Ok this is where the tires hit the road. My dad collected globes so at a young age I was running circles around my 4th and 5th grade teachers. They took it well and let me bring in globes to better educate the class on how indefinite boundaries can be.

I remember my dad spinning the globe and putting his finger down on a region and we had to name the capital or natural linkages.

Too bad Bush didn't visit this before the 2000 election season.

I bet he spins the globe and the lucky country that his finger lands on gets bombed.

Not surprisingly, the US is lagging badly in the medal count. Myopia is a terrible disease...
