Hello! Hope you're not too snowed under (mostly literally!)...

River horse - Hippopotamus

Death Valley - Um. Arizona?

Newspaper for US servicemen - no idea. I am, however, suddenly curious as to what cartoons it has.

Tiger Woods - um. Obviously nothing that lends itself to the sort of bad jokes I've been hearing about his recent history in the way that golfing does.

Vaporetti - Venice! Last time I was there I blithely arranged to meet my parents (travelling from a completely different country) at a vaporetti stop at a specified time with absolutely no back up contact, and it worked perfectly.

Beer - I think my answer to this question is something along the lines of "not famous enough".

Dyspepsia - this is where too much knowledge is problematic. I think they probably mean "indigestion", but "heartburn" or "reflux" would work for me.

"Mistake-out" - correction fluid? It used to be called "Twink" over here, which is not the best name ever.

PCs Limited - Dell?

Forwards/Backwards - palindrome. My favourite of all the ones I've heard is "Satan, oscillate my metallic sonatas" for sheer impracticality

Irish - Sinn Fein
