I think part of my time was due to crappy typing and part of it was due to my carrying on a conversation with B. Meh.

Oh yeah, and completely forgetting Colorado.

Mood: chipper

Yeah, I had 3 minutes and something, but it was all typing... :)

Isn't that frustrating? My mad typing skillz are gone. :(

I went and did the England one that was linked down at the bottom of the page. It took me over 11 minutes and I had to look up about 3/4 of them, but it was both fun and educational... :D

I tried to do Asia, but failed miserably. I missed nearly 25 countries, partially because I'm clueless how to spell some of them. I'll have to keep my eye on this site to see if they have any other quizzes.

I didn't see Asia but I went and found Europe, which I failed at miserably, mostly because off the former Yugoslavia, and South America, which I got, but just barely (damn you, Suriname!)

Ack, I'll have to look for Europe. I didn't see that one earlier. Eesh!

I suck. I missed about half of them, partly due to spelling, and partly due to never hearing about some of them. Ugh! ;)

Yeah, I sucked at both of those. Wow.

I think it's time to brush up on my geography. ;)

Wha? Just sayin' I suck? ;)

Yeah... I don't know how the heck I could have forgotten Colorado. It's not like it was just the last state I remembered... I mean I completely blanked on what state could possibly be there! I wasted a LOT of time on that. :(

You don't even want to know how bad I did. And I was typing so fast, I misspelled a lot, so that slowed me down.

I could probably do europe faster since I'm not a fan of the US

I was having some serious problems with my typing last night, but Colorado was really the main reason my score was slow (well, I forgot about Rhode Island because I couldn't see it).

I used to be good at all maps of countries/states and their capitals. I had a prof in college who required we learn a new map for every test we had to take, maps that didn't even really pertain to our class (American History - he was making us learn maps of other continents). I loved that man, but I don't remember a darn thing. :(

I think the only reason I knew the states as well as I did was because of all the travel I've done for work and the support I've done for work in the past.
