More Time Wasters
From the Llama Guys:
--The ubiquitous state locator
--A version where the states disappear after you've placed them (ultra-hard version)
--The European version
From the Happy Dog:
--It'sJava Bowling
And from a number of people:
--The piggy personality test
Can you tell I've been writing my thesis again today?
Hey Ben-- I got 100% up to level 4 on the European one..... I still remember all that AD sh*t. Unbelievable. Beyond that, it's freaking impossible to place Liechtenstein or Andorra on an empty map properly....
Update: Here's another one, from Prof. Taylor:
The Ron Mexico Name Generator
(for those of you who need an alias for that herpes-spreading booty call) Mine is Victoria Monaco....
It's bad enough I'm addicted to bowling. You give me all these other sites to visit... ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Posted by: vw bug at April 27, 2005 07:01 PMAieee... that state locator where the previous states vanish is EEEEEEEEEVIL.
(Got 94% on the 1st one, 54% on the second. You'd think they'd put terrain features in. Sheesh.)

On the second... dunno if that's good.
