I think you just broke a speed record.

Timing is everything

7. Both played FDR

1. Israel? They always seem to have a lot on their plate. But I guess we should ask what you mean by most active?? I believe China has the most "active military" as opposed to reserves and such.
2. Clan of the Cave Bear (starring the mermaid lady.....Daryl Hannah). That was enough to prevent me from seeing/reading any more.
4. Brazil's got a ton of them. (and their all on the beach )
5. Was just out there last week. Didn't see anything about this though. Maybe blacks?, women? Oh how about the windtalkers, the Navaho's used to communicate in code.
9. underwater of course
11. Johnny Depp. Dillenger was the movie. Not sure who it was about though.
13. She bobbed her husbands.....hmmmm... Bob.

8. Henny Youngman

7. Williams was in "Moscow on the Hudson". Murray played FDR in a movie with Hudson in the title?
8. This was in an ad from the 60s. Excedrin? Midol? Sanka? Something like that!

 

[Zorro]

8. Spelled backwards it's "lotireg".

 

[wire chief]

1..Guys, the word is COUNTY. Stay in the USA.

 

[wire chief]

1..Dedicated to all my followers who can't read properly. It's San Diego County.

2..Hooping fronts a 4some who attended to Jean Auel's best sellers. And I am distressed that Meyers could not find value in the 1st. Still, we've long known the fellow has an offbeat perception system. Cave, Horses.

3..Hooping again, no doubt leaving the farm to his baby brother, correctly provides "plows".

4..It is Brazil, where the pope has been hanging out and newly gentle on gays. JR & a few friends.

 

[wire chief]

5..Meyers offers "women". More precisely, this is where the WACS got their start.

6..Old tune..."set the world on fire." Can you finish?

7..SoCal is closest (Well, you can't expect a Californian to be precise) with Robin in "Moscow
on the Hudson". Much more recent is the flic "____ ____ on the Hudson" with Bill and Laura Linney about FDR's dalliances.

8..It was 1972, when the controversial ad for Geritol appeared. Zorro reminds us it was an ass-backwards thing to do at the height of the women's movement.

9..Bikini Atoll writes JR.

10..JR spins around a bit, then comes up with "Foreign Affairs". He knew that due to his dalliance with a Swiss woman once. Oh, JR, your wife doesn't read this, right?

11..Long sought John Dillinger--Meyers, hoop & JR.

12..Waquoit jumps on this even before I finished posting--Bugs Bunny.

13..Meyers is circumspect (and he rarely is) about the lady, um, "husband circumciser".

I guess we all just assumed you were so focused on "foreign affairs" you didn't have time to proofread.
