[KnightBridgeAZ]

Wow - I'm with Hooping Crane's 5 answers - they were the five I thought I knew and the answers I would have given (except I only know the 1st and 3rd telephone songs he gives). And for me to think I knew 5 was an accomplishment . . .

 

[wire chief]

My dear Hope, DON'T HIT REPLY!

16..Given the news that comes from Texas, that is a logical reply...but try again.

19.Good work, now let's see if you can provide an obvious omission by Stevie Wonder.
Marty Balin leaves Jefferson Starship to plead, "I just called to say how lost I feel without you." Title?

[Tidepool]

16. Will guess Florida, in which juries don't decide punishment, they make a recommendation to the judge, who makes the actual decision, though the U.S. Supreme Court just agreed to decide whether Florida's system is constitutional. (Then there are states like Arkansas in which judges can "override" a jury's decision, an option judges often use when the jury returns with a non-death verdict.)

 

[Aluminny69]

19. The Chuck Berry song is Memphis, Tenn not Marie. Johnny Rivers did a cover in the sixties.

Also, Operator by the Manhattan Transfer, and Don't Hang Up by the Orlons

OOPs, just remembered a different song, same title, Operator by Jim Croce.

 

[Zorro]

[wire chief]

14..K9 & Hope cite the pugilists on the card.

15..JC, meyers & K9 provide 2 tickets to Paradise...for anyone who wants 'em.

16..Tide reminds us of a backward state I now call home.

17..Hoop is our exclusive Swahili speaker--simba.

18..Drive & VAUC know Paul needed 5 syllables, not 4.

19..If ever there were an explosion of goodies, this question certainly yielded such.
Here's the one I stumped you with.


20..Copper was sporadic, less usable than bronze. Stone, bronze, iron. Drive is complete.

21..Hoop & VAUC are on the nose--1836.

22..Rbny has spent his entire life trying to paint a boat like Homer Simpson, oops, not, Winslow Homer.

23..It's one Messerschmidt among several. But it really doesn't exist until Pinto says it does.
Ed4 & VAUC too.

24..Financier J P Morgan, as the geordi quartet testifies.

25..Close the window, come alive (what passion!) Anyway it's JC & K9 with WE'RE ALL ALONE.

Well, you're off on a couple of dates, but that's a minor transgression. You are most impressive,
so much so that I'm seriously considering running more tests.
