And shame on you for forgetting Les Nessman and Venus Flytrap!<br /><br />Sarah, no Coolidge or Roosevelt.<br /><br />You're right on Warren G Harding, and again on Major League.<br /><br />Frank, I'm not sure how you moved up the list, but it happened.

And, Coolidge. I'm not sure on the last two.<br /><br />And, I don't know if this is the state you're talking about, but Georgia (On My Mind), Sweet Georgia Brown, The Devil Went Down to Georgia, and Midnight Train to Georgia are all classics, in my mind.<br /><br />As for other states...there's that Arrested Development song Tennessee, Yellow Rose of Texas, and, of course, sweet Johnny D singing Take Me Home, Country Roads in which he mentions West Virginia.<br /><br />5, I think, is Kent State.<br /><br />Pink Cadillac by Springsteen, and Elvis. And there's that song from Miss Saigon which is sung by the Engineer and has him wanting a pink cadillac. I don't remember if the word is in the title.MJenkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12761003604210840898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5781586185594177386.post-78651760558609428962010-05-13T11:03:30.349-04:002010-05-13T11:03:30.349-04:00Jenks, figured I'd see you on that one.

Reminds me of the scene in Forrest Gump where he's naming all the guys in his platoon and where they're from. <br /><br />And at 16 2/3 points, you're just ahead of Mjenks in grading, but most of these you only win the right to be smugly satisfied that you know more than other people. Go check out last December's contest though for an idea of how prize-driven quizzes work...Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13623810021177960310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5781586185594177386.post-15796172094644808132010-05-13T10:46:06.143-04:002010-05-13T10:46:06.143-04:00I'm really hoping that Grover Cleveland was on...I'm really hoping that Grover Cleveland was one of the Presidents, because I love it when things work out that way. <br /><br />In no order, and answered only partially: Kent State, Drew Carey Show, Pink Cadillac..<br /><br />What'd I win?Brutalismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07659884369597107148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5781586185594177386.post-22883983458746237172010-05-13T10:07:11.482-04:002010-05-13T10:07:11.482-04:00I know nine.
