I've been there.  Gideon hasn't. Carthage Hannibal is the main clue there. Sidi Bou Said is gorgeous.

I debated eye-liner, but went with Mascara. Guessing this is an easy question.

I think I know this from one of the Civilization games as you can build an SDI in each city to protect it from nukes.

I had no idea. Hopefully Gideon didn't watch the Tony's for the sake of LL. It sounds like something he would do.
