Re: Name all 50 States.
New Hampshire (it's in the news enough lately)
Vermont (New Hampshire's neighbor)
And I don't see Kentucky in your list, so maybe there's a dupe in there? Then again, I only got sleep in 45 min. chunks for the past 8 hours, so my eyes/brain aren't working so well this morning.

Re: Name all 50 States.
Maybe because you forgot getting banned from the UVA basketball discussion board. ;)EarlJam wrote:48. Virgina (geesh, how'd I forget THAT one?)
You know, once you are done getting yourself banned from each ACC school's basketball discussion board, you should try getting banned from the basketball discussion boards for at least one school in each of the fifty states.

Re: Name all 50 States.
Didnt the Pres or Congress or someone in DC want to add Puerto Rico to be the 51st state? Isn't there a bill to pass that? Would that be beneficial to the United States?
EJ..... CAN you name the Capitals of the 50 states, also???????

Re: Name all 50 States.
I googled Michigan. The capital is Lansing.

I would give you an A..... just for attempting to name the capitals. GREAT!!!!

This used to be a beer drinking game for us, so I remember most of them (I think). Maybe schools should adopt "beer drinking educational games" as a means to provide incintive to students?DevilWearsPrada2.0 wrote:I googled Michigan. The capital is Lansing.
