Weekend Puzzler

A short while ago, I issued a little challenge to see who could come up with the name of the 100th country from which visitors came to peep in at the doin's here at DODR. At the time, Zendette requested the same when we hit the auspicious 108th country. Well, we have had such a visitor and so we'll have another guessing game, with just a single clue: the name of the country formed the title of a hit song by a major rock band in the 80's.

To narrow it down, I'll give you the intervening countries from #100, Cyprus:

101. Jordan
102. Costa Rica
103. Bangladesh
104. Algeria
105. Guatemala
106. Moldova
107. Sudan

So, you can eliminate Motley Crue's "Moldova Blues." OK, what's your guess? First correct answer gets a postcard with a cool stamp from Mongolia. My friend Lisa says that's a crap prize, but Lisa also says she's a "Fulbright Fellow" when in fact she ain't a fella 'tall.

Panama?

Check out the big brain on Jenn! Thought that woulda been tougher, but better men than me have been felled underestimating the power of Van Halen. My alternative clue was, "What country figures in a well-known palindrome?" A man, a plan, a canal, Panama.

Email me your full name and ground mail, Jenn, and a cool postcard'll be winging its way to you pronto!
