TUC-PHX-MSP-FAR

On the road again, I got to Minneapolis after a stop in Phoenix on Sunday and Flew out again Sunday night to Fargo..

here;s the unscripted question from yesterday: My taxi drive was from Sudan, and belonged to the Nubian tribe, the ones that built the pyramids, he was so proud that I knew that, ofcourse having been to King Tut exhibit this was fresh in my mind!

here;s my research:
"The Nubians (Arabic: نوبي‎, Nuubi) are an ethnic group originally from northern Sudan, and southern Egypt now inhabiting East Africa and some parts of Northeast Africa. The Nubian people in Sudan inhabit the region between Wadi Halfa in the north and Aldaba in the south. The main Nubian groups from north to south are the Halfaweyen, Sikut, Mahas, and Danagla. They speak different dialects of the Nubian language.

In ancient times Nubians were depicted by Egyptians as having very dark skin, often shown with hooped earrings and with braided or extended hair.^[1] Ancient Nubians were famous for their vast wealth, their trade between Central Africa and the lower Nile valley civilizations, including Egypt, their skill and precision with the bow, their 23-letter alphabet, the use of deadly poison on the heads of their arrows, their great military, their advanced civilization, and their century-long rule over the united upper and lower Egyptian kingdoms.^[2]"
