    I'm assuming it's after the Labrador region of Newfoundland, Canada. Like the Labrador current.


    Yes and no.

    Labrador is wrong but Newfoundland is right. The breed was named Labrador as there was already the Newfoundland breed, but it has nothing at all to do with Labrador which is across the water from Newfoundland itself.

    This is a very easy one. I can never think of a decent question when it's my turn, but when it's not I get the best ideas ever... pity they promptly vanish when I need them...

    Didn't she die at age 35-36 or maybe 37?

    I'd say 32, perhaps.

    Yes, I thought he was younger when I was first asked this but he was 43 when he became president. Your question.

    I refuse to publicly acknowledge that I may know the answer for the above question.
    However I must say that I DO like the style of the question. Hopefully we'll see a few more of these.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.
