7 Ws of the W = ...

[Compass]

7 Ws of the W = 7 Wonders of the World

A science teacher in junior high gave us a list like this, and I had fun slowly filling it in. Later in life, I searched it out on the interwebs, and found a much bigger list (below).

There are 110. I'm pretty confident with my answers for about half of them. I have guesses for a handful more. Feel free to work through the list together here, or copy it, and work on it on your own time. I like to do things myself, and I'd like to finish the majority of the list someday when I'm old and shriveled with only my own smarts to thank, so I may not come back to check this thread.




Two Rules:

1. I'm sure you could google the answers in two shakes of a lamb's tail. If you want to spoil the fun for yourself, or if one of them is just really buggin' ya, it's your prerogative to do this. Just don't post what you find in this thread. You can only post answers/guesses that sprung from your own gray matter.

2. Post answers/guesses in spoiler format thusly:

7 Ws of the W = 7 Wonders of the World
I'm not sure about this one, but I think I'm right, but who knows, I could be wrong, or partially right, blah blah, etc.

So, don't spoiler the clue, but do spoiler the answer/guess. Spoiler your thought process at your own discretion (probably should if it's too revealing). This means that there will be lots of spoilered text in this thread! That's okay.

Alright, have fun. Here ya go:

1000 W that a P is W = 1000 Words that a Picture is Worth

Nice catch. That one is worded for backwards that I don't think I would have gotten it.

[Glass Joe]

I am clearly missing one letter.

Have

***edit*** Yoshi is right, it's has.

[bbobb]

I kind of glanced, but why has no one gotten that:

1001 A N = 1001 Arabian Nights?

[Gooch]

Have

***edit*** Yoshi is right, it's has.

I see. It doesn't sound right but it has to be that.

I figured a few more out that are still unanswered, but I'll leave my guesses as they are.
