You really have to split up Illinois into two states: (1) everything above I-80 and (2) everything below I-80. Southern Illinois is like a whole 'nother country compared to the Chicagoland region.

nickmitch - if you're going to answer the question, do it right. DC isn't a state. ;)
Decoyman - I said Nebraska.
Everyone is forgetting Iraq... Aren't they a state now?
Anywhoo, for those who don't get the 60 joke do a Google Search for "57 states". Should come up.

I'm pretty sure he meant 47. Cut the guy some slack. He's been talking nonstop for the past year.

I'm not going to go into one of those tinfoil hat rants about 57 islamic states, but this was a pretty big oopsie. It ranks up there with some of the "misunderestimated" guy's.
If someone can't operate at a reasonable level because of lack of sleep, they probably shouldn't be hired for a job where they're going to be put in a position where they may have to go long periods without sleep but will still need to be at peak mental capicity.

or he could have meant 57 states and provinces/territories, but I don't know what the total number is on that. Probably 54 or something. Anyway, he was in the big OR when he made that goof (specifically in Beaverton). Go Ducks!

Even though it's Washinton, D.C. it's actually two places within the same borders. D.C. is where all three branches of the Federal Government are.

I lived in California, Nevada, Idaho, Nebraska, Kansas, and New Mexico, aside from those I have been too North and South Dakota, Wyoming (HATE IT) Utah, Montana, Indiana, and the MO side of Kansas City once when I went to Worlds of Fun. Now if you asked me how many HOUSES have I lived in, only God knows that one, we move A LOT, probably more than most people here. Hell this year alone I have already moved twice and am close to my third move already.
