Question 688: Too Old for the Chorus But Not Too Old to Be a Star

Examination of old property records has identified the plot of land occupied by the __X__ as extending from the west side of modern-day Southwark Bridge Road eastwards as far as Porter Street and from Park Street southwards as far as the back of Gatehouse Square.The precise location of the building however, remained unknown until a small part of the foundations, including one original pier base, was discovered in 1989 beneath the car park at the rear of Anchor Terrace on Park Street. The shape of the foundations is now replicated on the surface. As the majority of the foundations lies beneath 67—70 Anchor Terrace, a listed building, no further excavations have been permitted.
A modern reconstruction has however occurred 230m from the original site of __X__.

Question 687: Beezlebubbly isn't she

Namesake of the novel, the __X__, is a pig's head that has been cut off by Jack, put on a stick sharpened at both ends, stuck in the ground, and left as an offering to the "beast". Created out of fear, the __X__ used to be a mother sow who, though at one time clean, loving, and innocent, has now become a manically smiling, bleeding image of horror. Near the end of the book, while Ralph is being hunted down, he strikes this twice in one moment of blind anger, causing it to crack and fall on the ground with a grin "now six feet across" This transformation parallels the transformation that Jack and the boys have undergone during their time in the island. The name "__X__" is a literal English translation of Beelzebub, a demonic figure that is often considered synonymous with Satan.

Question 686: D'uh My God

THe __X__ is a traditional device bought out every year during this time by the British tabloids, specifically the Sun who claimed to have invented it. Over the years, it has widely believed to become an indispensable tool in the arena, the latest use of which happened yesterday. Not much is know about this (a Wiki article doesn't even exist), but the __X__ has is a talking point of the said annual event in England.

Question 685: Thats the way I Roll

Arguably amongst the most well recognized internet trolls ever conceived, ___X__ was purported to be the brain of 4chan & eventually spread all over the net, mostly to the website __Y__ where it was a way to deal with heavy internet traffic.

Question 684: And all that jazz!

__X__ is an open source online store management system using the Django web application framework. It was initially designed as a Python based project in order to avoid some of the perceived common pitfalls and shortcomings of similar PHP based projects. The Django framework was chosen as a foundation because it provides a number of useful, robust, tested features. It is freely available under the BSD License.
