[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by egmurphy</i> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: fec153: OK, whats the capital of Wisconsin?[/quote] <br />I laughed at the blonde joke like usual. Then I thought to myself, Self, how many of the state capitals can you name? I used to be pretty decent in geography, although state capitals were never my forte. <br /> <br />Anyway I wrote down my list of the 50 states. That was easy as I can mentally picture a map of the US and just go through the map naming the states. Then I started to write down the capitals. A bit trickier. About half I knew right off. About 25% I had to think a bit. And there were quite a few that I had to guess at!! Bottom line is that I missed 11 out of the 50. [:0] That’s only around 79% correct, so I wasn’t real pleased with myself. [V] What’s really embarrassing is that I missed 3 in new England and I grew up in Connecticut!! However I get extra credit because I can name all the states in Mexico and all the Provinces and Territories in Canada. Don’t ask me about their capitals! <br /> <br /> <br />Ed <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />http://www.funforwards.com/funpages/view.cfm/4716 [:D] [}:)] [;)] <br /> <br /> <br />Practice, practice, practice.
