Re: TD 382 - CLASSIC AREA CODES 8xx (807 & 808 REVEALED)
Who is the Patricia Portion named after? I haven't been able to find a source that indicates who it was named after. Was it Princess Patricia of Connaught?

Yes, that was her. Granddaughter of Queen Victoria. There is also a Canadian military unit named for her. Princess Pat's Canadian Light Infantry.
Kenora is not an acronym but a portmanteau of the three places that merged to form it: Keewatin, Norman, and Rat Portage.

I asked my wife, who grew up in Thunder Bay, lived there until she was almost 30 if she'd ever heard the Patricia Portion term. Nope. I love learning stuff!
I eat chicken. That's what I do.

809 - CARIBBEAN
809 used to be the area code for all of the North American part of the Caribbean. (Some of the countries are included with Latin America.) Now 809 only serves the Dominican Republic. Name an island country in the Caribbean. No mainland country is acceptable.

Re: TD 382 - CLASSIC AREA CODES 8xx (809 & 812 REVEALED)
Oh geez..... Classic example of RTFQ. I saw state as country and then read parallel, disregarding the number, which reminded me of the Korean peninsula. I forgot to read, you know, the important parts of the clue.

Entities that issue stamps? Hell, that would mean I'd have to accept Redonda as a correct answer.

I wasn't sure of the definition of "island country", so I stayed away from countries like Sint Maarten because it is only part of an island.morbeedo wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 10:42 pmI thought exactly the same.

I went sports for Florida and picked Pompano Beach recalling one of my favorite bowlers from back in the day, Bob Handley, was from there. For the baseball I picked left field since I played that position in my recreational hardball & softball experience.

St Pete's Beach is found many times on the web indicating it's a local variation. Miamo Beach is just wrong. I know it's a typo, but is that fair to all the people who get emanciptated of their low scores over Kahloowe, Helio Catroneves, etc.

Re: TD 382 - CLASSIC AREA CODES 8xx (813 & 814 REVEALED)
I'm OK with a neg if you need to be precise; I did use a localism which is not strictly accurate. When I was stationed at MacDill, we lived in St Petersburg and recreated at what was then the separate city of St Petersburg Beach. For some reason, the local nickname was St Pete's. That way, I guess, people knew from you saying "St Pete" or "St Pete's" whether you were on the mainland or on the island. After we left, the island town officially renamed themselves St Pete Beach to better differentiate the town on the island from the city of the St Petersburg. Old habits die hard.floridagator wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 12:25 pm St Pete's Beach is found many times on the web indicating it's a local variation. Miamo Beach is just wrong. I know it's a typo, but is that fair to all the people who get emanciptated of their low scores over Kahloowe, Helio Catroneves, etc.
I'm not the defending Jeopardy! champion. But I have played one on TV.
