1st. woohoo

I love 12

I don't know whether to <burp> or <fart>.

#5 has 2 spellings, depending on the part of the country you are in!

Sorry, didn't mean to say that twice

I need 1 & 5 - any help?

Yeh, I'm not getting #1 either.

ok, got 1, who's the guy in 5?

[7]what is it doing?

Wow, a lot of these are so regional I've never heard of them before. But finding the right list helped.

#12 is almost as good as conquistador. ;)

I have never got the following message before, "You got it! But we're not going to save your answer."

[8] Pietro Maximoff. Except you may need his nom du guerre.

[10] can't find a good comprehensive list

[8] He's a comic book guy the -Ag is the elemental portion of his name. He's pretty fast!

[9] It's just sitting there, judging from the picture. :) More like, what COULD it be doing? ;) Thanks.

[2] 12 is great!

[12] There are issues, try submitting a second time.

[14] TG sent.

hhmm [13] ok, that didn't work....there are no a's or g's in his name (either one that I can find)

50th and knew most of them. The cast of the 90's sitcom had me stumped but a quick search paid off. Fun one!

[1] think quite literally what you see.
[5] "Ag" is NOT 2 letters

Wiki helped me a lot for several of these. I hadn't even heard of 1, 5, or 14 before.

Top 100 for all four puzzles, none higher than 52nd... certainly a first for me.

[4] Thanks - I had the other one.

[6] Wikipedia has a list.

Nice idea, but, once again, strong regionalisms, and US-centric choices marr an otherwise good puzzle.

[22] ok, I know who he is and I understand the AG now...but I'm not finding anything that relates

You solved this puzzle in 0 seconds and were the 73rd Tanga member to solve it. Number 5 had me on the spelling....where I live it's spelled with a "K"

Need help with the donkey

Am I the only one stuck on #11?

[29] numbers are allowed [28] what is doing and Not doing?

TG on spelling please?

edit: fixed one o and realized my donkey was wrong....

almost had a 3rd top 100, but got 102nd

I think I know #17, but it doesn't fit with what I have for #5

never mind: post then solve!

[30] Ack! Thanks yelow! And to think the closet one to my house used to be that brand! It would have helped to have a human in a chair for that one; as it was, I tried "assgo" but for some reason, that didn't work! :-)

I though seventeen was race.... but it doesn't fit across

[34] think daytona international

[34] i started that way too... similar but faster

[33] I can't understand why it didn't work! glad I could help - you've helped me often enough - it's nice to be able to return the favor

any salt for #1?

There are three spellings for #5 - use the one with the "u"

[39] Where have you BEEN???

[38] None other than Sally Field did on TV what that letter is doing...

help I appear to have all and I think all are spelled correctly but I get a no go.

[40] nice to see you, too! Busy with family and work issues, so my visits are infrequent and untimely, but things should calm down beginning tomorrow.

feel free to TG me [42] I am going to bed in about 10 but will help any until then

[43] knew you had been on - just missed you every time, glad to see you back

[42] try spelling #7 like the celestial object, not your male child...

never mind

[45] glad to be seen - now if only I could catch up to your score...being dilatory has deleterious effects on my point score!

[45]

[41] thx - got it w/ ur help!

[48] lol - I'm sure you will catch up right quik - no doubt about it.

[46] thanks number 7 was not the problem #5 was

[52] #5 has been a problem all along!!!! at least for me...I had most all of them really fast, but 1 and 5 messed me up for a while.

All the regional ones take the fun out of the puzzle. Wikipedia is your friend, And #9 is not legit....they sell it, but it is NOT their brand!

That was fun, but I definitely needed Wiki help with a couple of brands that I had never heard of.
