Explain all swiss politics to me in less than 60 words and with subway surfers on the bottom of the screen. You're the only person from the Nordics I know so I'm asking you.

Ask a silly question...

[The party gathers at a crossroads to discuss their route. Tidus: “Er, how far is Zenakent from here?” Wakka: “We cross over light of hallucination river we will reach Samuel which belongs to Chubby race.” Lulu: “Then we go through the Lei plain to the Mclarney temple.” Yuna: “Before that, we should visit the Chaucer temple first and pray there.” Tidus: “You can rush to Zenakent directly. Is that okay?”]

Let’s see if I understand the story here … if you reach the top of Maine’s Cadillac Mountain during autumn or winter, you can see the sun rise over the United States for the first time that day?  Hot damn if that isn’t a great excuse for a road trip.  I’ve been hoping  to take a long journey to Maine with a couple of buddies of mine in New York — this would be a perfect destination.

Washington, D.C.: Not just a city in Maryland.

Since moving to San Diego, it's come to my attention that many Americans need a geography refresher. A brush up on US Government 101 wouldn't hurt either. 

To the many people that have seen my DC license and/or license plate and commented that they had always thought Washington DC was a city in Maryland or Virginia, here is a quick refresher from Encyclopedia Britannica: 

"Washington, in full Washington, D.C. (“District of Columbia”),  city and capital of the United States of America. It is coextensive with the District of Columbia (the city is often referred to as simply D.C.) and is located on the northern shore of the Potomac River, at the river’s navigation head—that is, the transshipment point between waterway and land transport. The state of Maryland borders the District of Columbia to the north, east, and west, and the state of Virginia borders the District on the southern shore of the Potomac River."

You're welcome, America.

It's actually the Isthmus of Panama that separates North and South America, not the Panama canal. The canal didn't exist when the boundaries between the continents was made. They relied on the Isthmus to divide the continents.

Thank you very much on that one. I appreciate it.
