I was just shy of four minutes because I couldn't type them properly so I had to retype them.

And then I totally blanked on Arkansas. Like, totally.

But hey, I least I got them all in under four minutes.

Yeah I realized pretty quickly that I didn't have to capitalize them, so that took off some seconds.

Apparently living in Florida now has done some good things for my geography skills. I know all the southern states!

Anything under five minutes is pretty good, really. I declare you an American.

"I declare you an American."

Why thank you! :)

Seriously, I stared at that big blank space for what felt like forever until it came to me. I mean, exactly how often do I have cause to think of Arkansas? If it wasn't for Bill Clinton, I bet lots of people wouldn't even know it's a state.

Yeah, thanks to Clinton people know it's a state, but I bet they wouldn't be able to label it on a map of the U.S. But I think I'd have a real hard time labeling all the northern east coast states, so whatever.

I gave up.

For some reason, that tag makes me laugh.

Uh oh. Stephen Colbert would not approve.

My tag is straight to the point. Ha.

Damn, it took me so long because I completely blanked on Montana.

latara October 14 2007, 07:05:46 UTC

5 minutes 48 seconds, to be exact.

latara October 14 2007, 07:05:57 UTC

34 seconds actually.

The funny thing was, I thought Massachusetts was spelled Massachusettes and Delaware was Deleware, so that took up like fifteen seconds of me frantically trying to guess the right spelling. I'm surprisingly good with those tiny, obscure east coast states. ;) And then it said I had 2 states left and I was like... what? And then I realized I had Alaska and Hawaii to do. Haha.
