Yes Nunavut is pretty new, and Newfoundland is offically "Newfoundland and Labrador" now although I always just say Newfoundland.

Woo hoo -- did it with 07:12 left. I admit I tried it twice before, and ran out of time before I could come up with Utah the first time, and Delaware the second time. Bah.

Forgot Arkansas. And I just drove through there last month on my trip from NY to Dallas. Oops. It was forgettable, at least the parts I saw. :)

I got 87 and recognized most of what was left. But I have to admit there are countries I've never heard of.

It interests me that Bermuda isn't in the UN.

I couldn't spell Arkansas. For some reason I was thinking that instead of the s sounding like a w, that there was a silent w. I was trying things like arkwansaw and I felt really stupid when I realized I had it backwards. Anyway, I ended up just googling how to spell it since I couldn't figure it out on my own. It took me the whole ten minutes and I didn't get Alabama, Iowa, or Wyoming.

But that was fun.
