Tully Mars 06-05-2008 04:38 AM

BadNick 06-05-2008 05:38 AM

Tanzania is close, but no cigar....as far as I know, "cigar" is NOT a clue ;)

Leto 06-05-2008 05:38 AM

BadNick 06-05-2008 05:44 AM

But I'm not in either of those.

Tully Mars 06-05-2008 05:48 AM

Uganda?

BadNick 06-05-2008 06:14 AM

not Uganda. And now you're moving out of my neighborhood.

Tully Mars 06-05-2008 06:17 AM

Tully Mars 06-05-2008 06:45 AM

Zambia?

uncle phil 06-05-2008 06:59 AM

dar es salaam?

BadNick 06-05-2008 07:41 AM

wow, you guys are beating on my front door...but you're not in my house yet...Zambia is more like next door but Dar Es Salaam is practically my front door.

Tully Mars 06-05-2008 07:50 AM

I guess I'm out I always thought Dar Es Salaam was in Tanzania. But I've only heard of the place one other time, so?

Leto 06-05-2008 08:27 AM

are you looking for a city? Dar es salaam is in Tanzania (old Tanganyika before it merged with Zanzibar)

BadNick 06-05-2008 08:42 AM

I wasn't looking for a city. It's a country. Since Leto, mentioned Zanzibar, he's up next since that's the place.



The country of Zanzibar is part of the East African republic of Tanzania. It consists of the Zanzibar Archipelago in the Indian Ocean, 25–50 km (15–30 mi) off the coast off the mainland. There are numerous small islands and two large ones: Unguja (the main island, informally referred to as "Zanzibar"), and Pemba. Zanzibar was once a separate state with a long trading history within the Arab world; it united with Tanganyika to form Tanzania, and still enjoys a high degree of autonomy within the union. The capital of Zanzibar, located on the island of Unguja, is Zanzibar City, and its old quarter, known as Stone Town, is a World Heritage Site.

Leto 06-05-2008 08:54 AM

Interesting. So it is considered a different country from Tanganyika... I have to increase my country count in Africa by 1. Although my tally of land locked countries in Africa remains 15 - tied with Europe ever since Eritrea split from Ethiopia. (Okay so I'm a Geo-Geek)


Alright folks, Where the hell am I?

pig 06-05-2008 09:18 AM

Umm, didn't Uncle Phil guess Zanzibar in #253?

Leto 06-05-2008 09:49 AM

he did! I defer to Phil.

BadNick 06-05-2008 10:54 AM

Yes, I also just noticed my error.

Sorry uncle phil, you had it a few posts ago...I don't know how I missed reading that.



...I also just thought that if this was the "real world" we might have a major war over this "misunderstanding" instead of just correcting it and moving on. Hurray for us! ;)

uncle phil 06-05-2008 12:35 PM
