So I chose the GNR since it was followed by the whistling, making it more distinctive...)

And because it's Fanny's favourite G 'n R song. Right? Right????

Because you look so fine and I really wanna make you mine Are You Gonna Be My Girl - Jet
About .000584933 seconds before I clicked on "submit" Dammit! The Annie Bonus!!!!!!1 went off in my head. I really do need to start previewing again before I post, iPad be damned......
9. Zwei drei vier
one two three
Its easy to see Der Kommissar - After the Fire (Anyone who said Falco should be shot by Major Hochstetter...)
Seriously? I put Falco just for you because I thought this was one of your stock OHW rants about how Falco was better. It was just a guess anyway, going from the German. I almost put Taco, because I always get those two mixed up, that probably would have gotten me some f'in Beiber points.......
5 Point Bonus: In the 1987 movie "Spaceballs", what number is left out of the computer's final countdown to Spaceball One's self destruction? - Seven
See? Logic is never the way to go on a Mel Brooks question. I should have just stuck with my favourite number. Which, despite common thought, is not 33. It's 7. My favourite quinela to play at the dog track was always a 5-7 which, coincidentally enough, is statistically the longest shot on the board. At least it was back when they used to print the quinela odds history in the programs. I don't know if they still do that any more, or if they even have programs these days.......
