. Are the n/a's part of the data set or are they there to make the question ambiguous?

houston1127 115. John Cleese and the Cheese Shop.

115 is right. If you don't understand exactly, here is the sketch on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3KBuQHHKx0

For 117, N/A means 'a number does not apply for some of the members of the list'.

119 and 123 are right. 120 is right (and just a few days before Easter)

121. The only other thing I can think of is Briton, Norbit. And I am pretty sure that's not right. :-)

For 121, think of a one-word name of a group of people, not the name of an actual person. The name is more like 'Tudor' than 'Blair'.
