14..Pinot recognizes the Fleetwood Mac tune--Never going back again.
Perhaps also signifying how Pinot learned his lesson.
And VAUC, you must be guided by the blanks, even if you could never color between the lines.

15..Moviegoers Wally & Meyers (no, not together) tell us Summer is a woman, and she'll hang out with you for 500 days.

16..Brazil, which he claimed for Portugal. Applause for geordi.

17..VAUC in a quartet with The Satanic Verses.

18..Wally & geordi note that Muslims carry no crosses, just crescents.

19..Who would want to go down in history as a Smith (unless you make cough drops)?
Knights isn't fooled by giving us Rolfe.

at the end of the show, George Burns would bring proceedings to a halt with the famous quip.

21..Mr006 & VAUC identify the motorcycle-riding Fonzie pal as the singer.

22..Though misnumbering it, Wally takes a ride on the whale shark.

23..Ray Milland's Lost Weekend.

24..SoCal only shows his face once, but he's got a toughie--(Yoko) Ono.
Perhaps like myself, he watched Mad Men to find that out...or he's Hawaiian.

25..Cuba will do fine, as four of you typed.

So, be proud, you erudite Bonies, for scoring 23/25.

 

[SoCalCanine]

Two things, first I don't "pile on", if I see what I feel is the right answer up there already, I ignore the question usually. And while I am not Hawaiian, I have spent a lot of time there and know quite a bit of both Hawaiian and Pidgin. And I hardly ever watch TV other than sports! And I can't count very well cause I guess that was really three things!
