    Since I posted the Animaniacs' Countries of the World earlier, I thought I should post their take on the US states and their capitals.

    Cool list. This one won't be as short as the last one *that's what she said*. In order of "visited":

    Louisiana * Slidell and I don't remember, but I think it was Vinton, 20 years ago
    Florida *Disney almost a city in Orlando, once more later
    South Carolina *Charleston, border patrol academy visit *shut up MoBalls*
    California * Anaheim, Disney complex
    Arizona *Tombstone, when driving back from Califas
    Massachusetts *Boston
    Nevada *Las Vegas
    Hawaii *Waikiki Beach last week
    North Carolina * in Charlotte right now, damn you long layovers. :(

    *I can't put Washigton, DC or Maryland yet as of this post*, but I will be there tonight.

    Driven through, laid over or stopped to eat, peepee or poopoo (there's your poop thread):
    Mississippi
    Alabama
    Georgia
    New Mexico
    Colorado

    Glad to see you don't have some sort of restriction like "more than 8 hours" or some crap like that... :p
