07:47 it took me a few tries to spell Massachusetts right.

I never learned that song either. What is it to the tune of?

That state placement one really seems to depend on the order. I only had to place colorado and arkansas without having a nearby state to guide from, and I got a lot of edge states early on, so I got a 48/50, 7mi. avg miss in 188 seconds.

All this proves is that I can't spell.


I already knew that. [Wink]

I never remember Indiana and Missouri.
Here's a link to the Animaniacs' State and Capitals video.

I missed Delaware, Indiana, and Vermont.

Funny that I missed the state where my best friend lives! [Smile] I got his home state, though. [Wink]

Second time through I got them all, but with only about 30 seconds to spare! [Razz]

I'm surprised no one's done www.geosense.net yet.

50/50 with 4:08 left. Wasn't so much I couldn't remember them as I lost track of "where I'd been."

I don't know any "memorize the state" songs either, Animaniacs or otherwise.

And on the drag and drop -- 46/50 perfect. Average error 5 miles.

Fun stuff!
