    48 in 4 mins
    49 in 5 mins (total)

    forgot..
    Minnesota
    . I'm an idiot! I was thinking "I should imagine all the states my friends are from.." then I thought of 2 and decided that was useless. I would have hit the guy from there within like 10 people.

    Max, I remember the same song. But for the last 15 years, I've only remembered it through
    Maine
    ...soo after that, I had to goo by imagining a map ;)

    I got 42 out of 50. Not bad for a Canadian, I think! :) I wonder how many provinces/territories the average American would get right.

    I got nearly all of them in like five minutes. Then I spent the remaining five minutes trying to figure out how to spell Massachusetts. I never did succeed. :(

    The ones I missed were:

    Alabama, Illinois, Massachusetts (knew it, but couldn't spell it), Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, West Virginia.

    42 of 50 also. Until I ran out of time.

    Spelling killed me! connecticut, pennsylvania, massachusetts...even north dakota messed me up. Ended up cheating by openning up a word file to check spelling...
