Only 2 more to go:

7. As I was going through the woods, I found something, picked it up and couldn’t find it, ran home, looked for it, found it, didn’t want it and threw it away. What was it?

22. What is it that may be lost yet at the same time its location may be known?

(and believe me, the answers are sillier than you could presume. )

It will be at least a couple of days before I can post, so if anyone has one ready to go, feel free.

Movies based on novels and short stories
Okay, I think some of these are pretty tough, so approximate answers will be accepted. Name the original book/story title and author that the following movies were based on. 1 point for the title, 1 for the author.

1. Schindler's List (1993)

2. Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)

3. Babe (1995)

4. Blade Runner (1982)

5. Goodfellas (1990)

6. Apocalypse Now (1979)

7. It's a Wonderful Life (1946)

8. Die Hard (1988)

9. Once Upon a Time in America (1984)

10. Rambo: First Blood (1982)

11. Clueless (1995)

12. Homeward Bound (1993)

13. A Simple Twist of Fate (1994)

14. Straw Dogs (1971)

15. Tarzan (1999)
