There have been a lot of questions asked over the years. It's hard to think of something original that isn't American-centric. Now that I say that, I guess it's been mostly Americans in this thread for the last year anyway. This thread is mostly just a tool to keep the forum alive and people checking in regularly to see if it's their responsibility to take a turn because they had a lucky guess.
I expect Roland to know the answer if and when he looks in. I was locked out for a while. My niece's cat pusskeyfooted my laptop, and my screen went black.
HINT- it's in Asia |

I cannot currently access HoP from home, and this is my first day in the office since last Wednesday. |

I'm going to punt. Someone else can post a question. Or you can just wait a few months until I have access again from home or work. |

Since Roland deferred, I'll ask a question.
Where is the Republic of San Marino?
Wait 24 hours before doing search. |

San Marino is an area within Italy. It is an old city-state that never was folded into the Republic of Italy in the 1800's. Its' leading export is Postage Stamps sold to collectors. |

Hint - It was the title of one of the songs he sang. Not his biggest hit but still a song he sang. |

Not it, nice try. That was the logical choice.
Go ahead and use a search engine. |

I did a search. Sinatra's tombstone reads "The best is yet to come" |
