[edit] 100-91, Not a clue

100. "Read my leaps" (6,1,4), by George Bush I.

The clue is an anagram of "My leaps, dear", which refers to Barbra Bush's pussyleaps, the origin of the answer, "George W. Bush".

99. "Let my people go" (7), by Moses.

The people of Moses are The M People. If The M People can't go, it means that they are mute. A dog is also mute, which leads us to the answer, "Pharaoh".

The answer is to kill Leonardo DiCaprio.

97. "How can Wikipedia be usefull?" (0), by everyone.

The answer is the empty answer.

The answer is "Some" (As in "Some threesome!").

The clue is partly an anagram of "Can you undig it?", which gives us the answer, "Uncyclopedia".

[edit] 90-81, More creepy than cryptic

Kelly is Kelly from Beverly Hills 90210, and the answer is "Blond Cunt".

89. "Billion Dollar Babies stole the Oscar from The Aviator" (0.001), by Alice Cooper.

Stealing is a negative action, so it should be read in a reverse form: The aviator from the Oscar. The meaning is the vibrator shaped like Oscar Wilde's dick, which is a billion SM long and costs one dollar. So the answer is "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

88. "Check it out 3 times & it will still look like fucking Bullshit" (7,9,4), by Anonymous.

Check it out is "sea", "sea" is C, 3 times C is CCC, so we have Cryptic Crossword Clue, which leads us to the answer, "Idiotic paramedic dick".

The answer is "Fuck, this is the answer! of course!"

86. "Chicago, Cut the bullshit!" (5), by Michael Jordan.

If we cut the word bullshit in two, we'll get "Bulls-Heat". So the answer is "Miami".

85. "Singer, Don't look back in anger" (7,6), by Oasis.

The answer is "God".

The answer is "Jesus".

81. "The notion of a solvable group in group theory allows us to determine whether or not a polynomial is solvable in the radicals, depending on whether or not its Galois group has the property of solvability. In essence, each field extension L/K corresponds to a factor group in a composition series of the Galois group. If a factor group in the composition series is cyclic of order n, then the corresponding field extension is a radical extension, and the elements of L can then be expressed using the nth root of some element of K" (1), by Albert Einstein.

The answer, upside down: "x".
