Asking the Brits to label the US states

[BDBoop]

I think the Brits did a better job with that map than most Americans would

Sad, isn't it.

Better yet, find out how many young Americans can get the 51 state (plus DC) abbreviations right....

Those changed in my lifetime. Used to be four letters - here, anyway. Don't know what they were for the rest of the states, but we went from Minn to MN.

"Modern two-letter abbreviated codes for the states and territories originated when the Post Office introduced ZIP codes in 1963. The purpose was to make room for ZIP codes in the address, rather than to standardize state abbreviations per se"

Lousyana is going to be pissed off. It's now Mississippi. What kind of crack were these people smoking and where can I get some?

They caught on to the fact that Ililnois, Iowa, and Misery are worthless.

He was a helluva guy, straight shooter, cared about every single student, had eyes in the back of his head, you name it, he was on the ball about it...
