I know both of them but I cheated and googled them, so that doesn't count.  - Chris  You can google the answers?  I did not know that. Oh dear.....you must all promise for the rest of the game, not to google. This is the honor system, and I am a teacher, so you'd better obey me. Then you are all disqualified from this round. Except Chris who was honest enough to tell me. Go to the head of the class Chris. i didn't google  |

LOOKS like these are the only ones not cracked. I will have to declare a winner after the panel of judges makes a decision on who won, but anyone getting these will surely win. 5) 56 S of the D of I 9) 10 A in the B of R I know both of them but I cheated and googled them, so that doesn't count. - Chris Modified to add: And while I was off googling, Kathy and Lindy posted the correct answers, well done, both of you.  I've just been catching up with this game and... You know what? Most of these are hard! Plus, I've got to say, I'm impressed that Chris knew the answers (above), even if she did use Google for help! There I was thinking, sheesh! These are hard! How does anyone expect us Europeans to know about the Bill of Rights (beyond the fact that it exists, that is), or how many people there are in the House of Representatives. And then I discover, that the flaw is mine, because Chris knows stuff! Even if she did google. I bow down to Chris who is obviously cleverer and less whiny than I am! And, I think I'm going to give her some karma for cleverness and honesty for 'fessing up to the whole google thing. Krissie |

Oh, no, what did I do? Please, Ma'am, don't disqualify the others, I'm the only one who cheated. - Chris <head bowed in shame> OK Chris you convinced me. I will not disqualify anyone. Now you must write on the board 100 times: I will not google the answers. OK on to round 4. 1) 16 O in a P 2) 31 I in a B G 3) 20,000 L U T S 4) 2 T D (& A P I A P T) 5) 9 I in a B G 6) 13 C in A S 7) 36 I in A Y 8) 6 W of H T E 9) 212 D at which W B 10) 3 P for a F G in F 11) 20 Y T R V W S 12) 101 D 13) 60 S in A M 14) 50 W T L Y L 15)59 B of H W in H |

I googled a few but by no means all of them. I will not google anymore because you are a more experienced teacher and I must learn from my elders.

Krissie Krissie I'm going to karma you right back 'cuz I'm so glad to hear you think this is hard too.  OK Chris you convinced me. I will not disqualify anyone. Now you must write on the board 100 times: I will not google the answers. I will karma you as soon as possible, Mary, for being a fair teacher.  And now on to my punishment: 1 - I will not google the answers. 2 - I will not google the answers. 3 - I will not google the answers. 4 - I will not google the answers. 5 - I will not google the answers. 6 - I will not google the answers. . . . 46 - I will not google the answers. . . . . . 99 - I will not google the answers. 100 - I will not google the answers. Now, people, on to the game!!!! I will watch and learn, no more cheating on my part.  - Chris |

Hey congratulations everyone! Katrayna won that round, and our panel of judges will soon determine who is the winner of the Collector's edition DVD.
My daughter brought this list home at Christmas and we all worked on figuring them out on Christmas and beyond. We got all but 2 ("Without the benefit of the blind guy,,uuhh",I mean google. ) and those are the only two that no one got. They still remain unsolved. I'd hoped by putting them in there this last game, someone would guess them.
And Martha, just back from her vacation I would guess, jumped in there at the last minute, Thanks Martha. And I do have to say to Chris, Krissie, and Kasman, good job on some specific ones that I did not expect you to know. 435 members of the House of Representatives. 10 Amendments in the Bill of Rights. "How would (you) know?" So good job too, Hoosier, Anita, Lindy, Natasha, Kathy, and to all who entered! Winner will be announced as soon as the judging is complete. Decision of the judges is final. (I'm sure Anita will share her copy with all of those who were not fortunate to win.)

see #2 2) 31 I in a B G 31 innings ina baseball game??Good try N, but no- only 9 innings in a baseball game. I wonder if this one could be a mistake, as no one seems to be able to figure it out. |

I did not know that. Oh dear.....you must all promise for the rest of the game, not to google. This is the honor system, and I am a teacher, so you'd better obey me. Then you are all disqualified from this round. Except Chris who was honest enough to tell me. Go to the head of the class Chris.
