You can get most of them by right-clicking the image and looking at the URL in its properties. Most of them contain text to help ID them. I don't see Earl helping you with that!

I DO do that to help me figure out images where I'm unsure what I'm looking at. About half of the images in question had generic urls, so it would have been a more complex hunt to figure out how they tied in. Since it was irrelevant for the scoring, I didn't bother to pursue them further (And besides, I knew Frank would give me the answers)...

So you want to play, do you? What the hell, I've got a couple more hours until my mom gets out of surgery.....

1. The theme was not capital cities, it was state capitals. I don't see Tegucigalpa up there....

2. My image was the opposite of literal.

3. You're just mad that you didn't think of it. Want some peanut butter with that jelly?

4. You got some JJCP for misspelling Concord, so shut yer piehole.

5. If there were points to be docked, I'd save them for the people who give 48582033 kroxes when they are asked to provide one.

6. Ha!

Yes, I am trying to keep you (and Anon, of course) from winning by withholding the IBB from you. Weasel was the first one to win twice this year, so I must be favoring him as well! I fully expect the FBI to begin an investigation into this crooked LSWE any minute now... and when they try to grill me, I'm just going to invoke the Hottie Rule...

Damn, I'm gonna have to remember to keep misspelling stuff or I'll never win.

Sorry. I believed you when you said you run them all through Google Images...

I think all but 2 of those had at least 1 name in the URL.

I did, but rejected it.

Concord? That was a visual clue to Boston...

You're just mad because you thought there weren't many eclipse songs. Want some cheese with that whine?
