I have to know them or I will fail American History................wait I already am failing American History american history? why do you need to know the state names for history? And, on a side note, to that, many of our states (and their capitals), especially on the East coast, take their names from British people and/or places. I learned all 50 states by watching the Animaniacs.

lets see... could be because of historical events that founded those reigons, or things that happened in them, there is alot of reasons to know all the states when you are recearching history...It helps to know them more over mainly to keep tract of everything going on in such a massive massive landmass Example: Michigan and Ohio had a small war with each other over who controlled Toledo.

aye, tis very true...
and it's funny how everything back fired, when England first colonised the US..they sent the Scots to deal thinking the " savages" would kill eachother off,, but Ironically the Scots and indians got along VERY well because culture wise we are alot alike..
which is why we helped them alot when the Indians had little fights against the english, and such,, payback for Kinslay, culloden and such
oh and back on topic the vikings are getting slaughtered.. * lol* I love having satilite to get the NFL way out here

yeah, Culpepper is hurt. The Vikings are really going down in flames this year. It is quite fascinating to watch.

LOL, sadly enough I may be related to them, I have Harringtons in the extended Clan..
HALFTIME
DEN 28
Phi 7
Denver scored 4 unawnsered TD's until the last 2 minutes of the second half..
Mc Nab has only completed 4 passes
And the phi Defence has NOT been able to stop Anderson, OR Bell... or even Plumber when he runs...
so looks like a slaughter in the making, but lest see the second half
