91.) Desert druid and awakened snakes

EDIT:
92.) Ancient temple
93.) Enormous (huge size) mutant poodle. Has breath weapon and eye lasers.
94.) Dung beetles. If anyone in the party has a background in politics, law, or business the beetles attack and attempt to eat them. They're little threat however, not enough of them for a full hp swarm.
95.) Blue dragon fighting a brass dragon
96.) Salt flats. Possibly inhabited by dessicators and/or water necromentals (see Libris Mortis).

out of curiosity, why do you need to fight that dragon?
Its lair is in a mountain near our base, as well as close to several villages nearby. It's apparently just woken up from a long nap and decided to snack on the surrounding countryside.

Might see if I can get a Rod of Piercing Metamagic added to my Calcific Touch. Should speed up the process significantly if I only fail to beat the Spell Resistance on a roll of a natural 1.

Howzabout desert encounters next?

97.) When night falls the temperature drops and that's when the ice mephits come out

98.) A full set of cherry livingwood armor on top of a ruined house. Provides an arbitrary protection bonus over whatever the party's carrying, but only when the full set is worn.
 98a.) A very powerful stave on a rack near the armor that requires someone to wear the livingwood armor to pull it off.
 98b.) The livingwood armor also requires a small potion to activate, as it's very stiff and provides an AC penalty otherwise. This potion is in the basement, behind an easily-opened locked door.
 98c.) Upon taking the potion, applying it to the armor and taking the armor away from the house, a small black dragon appears and attacks.
 98d.) The livingwood armor happens to provide a significant resistance to the black dragon's breath weapon, and the stave does extra damage to it.

99.)  A cake sits out in the open on a small table, looks edible enough.  Dessert in the Desert.

 99a.) Upon touching the cake, a pure energy golem appears. It simply says "The cake is false," and the cake reveals itself to be an illusion cast by the golem. The golem gives the party [# of party members] x 100 gold each and then leaves.
100.) A cake sits out in the open on a small table, looks edible enough.
 100a.) This cake is actually real cake.

100c.) This Endless Quench extends to beneficial liquids as well, and they can't drink potions because nothing happens.

But they constantly feel like they have to pee, due to a combination of magical hys=dration and magical diabetes.

101.) Some sort wheeled ship appears. You're being attacked by sand pirates.

Alright, that's enough desert encounters, though people are of course free to come up with more. So for the next encounter table, I propose dungeons:

1) You meet a goblin, who offers to show you a secret passage in exchange for a bit of gold.
2) Troll stampede! (Or whatever kind of monster DM prefers.)
3) You come across a supply shop. Don't try anything funny.
4) You find an underground lake, which may or may not contain a giant squid.
5) You discover some sort of dungeon town or city, with houses made of scavenged bits and monster parts.

6.) After a lengthy fight between some bandits in the dungeon, the party comes across an incredibly tall orc with no shirt and at least ten abs. For whatever reason, he's permanently oiled up. And actually not trying to murder them. And really likes bear hugs.

7 ) The leader of the orc bandits offers single combat instead of a bloody melee that will see him and his kin killed. His choice of duel: pro wrestling. They even have a ring set up.

7a.) The party wizard can, should they have the right History knowledge, convince the orc bandit that pro wrestling is actually fake. The orc concedes he knew, and just really wanted to try out his pro wrestling moves.
 7aa.) Should the party pro wrestle him after the knowledge check, he kicks their ass into the goddamn ground and then gives them a sick greatsword after.
