i thought it was cheat be cuse the rest were rivers and i was thinking cheat as in cheat coads
Didn't know that about directions. Good one.
what are you talking about - the answer is obviously "the nile" 'coz it's the only one i recognise
I used to live in Oregon where the Willamette River is. After doing some research, I found there were several Rivers that travel north. Thanks for the comments.
How is it that a river can run north...? Something to ponder... Maybe down from a mountain range? Great teaser!
You sure got me stumped on this one and, as sweetime, the only one i knew about was the Nile. But hey, i learned a new way to look at things. Keep them coming as this was a great pice of trivia.
I suprised myself and got this one right this could be a tougher teaser but you know I must rock jp... but not really!
