In a cab ride on my way to the Solana Beach train station, the chatty driver decided to play Trivial Pursuit with me. He said, "I will give you a free ride if you can guess where I am from?"
I felt sorry for him as he'd would be out $30-$40, but I thought "You are on, buddy!"
He gave me three guesses along with three clues:
1) Birthplace of mankind
This clue threw me for a loop, as I immediately thought of mummies and Egypt! --Wrong!
2) Most beautiful place in Africa
I dunno. This clue was sooo subjective. South Africa? --Wrong again!
3) One of two countries that speak Swahili
Oh! I got it!! Tanzania!! --Wrong yet again! I guessed the wrong one! D'oh!!
After all that, it was Kenya, home to the President-elect Obama's father ...

haha that's pretty neat. Hopefully you'll get him as a driver again so you can get a free ride!
