1448 - School on Saturday

Here's a fun thing to do on Saturday. Check your knowledge of countries the Middle East. It's a fill in the name on the map puzzle. I would show you a picture of the map but it's a PDF so I can't upload it.

When working the puzzle I got buzzed about 10 to 15 times. The trick is process of elemination. Fill in the ones you know for sure first. Then start guessing.

That was kind of difficult. The Stans always mess me up.

I started with Egypt and then Saudi Arabia thinking I knew where they were. It took me 2 or 3 times each to get them.

J - I saved them to the very last.

B - So you're not a mapaholic?

I had about six red x's to start with. Got them all within about 10 minutes. I totally guessed at Western Sahara, Mali, and Mauritania.

C - I thought I saw some thinking smoke rolling out of your computer room.

I messed up the Stans and the last couple in Western Africa (Mali, Western Sahara, Niger). On the whole, not too bad...who can keep all those Stans sorted out, anyhow?

vw: unridar - not ridar.

B - I'll bet you knew Afganistan. It's right next to Turkey, right?
