3. sounds like a 'living' veterans society of some sort. Its proper name is unknown to me... sorry.

Ooh, some tough ones here. Only #2 Jewel is correct. #6 is close but not quite right...

4. Computer viruses?

5. Churchill Downs

I thought that was just the name of the race track???

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

For all I know, it is!

 

[Stop Laughing]

Disneyworld is right, it's totally different from Disneyland, only a few thousand miles difference. My dad did take us to Disneyland after breaking his promise to take us several years earlier to take us to Disneyworld, he took his GF instead.

Churchill Downs is the racetrack, I'm asking for the city though.

Computer viruses are not it (they usually have weirder names than that anyways) and #3 has nothing to do with widows.

1.James Dean
6. San Diego

 

[Stop Laughing]

Sorry, #1 is not James Dean, he's not a veteran actor as he only was in 3 films if I remember correctly before his death, this actor is still alive, one of his most recent movies was Speed (I don't know if he's been in any since). #6 was answered already, Disneyworld.

 

[PostCode]

Dennis Hopper. I think that's how you speal his last name.

1. Sal Mineo? 'veteran' and 'unusual' are both too subjective to narrow this down properly.

3. An association of veterans of the Union Forces of the Civil War formed in 1866, the Grand Army of the Republic was made up of men who served in federal service in the Army, Navy or Marine Corps, and included at least one female member. Membership in the Grand Army of the Republic was open only to men who had fought in the Civil War in one of the Union forces and as a result, when the last member died in 1956 the Grand Army of the Republic ceased to exist. The Allied Orders of the Grand Army of the Republic were then formed to preserve the memory of the men of the Grand Army of the Republic.

 

[Stop Laughing]

Dennis Hopper and Grand Army of the Republic are correct.
