I use LEXIS-NEXIS for my work. A search for "anaphylaxic" brings up 118 hits with repeats, but mostly from news/wire articles. Here is one from UPI
Could you do a search on "Democrat Party"?
I had no hope at all because I said prophylactic shock and was too busy hitting myself to notice the mispronunciation.
1959 and guitars led me immediately to Bonanza, but I quickly realized that the Bonanza Theme was written by the songwriting team of Jay Livingston and Ray Evans. It was not based on any kind of classical piece written specifically for guitars. So I switched to Twilight Zone. That team won three Academy Awards for Buttons and Bows, Mona Lisa and whatever will be will be. It may be of interest that the Bonanza Theme originally had lyrics. They were aired only on the premiere telecast, after which some NBC honcho decided it was the dumbest lyrics ever written. For the next 14 TV season it was an instrumental.
I wonder if that Millennial group of contestants has ever heard of Bonanza, Lorne Greene, or Michael Landon. They probably don't even know about the Bonanza and Ponderosa chains of restaurants.

Any reason I should know Harlem is north of 110th Street? That seemed like overspecific knowledge for the top box.
Jeopardy's East Coast bias has locations of landmarks in New York City coming up frequently. It is worth knowing that Central Park runs from 59th Street to 110th Street and from 5th Avenue to 8th Avenue, which is also called Central Park West.
We chased lady luck till we finally struck - Bonanza
With a gun and a rope and a hatful of hope
We planted our family tree
We got ahold of a potful of gold - Bonanza
With a horse and a saddle and a rig full of cattle
How rich can a fella be?
On this land we put our brand
Cartwright is the name
Fortune smiled the day we filed
The Ponderosa claim
Here in the west we're livin' in the best - Bonanza
If anyone fights any one of us
He's gonna fight with me
Hoss and Joe and Adam know
Every rock and pine
No one works, fights, or eats
Like those boys of mine
Here we stand in the middle of a grand - Bonanza
With a gun and a rope and a hatful of hope
We planted our family tree
We got ahold of a potful of gold - Bonanza
With a houseful of friends where the rainbow ends
How rich can a fella be?
On this land we put our brand
Cartwright is the name
Fortune smiled the day we filed
The Ponderosa claim
Here in the west we're livin' in the best - Bonanza
With the friendliest, fightenist, lovingest band
That ever set foot in the promised land
And we're happier than them all
That's why we call it - Bonanza -
- Bonanza -
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.
