Tul, my weird question meant, in other words, "are you in the eastern half of Nebraska or the western half of Iowa?" but now that we know you're in Nebraska:
are you north or Omaha? |
I the get the Q now. Sorry went to a MNF party last night and ended up with a bunch of depressed Packer fans. Not sure if these guys drink more or less depending on winning or loosing.
I'm south of Omaha. |

|

|
Nick- West

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...I/22768030.jpg |
No, I'm not. But it looks interesting.
|

|

When I said a little west of North Platte I really meant a little. |
east hershey state wildlife management area?
|
no, not a wildlife park.
|
buffalo bill state recreation area?
|
I'll take that. Was looking for "Scout's Rest Ranch." But one's in the other... I think.

|
maybe i am...
|
would you be in Nova Scotia?
I want to go there, it's so beautiful! |
i would not...
but, i've been there - the places i visited were borderline desolate, but i've had the best fried clams in my life at a little bar on the southern coast near port moulton... |
clam up and just answer the questions! ...mmmm, I love fried clams. Well, I love raw clams, too.
are you a Newfie? Before I pass into the wild blue yonder, I would like to drive the Targa Newfoundland. http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...jt/TargaNF.jpg |
i'm not a newfie, and you can't paint my german porch, either...
|
I guess I'm hunting for you through the Maritimes...are you in New Brunswick?
|

|

|

|

|
south...
|
if you knew Mary like I know Mary...might you be in Mary's Harbour?
|
Quote:
I got no guesses right now, will drink on it. |
instead of more coffee, perhaps have a siesta.
|
mary's harbor is in newfoundland, i believe...
|
So, just to be clear... are you on the Labrador Peninsula?

Sleep has been a problem of mine for years, not even on a first name basis some weeks. |
i am on the labrador peninsula...
the one that borders quebec... |
how about Venison Tickle? ...that sounds kinda cute
|
i am not ticklish...
|
by the way, unc, as far as I can find Mary's Harbour is in Labrador. Perhaps I can take this as a clue that you are north of MH since you thought it was in Newfiedom
So are you in Cartwright? |
no...
|
are you in a coastal town?
|
Are we looking for a town?
|
nick - no
tully - i'm looking for an installation but i'll settle for a "town..." |
might you be at the Carol Curling Club in Labrador City?
Curling is so cool! I first saw curling in person when I went to Sarnia, Ontario on business, and they have a real nice large curling club there that the guys belong to, so we have usually lunch and after work drinks there. |
east of lab city...
and i love to watch curling... |
are you at CFB Goose Bay Airbase? ...the first place outside the U.S. that a Space Shuttle ever "landed"
|
i am, and it's also the first place i landed when i caught an IG flight to europe back in may of 1967...
desolate country, but beautiful scenery...and cold... yugo, nick... |
:) wild guessing pays off again!
give me a bit to figure out my next destination, please and thank you. |
Margaritaville?
|
kokomo...
|
I know I can do the kokomo shuffle in Margaritaville...in fact, as soon as I have one too many that's what I do. But for purposes of this game, I'm not at either of those fine locations.
OK, where in the world am I this time? |
NH?
|
yes
|
wh?
|
Sofa?
|
I'm in NH/EH so not on the sofa this time....I almost gave you a clue but deleted it until you get closer to me.
|
Europe?
|
africa?
|
not europe and not africa ...maybe try southeast asia
|
Ok, southeast Asia?
|
or, asia proper?
|
sorry, not s.e. asia, but yes in asia proper.
|
china?
|
not in China.
|
landlocked country?
by the way, i will be away from my keyboard from sometime this evening until sunday night or monday morning. time for our annual roadtrip to sunnier climes... |
have a nice sunnier climes trip.
Not a landlocked country. |
border on the indian ocean?
|
nope
not much of a clue yet, but where I am has the largest something in the world |
Nepal
|
not Nepal ...which is landlocked btw
this largest thing is man made |
Sorry missed the landlocked Q.
East of 120? |
yes east of 120E
|
One of the Korea's?
|
yes sir I am ...in the largest man-made thing of its category
|
New Songdo City
|
damn, Tul...I didn't even know what that was so I looked it up. In light of this, it's an excellent guess but I am not in S. Korea.
This 10-year development project is estimated to cost in excess of $40 billion, making it the largest private development project ever undertaken anywhere in the history of the world. The project aspires to make the city and South Korea the preeminent business hub of Asia. When completed in 2015, the city's infrastructure will be a test bed for new technologies, and the city itself will exemplify a digital way of life. "It will be one of the world's first cities in which all information systems - residential, medical, business - are linked." |
Ryugyong Hotel?
|
after looking that one up, I see it's another great guess but I'm not at Ryugyong Hotel, either. You are in the right town, think "sports"
The Ryugyong Hotel sometimes anglicized as Ryu-Gyong Hotel or Yu-Kyung Hotel is a skyscraper intended for use as a hotel in Sojang-dong, in the Potong-gang District of Pyongyang, North Korea. The hotel's name comes from one of the historic names for Pyongyang: Ryugyong, or "capital of willows". Its 105 stories rise to a height of 330 metres (1,100 ft), and it contains 360,000 square metres (3,900,000 sq ft) of floor space, making it the most prominent feature of the city’s skyline and by far the largest structure in the country. It is currently the world's 28th tallest building. If completed on schedule, it would have become the world's tallest hotel. Construction began in 1987 and ceased in 1992, due to the government's financial difficulties. The unfinished hotel remained untouched until April 2008, when construction resumed after being inactive for 16 years. |
pyongyang arena?
|
You're back and you found me!...hmmm, sort of.
I am at a stadium in Pyongyang, but the official name of the place is Rungrado May Day Stadium. The stadium can seat 150,000, which is the largest non-auto racing stadium capacity in the world. Rungrado May Day Stadium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2.../building5.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...0I/11w82zs.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...I/39360015.jpg I was surprised when I first found out that Pyongyang Arena is the largest sports arena in the world....not including automotive venues which are actually a lot larger. For example, Indianapolis Motor Speedway seats ~250,000. It seems North Korea has a huge problem feeding its people, so perhaps they figured if they build a huge stadium, at least the hungry people can get ball park franks and popcorn there??? |
After a little research I figured Phil had it nailed so I didn't guess.
So Phil... Yellow Knife Canada? |
