3. 31 ice cream flavors at baskin robbins
6. 3.6 volts in a lithium ion battery C?
and that's all i got for now.
unless the last one is 4 i's in mississippi, which would be lame.
10. 1 great lake for michigan?
6. C stands for cell. all the batteries say 3.6V or 3.7V on them, but really full charge is 4.2V. go figure.
4. 4 cardinal points of a compass
go geologist go!
8. 1760 Yards in a Mile.
12. 17 Sides in a Heptadecagon
that's all i got. these are kind of hard.
7. 64 Seats on a Charter Bus
I thought 7. was 64 squares on a chess board
i really like how we're each bringing our own expertise to the table.
i have a revised answer for 10.
1 giant leap for mankind?
are there really 64 seats on a charter bus?
9) 24 = Black Birds in a Pie
2) 8 = Reindeer Pulling Santa's Sleigh!
I'm not sure about my answer to number 12. It seems less clever than all of the other answers.
11. 21 dots on a die
all that's left:
1. 39= W P's J N
5. 48= C in a P D
13. 1= S D M a S
my guess of 1. is someone's jersey number.
ah. 39=willie parker's jersey number. but i had to google steelers 39 to figure it out. i think it's still legit.
yeah, i may have made up the charter bus. chess board sounds right. :)
i think (5) is really hard. i'll be surprised if someone gets it. but maybe it's just me and my lack of exposure to some things in life.
oh, and there is another answer for (12).
5. 48 cards in a Pinochle deck, but I used google to figure out what the P stood for.
so i guess that leaves
17 syllables in a haiku
1 swallow doesn't make a summer
yay for idioms.
