Well done so far, guys. Especially Jaytee nailing #3, I thought that one would be trickier. I'll give #14 to you Gaylon, but in the 80's he was John Cougar Mellencamp. Still, good work.

OK, that's 5. There's still 10 to go. Let's see who gets'em!

Your Pal,
Doc

Very good, all of you! I'm sorry about #12 Tanya, but Indy got it in first. OTOH, you did get those 2 others right.
That's 10 now, 5 to go. I wonder how long they'll take...

Your Pal,
