Go read "Ishmael" a novel by Daniel Quinn. It will literally change your life.

Flickr link to Q#20.
My hosting site has been unreliable recently, but I prefer direct-linking the images here. I will continue to do Flickr as needed.
Looking ahead to March, is there interest in another round? If so, are there suggestions, improvements? (Other than "don't let fieldshowqueen play"; I've already heard that one.)

OK ... tell you what ... I won't "officially" play the next round but will give Hostrauser my answers on the side just to see how I do. If that's not OK, I'll need March off anyway. I'm trying to do the scholarship thing for Brat #1.

Correct Answer for #21: Venezuela
Pictured is Mount Roraima. The world's tallest waterfall, Angel Falls (hint), cascades off a different "tepui" mountain known as Auyantepui. But the strange tepuis are a feature of the Venezuelan highlands.
"Mystery Player X" has been first on each of the past two questions and is quickly closing the gap on Fieldshowqueen.
Question #22 to be posted later today.

Like I said waaaaaaayyyyyyyyy ^ and many pages ago ... "winning" is not the object in my mind ... if I lose I lose ... but it's not a contest without some competition. I'm learning a lot and hope someday to visit some of these places.
BTW ... Yesterday was pure hell so I didn't even get a chance to really research this last question.
