선유도 off the coast of North Chŏlla Province.

More precisely, it shows 선듀도, 무녀도, and 장자도, all technically in Kunsan city limits, though they are islands in the township of 옥도면.

By the way, Cloying Odor is listed twice with one point. Does he have two, or is his name listed twice as an accident?
This was a fun one. In the process of looking, I found several places I’d like to visit.

Photographic evidence, just to save anyone the time of second-guessing me.

I spent a good 2 hours trying to find this one…. without any luck. Although I also found some places I would like to visit. Road Trip weekend me thinks. I do have 2 points… it’s just broken in the listing for some reason.

#4,
Man, you’re like the kid in that old Eddie Murphy skit.
“I got some ice cream. You didn’t get none, cause you’re on the welfare…”

Is that the one where he does a bit on Mr. T as a homosexual: “I’m gonna punch up my butt cheeks and rip your di¢k off!”
Hey, TD, I was serious about trying to save some people time. No gloating involved. Please recall that last week there was some discrepancy for a few hours about whether my answer was really right.

What I’d really like to know is why Tom never participates in the Korea Finder. I mean, his childhood memories growing up in an undisclosed location in Korea should propel him to the top.

Kushibo did get the correct answer and these islands do look like a pretty cool place to check out.

Woo hoo!
Here’s a Hawaii Finder from last year I failed to drum up proper publicity about by liking to it here.

Fort Ruger
The page says, “post a comment” but there is just an empty space below it.

ChickenHead, what OS and browser are you using?
It is indeed Fort Ruger, though most everyone in Hawaii themselves would say it’s one of the stairways leading to the lookout at Diamond Head.
Have you been there, ChickenHead?
2:50 pm on June 25th, 2011 13
I am using Firefox and Win XP.
I have never been there.
3:58 pm on June 25th, 2011 14
Kushibo that is what I was about to say is that it is the stairs to the look out at Diamond Head. I have been there and is one of the best views of Honolulu.
Also your comment system is still not working. I am currently using IE and Windows 7 and when I type a commend and I click post a comment nothing happens.
4:20 pm on June 25th, 2011 15
Ah, I knew that one too…

Okay, there appears to be an issue with Windows and Blogger.
For now, I’m experimenting with getting rid of sign-in requirements but putting all comments in moderation (which I can usually do very quickly, except when I’m asleep).

By the way I am late with the Korea Finder again this week. I am going to post it at 0300 PDT in the US and 1900 KST on Friday instead.

Now you tell us. I’ve been awake for the past 36 hours, pressing command-R every fifteen seconds to refresh this page.

Thanks, kushibo 18. I didn’t know about command-R. I learn so much on this outstanding blog.

Glans, try pressing “command-control-power”.
