Bored? Like riddles? Want to save me from going insane?

I found these on my computer today. They've been around awhile so maybe you've seen them. A series of equations matching numbers to common things: ex. 7 = D in a W would be 7 Days in a Week. Simple enough? Have at 'em (and let me know if you get #19).

1. 26 = L of the A
2. 7 = W of the W
3. 1001 = AN
4. 12 = S of the Z
5. 54 = C in a D (with the J)
6. 9 = P in the SS
7. 88 = PK
8. 13 = S on the AF
9. 18 = H on a GC
10. 32 = D F at which W F
11. 8 = S on a SS
12. 200 = D for P G in M
13. 3 = B M (S H T R)
14. 90 = D in a R A
15. 4 = Q in a G
16. 24 = H in a D
17. 1 = W on a U
18. 5 = D in a Z C
19. 57 = H V
20. 11 = P on a F T
21. 1000 = W that a P is W
22. 29 = D in F in a L Y
23. 64 = S on a C
24. 40 = D and N of the G F
25. 80 = D to G A the W
26. 2 = # it T to T
27. 101 = D

Sick and ashamed and happy (and Holy Virgins? Horny Vixens? Hawaiian Volcanoes?),
