Can You Map the Fifty States?
No, really, it's fun. Jim's "Know Your States" quiz asks you to place an outline of each of the fifty nifty on a blank map, tracking the average distance you err from the actual location. It's like a high-tech version of our "Draw the 50 States" game. Don't be intimidated by our final average error of nine miles (um, after the round pictured below) -- we listened really well in seventh-grade geography. Come on, drop the cool mask and just play. Post your score in the comments!

I quit early because of my stupid laptop pad. I couldn't make it in one move on many of them without lifting my finger and they counted it as wrong grrr... I'll try again when I have a real mouse. I will admit, like someone else, that my idea of Arkansas was way off lol.
