ChumFM has their Summer Search for Mazdas on again. And I've been enjoying playing along; I even guessed the first location (although I never got through on the phone).
But the second location upset me a bit, mostly with a few of the clues. Normally, they're vague, but direct you towards the location. This one, didn't quite fit the bill:
9. The Swiss and the Italians, they do not hide it.
And the Brits and the Russians, can’t see inside it.
Well, you can imagine how many things went through my head - what do the Swiss & Italians not hide, that the Brits and Russians can't see inside??
As it turns out, the location is the Confederation Bridge. And the explanation? "This clue tells you that it’s not in Switzerland, Italy, Britain or Russia."
Um. what?
I guess if the "IT" is the car... ok, fair enough. Maybe I'm overanalyzing some of the clues. It's fun to play along... but good f-ing luck getting through on the phone. Even with all our technology & redial, blah, blah... most of the time if i call from work, I end up with a fast-busy signal, which means all the phone network lines are tied up. I can't even get a line through to tell me that it's busy, let alone get a busy signal!!
Anyway, clues start today for car #3. It ain't no Miata, but a free car is a free car. I'll try super-hard when it comes to the "Secret Car" (could it be a Miata??)
