What do you think when you hear the words, “United States”?
Ambivalence
- Hegemon
- New birth of freedom
- Individualism gone berserk
- Lofty ideals
- Opportunity
- Smugness
- Some of my best friends are American 🙂

(And I’m doing a lot better than the average Australian.)
So, who do I got to apologise to?
(Looks it up.)
States I forgot:
- Missouri
- Utah (WOW)
- Kentucky
- Arkansas
- New Hampshire (WOW)
States I misplaced:
- CO
- IO
- NE
- KS (not KA)
- TN
- MN
- VE
Honestly? Better than I expected.
