What a World!

Can you name the 192 United Nation member states in 10 minutes?!! Andy S has created an online quiz to test your wordly knowledge.

I got 70, but only because when I was a kid I memorized that song Yakko from Animaniacs sang, "Yakko's World."

Other techniques I used...
- I thought of where some of my old friends went on their missions.
- I thought of foods I like.
- I thought of places I have been or would like to go.

While you're at it... Can you name the fifty, nifty, United States of America in 10 minutes (I know some of you can... we were all there together in elementary school... NEW! hampshire, NEW! Jersey, New Mexico... bum bum...)? Ironic Sans has put together a states quiz for you to test your skills on. Don't cheat!!

I got all 50 states in under 3 minutes!

Now, don't you feel smarter? Good.

Excalibur!

Special thanks to Maggie Mason (a.k.a. Mighty Girl) for pointing us in the direction of author Evany Thomas, who has written a book entitled The Secret Language of Sleep: A Couple's Guide to the Thirty-Nine Positions. On Ms. Evany's website there is a sleep test for couples to take so they can find their ideal sleeping position.

I was spooked after I took the quiz because the position that came up was EXACTLY how Paul and I already sleep most of the time. Yes, we move around a little bit at night, and eventually end up back to back or spooning... but we always start in THIS position...
