Except for the typos...
A good number of very similar religious phrases too.
32. Looked one up because I couldn't remember the exact terms (#31), and I couldn't get #28, although after looking at the answer I probably should have. :-P

17 without trying *too* much
Losing interest now though. Suspect there's a bunch of religious references I won't get.

Not really.
Only 3 so far; it's just that they're all pretty much the same damn thing.

Noticed that
Got one of them, suddenly I'm at 21. Then quit. I checked the answers and found four or five that I really should have known, and some I never would have. Like I have any idea how many people on a rugby or soccer team. Or how many provinces in South Africa. Or a damn thing about Crickett. Chyeah, right. |

Pedant ... and this is *me* saying that
But since we're going down this road, should it be before or after the 's'?

Ahh, M-W doesn't find it without the apostrophe
I'd call that a shortcoming in their "near match" spelling system.
