No, sorry.

Both correct. 5 time champ is incorrect as to King Timahoe.
Danimal, I already guessed Cherokee as to question 1011, back in post 1462. (Before 5 time champ, dammit :mad: 
).
Here’s another guess:
1019. “Farmers should raise less corn and more hell!”

RTC
Resolution Trust Corporation, bailed out the S & L’s in the 1980s- will we be seeing a similar organization soon? -
AID
Agency for International Development, Kennedy era agency for foreign aid

Both correct (RTC is now defunct, I believe, but we might very well see something like it to tackle the home mortgage crisis; AID is still a component of the State Department).
Danimal is right about the BOP, which is part of the Justice Department (or is it in Homeland Security now? Nah, I don’t think so).
