Here’s a rather jazzy puzzle. See if you can come up with the answer:
The phrase
“ACTUALLY TAKE THIS”
is an anagram of what
U.S. city-state combo?
HERE is the solution.
Salt Lake City, Utah. Woo-hoo!

Didn’t get this one. Too bad there’s no Thule City, Alaska, though…

Got one for once, I saw part of the city and realized it.

It helps that only two states could work in there . . .

Got it… Of course, it helped that there was a “jazzy” clue.

Hahaha Jen — I’m glad someone caught that.

Ok, was I the only one trying to use a two-letter state abbreviation instead of the whole word? Totally threw me off…

How about “changing mi snail” for lansing, michigan? I here it in my head like spongebob’s boss “I’m changing me snail, boy!” Ugh. Too much time with kids TV!!

Jazzy puzzles can be fun. I like the box; but sometime the puzzels are dull.
