    Impressive, I'm thinking you guys were stamp collectors.
    I tried the "name the countries" quiz again, only got 57 this time. I'm beginning to think my zig-zag, no rhyme or reason way of listing the countries is not the way to go.

    Never a stamp collector. I should have been a geographer as much as I like mapping, using compass, and navigation. I had a globe while I was on ship and pretty much would track our voyages. People thought it was funny, but they would come by and they'd be checking out that globe all the time.

    I was at 49 states with 6 minutes to go and could not think of Minnesota.
    I finished with 3:38 left.

    I had 97 countries and then my brain just went blank. I cannot believe I did not get Kuwait!
    I was just there less than a year ago.

    I cannot pull up the cities here at work due to a filter.

    Fun stuff!

    *High five* 49 states in 4 minutes is not bad, not bad at all.

    I named the 50 states in alphabetical order in 2 min and 45 seconds. It&#39;s one of those useless knowledge things I learned as a kid

    Impressive, but can you do it without the open book?

    Ha Ha!! I was looking for something about a Singapore hotel post and I found this post about naming states. Then I went back to view this again:

    Haven't seen this before... got it with 8:19 remaining. Helps to have good typing speeds (even if I had a bit of an off couple minutes) and learned the Fifty Nifty United States song when I was in elementary school.
