I'm terrible at geography but I bet that having to stick all those magnets on a globe would help me remember.

On the other hand, I have argued with more than one Canuck teenager (...and my sister argued this with her high school social studies teacher) about whether there are 50 or 52 states.

Maybe they're counting Puerto Rico and... Guam?
Still, what's a state and what's not a state isn't a matter of opinion. We got 50, people.
