          lol, that was the one square I that I was worried about

          this was really fun, but some clues kinda got me... i believe 34A should be clued "_B-G_N" // 35A should simply be "United States" // 44A would have been clearer to me as "countryman's" or "agriculturalist's existence"

            34a seems wrong to me.
