Re: FJs for the 3/11/24 week
No idea Monday
Confused myself on the UN country by thinking Peru was partially in the Northern Hemisphere and that U Thant was from Indonesia.

:mrgreen: :( :( :( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( Went with plutonium, although I thought the year too late. Unfamiliar with promethium.

I knew Ephesus was in Turkey, and was the only Epistle location that I knew for sure was in Turkey. I’ve been to Corinth and knew it was in Greece.

Turner on Monday, just to have something. No guess Wednesday, didn’t make the connection to the new states.
Tobruk instead of El Alamein.

I thought about East Timor for a bit due to the Dutch East Indies connection, but settled on Suriname as more likely.

I’m puzzled that Wikipedia tells me that this painting is in Rome, and that it is an etching of it made by someone else in the Royal Academy in London.
Still, I guess the key was to recognize the name and connect it to the artist, which I couldn’t do.

Re: FJs for the 2/19/24 week
worst week in a long time
Whooping cough, Mitt Romney, Siena
Did not realize Rabelais was as far back as the early 1500's, blanked on his name as a possibility anyway

Re: Thursday, February 22, 2024 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I said Siena too.
I noticed Archduke Ferdinand was accepted again as an answer. I wonder if using any of his other middle names would have been acceptable, like Archduke Joseph Maria, or using just middle names for other famous people?

The FJ! clue had me fail with the same name Alex wrote. In my head I was thinking concede and not grasping how "officially" the wording meant. It was a very bad clue, you kind of had to read the minds of the writers to get this one. Colloquially most would consider delivering a concession...

I thought cough was too generic to be the answer, and went with whooping cough, which I guess is too specific.

Locked in on Cook too quickly on Tuesday and didn't reconsider. No idea on Friday.

Never saw Jimmy Buffett. Did not know Black Hawk was a person.

I matched Michael with Abrams, but it didn't feel right. I feel like if Abrams had been a 19th century figure I would have known about him (turns out he was a general during the Vietnam era). Started thinking about helicopters toward the end of the time, but couldn't make it beyond Apache. In gener...

Re: Thursday, January 11, 2024 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I don’t think the art movement is specific to 1964, more like 1960’s.
I got this FJ off the clue of the day, without fruit scones but with 1964.
I think I also would have gotten it just with fruit scones and the year
