Good point. I've always considered Camus French and part of the canon, but these terms can be so problematic! Even if I had left the question wide open, I would have been surprised to see anyone respond with a work from Canada Africa or the Caribbean. But now I'll never know ;)

Name an iconic NYC landmark. Let iconic mean any place – real or fictional - uniquely associated with NYC and its 5 boroughs. You’d have to be way off base to answer wrong on this one.

Statue of Liberty — Singleton!
Captain Obvious

Everybody knows that's in Jersey. Sorry Captain O.

12. CORD CUTTING – 2016 marked my emancipation from the tyranny of a monthly triple-digit bill from Verizon Fios.
Name an original series created for Netflix, Amazon or Hulu. Many possible answers, but please note: I’m looking for an episodic series, not an original film. A series that originated on another network and then continued with new episodes created for one of these platforms is fair game.

13. BONUS – I’ve run a few marathons. Last November in Philadelphia, after 6 attempts, I finally met the qualifying standard for the Boston Marathon. The Abbott World Marathon Majors, originally known as the World Marathon Majors, is a championship-style competition for marathon runners that started in 2006. The series comprises six annual races in six cities. For up to 2 bonus points, name one or both cities missing from this list: Boston, Chicago, New York City, London...

FINAL STANDINGS

Thanks to everyone for playing! As always, I'd love to get your feedback on this TD.

Congrats to our winner dklee12 - the last to submit but good enough for first place. Didn't I say that the first would be last, and the last first? ;)

Congrats also to floridagator and 9021amyers for taking 2nd and 3rd! Well played!

And finally, congrats to Kevin S. who finished in last place! Let's hope he does better on Jeopardy! this week :P

I was absolutely going to put The Hockey Sweater by Roch Carrier until I saw the restriction. Have to try representing the homeland when I can.

Thank you for a great quiz, this was really enjoyable.

.... and for anyone who wishes to express their gratitude for my guaranteeing they finished in the top 36 by posting THREE consecutive wrong answers [*heavy sigh*], I do accept tips.....

Top ten is completely alright with me...although if only I'd gone with Argyle instead of Houndstooth (I figured a bunch of people would jump on the former considerably more-so than the latter...oops. :oops: ).

Merci beaucoup for a most marvelous TD!
