Didn't I have the same problem during your round? (Confusing islands of the pacific to the caribbean, for instance...)

Yeah, well read back through the posts a bit, you'll find you have a long way to go to catch up with me on the number of times in getting turned around. Hell, I've done everything short of guessing other planets and the moon.


No.

Mars?

M&M's actually... they melt in your mouth not your hand.

Seriously not on Mars. But M&M's have an interesting history. First introduced as a candy for US troops in WWII.

Are you along an oceanic coastal area?


PS...very sorry, Tul. I thought for a minute I was in the "Who In the World Am I" thread. Hey bud, I hope I'm not taxing your good humor...bad jokes R-me and the hair net thing...almost made me post up the true fact that as a young entry level teenager I used a hair net so my "do" would stay put during my nocturnal emissions.

Wiki seems to think there are 5 oceans in the world:

Ocean - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am not along one of those oceans according to my map. My map seems to think I'm on a strait not an ocean.


Oh, and you'd really have try hard to offend my sense of humor.

Are you along the Straits of Malacca?

No

Palk Strait?

Nope.

Dardanelles - Istanbul

Are you west of 70deg longitude? ...that approx. runs through the western side of India.

No

I'm completely east of India and west of the DL.

Makassar Strait?

No.

Bering Straits?

No, the strait I'm on is completely west of the IDL.

Tul, is the strait related to Japan?

hormuz (sp)?

Related to? As in a sister or something?

I guess I'd have to say your getting warm.

No

palk strait?

No, Nick was really warm when he mentioned Japan. Though I am not in Japan.

Are you on Korea Strait?

Yes.

pusan?

Yeppers!

Wonder if George Strait is playing there this weekend?

It was Pusan when I was there, now it seems they call it Busan. I was actually surprised to find I couldn't find it on a google map once I picked it as a location. It's the second largest city in South Korea and it's main port city.

Another port I spent time in back in the 80's while cleaning toilets on the USS Cape Cod AD-43. Shopping was big there. I must have brought back 50 pairs of Nike shoes, all different sizes for family and friends. The shoes were being sold right outside the gate of the factory for about $3 a pair. Bought a full set of luggage for under $50, which was well made and lasted nearly 20 years. Also had a nice suit tailor made there for $26. After the Navy I used that suit for job interviews and eventually, once hired, for important meetings and court dates. I still have that suit and recently I've been able to fit into it again, too bad it's wool and doesn't really work well here in Mexico. I hang on to it, like many fashions it's gone in and out of style several times over the years. It works well if someone in the family is getting married, buried or going to jail. While moving down here I found an unopened box with a pair of Nike's, my size, in a closet. They, unlike the suit, are not in style. Screw it they're comfortable and I use them to walk in the morning. My good friend down here saw them one day and asked if that the latest style in the US. I of course told him "why yes, they are."


You're up fellow Parrothead.

ok, find me...

NH?

Can you see water from where you are?

tully - yes

gd - what kind of water?

Salt or fresh, enough to swim in but not a pool. Enough to be considered for a position on a general map as opposed to a puddle or reservoir.
