    wasting time

    Have some time to kill? Think you're smart? (I know most of you are).
    How many tries will it take you to pass this 3rd grade test?




    Took me 5 tries, I don't know the location of all the states in the northeast, never visited that part of the country.

    Piece o' cake

    I love geography. Did real well in school. In fact, I have been to 42 of the states, and at age 19, I drove from Maine to California.
    What a long strange trip that was.

      What a stupid test! Proves nothing!

            Damn... he's right! That's the Upper Penninsula of Michigan. I was trying to throw those little states like Deleware and New Hampshire in there.
