    Success on my first attempt. :-D "Looking at cleavage is like looking at the sun. You don't stare at it. It's too risky. You get a sense of it and then you look away." Jerry Seinfeld

        I got Texas, California and Florida first time, and after a few attempts got Louisiana, Kentucky and Alabama thanks to stereotypical jokes, and Colorado thanks to Southpark. :~

          47 out of 48 on first attempt - Not bad for someone who isn't even American. I wonder if an American could do that with the 32 administravive divisions in Scotland (or even the current 15 EU countries)

              I double checked here with my friends at the office: The map that everyone here learned at the 3rd grade was this Perl combines all the worst aspects of C and Lisp: a billion different sublanguages in one monolithic executable. It combines the power of C with the readability of PostScript. -- Jamie Zawinski

                    Click a state name, and drag it to the proper state shape. Let go, and it will show wrong (x), or right (it sticks). "For all of our languages, we cannot communicate" - Christy Moore, Natives

                    No love for me... clicking on the states does absolutely nothing. I can't drag, or anything. Strange... :( Remember, even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

                        That fixed it - and I finished with time to spare. :cool: I could probably do Canadian provinces too... European countries, maybe... one of, say, Africa, though, and I'd be toast. :eek: Remember, even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

                          Funny, I'm fine with those (being from Massachusetts/New Hampshire) but those dang rectangular states always blend together for me... blueSprite:rose:
