Findlay would be me.

Are the mad mullahs monitoring the Possum Papa? Maybe they're looking for those not-so-direct diplomacy tips.

I don't know who in Tehran is reading, but I'm glad to know someone is.

Dakar, Singapore? I never saw a neighborhood in Singapore called that. I guess the most famous Dakar would be in Senegal on the west coast of Africa. Anyway I like both Singapore and Bali a whole bunch. IMO some of the bestist vanilla in the world comes from Bali. Not to mention the great food, dance, very pretty women, unique music, wonderful women and lots more. Oh I need to mention that the girls in Bali and Singapore are wonderful! :-)

I thought it was weird, too, but that's what the ol' Sitemeter coughed up:

Continent : Asia
Country : Singapore
State/Region : Dakar
City : Singapore
Lat/Long : 1.2931, 103.8558
Distance : 9,924 miles

Go figure. Anyway, Singapore sounds nice. I've heard the wimminfolk are nice, but that might just be something I'm remembering wrong. Dis you by chance have the opportunity to do any research on the subject?

A Gentleman would never talk about the "wimminfolk" of a country. Thank the FSM I'm not one. Anyway I like'm... A LOT. They, on the other hand run away from me... Do you think it's coz I'm a LSU alum? Goux Tigers!

What ever you do, don't out any of them by "outing" any of them. Every time I tried that, the reader promptly found better places to be.

Better update things - they've decided last I knew that Bombay was now Mumbai. And the Mrs. has relatives up in Rye, but I don't anticipate them being Possumblog readers.

I guess that one in Australia must be me, but you've hit me about four suburbs shy.

I hope guided missiles don't work like that.

I mean I hope they do work like that.

Tony, I'm sure it has nothing to do with being an LSU alum. ::snicker::

And Nate, I've given up on trying to get the lurkers to stand up and say hey, but I figure it won't hurt to mention their hometown.

Dan, the Bombay/Mumbai thing seems to be related to whoever the ISP is. I've gotten both spellings before in the Whois report, so I guess it just depends on who filled out their registration paperwork. Go figure.

And Kitchen Hand, I think these are actually NOT you, but other Australioids--these were all from up during the day here, which is the middle of the night tomorrow for you (or something) so you were probably asleep and your neighbors were having insomnia.

I like living in Tomorrowland. The flying cars are cool. And the dogs are made out of robots.

Bloody show-off.
