[Shinra]

lol i got the 1 about the 4th of july and the dozen.... that's it :-( again, American Public Schools: Producing kids who get 20% and talk about Danishland :-)

[Megalobrainiac]

I didn't get the outs in an inning... Maybe because I'm totally not into sports, and especially not baseball which isn't a big thing in Sweden. Not even a small thing. I guess you just have to know the rules of it to be able to join the Swedish national baseball team

Also - question number 10 is a question about belief, and personally I don't believe that anybody had an ark (in that sense), but there might have been a bloke called Moses that had an ark and brought his two dogs, one of each sex... Who knows? It was just not interesting enough to be in the Bible (or any other holy book for that matter), because the only thing they did was to go out on some boring fishing trips in the Red Sea to catch some trout.

I just loved the Danishland remark. Especially since Denmark and Danish has been mentioned quite a lot in the Lost Experience since Alvar Hanso is Danish and The Hanso Foundation is located in Copenhagen*.

* Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark

[Shinra]

haha yeah I had an interesting experience w/ that, I was tryin to reply to someone in that section who said he was Danish, and im not joking i went to wikipedia and looked it up. I went there and searched Danish Copenhagen and it came up. But im a moron and forgot

[Megalobrainiac]

Haha! That's amusing.

Can you spot which one/ones of these is not a country?
- Nepal
- Moldova
- Europe
- Brazil
- South Africa
- Kenya

[Shinra]

Europe... and Moldova

Nepal has some Olympic record i believe. I've never heard of that mold place, but I have mold in my attic.. Europe is a continent cuz it's in the continent song. Brazil is in south america, South Africa is the only country i know in Africa, and there's a really funny song on AlbinoBlackSheep about kenya, or I wouldn't know it either.. keeennnnyaaa ooonly in kennyaaa we have the lions and the zeeebra

[Megalobrainiac]

Well, I'm happy that you didn't say that Europe is a country...

However, Moldova IS a country... And you said that South Africa is the only country you know in Africa? How about Kenya? You even knew that it was a country.

But Moldova is a quite new country - from the former Soviet Union.

[Shinra]

Kenya's in africa? OH YEAH it shows that on the flash. lol

[Megalobrainiac]

Maybe we should do something about the education in your public schools

[Shinra]

haha obviously. It's a good thing u didnt ask about any of the other african countries or middle-east. The U.S. is in the middle of a huge crisis with the middle east, and I'll bet 1/4 of our population can't point to it on a globe, and 3/4 can't name more than half the countries there, myself included.

uzbekastan
palastan (i think thats a country...)
afganastan
iraq
iran
some place that starts with an S that harbored ppl from iraq...

Korea's not in the middle east is it...

[Megalobrainiac]

Eh, no... Korea is located in northeastern Asia.

I guess the "Palastan" you wrote is in fact "Pakistan" - a country that, yes, is in the Middle East. A country beginning with S? Saudi Arabia, maybe?

[Shinra]

Syria actually. I just looked at a map... dang there's alot of them things there

[Megalobrainiac]

"Them things"? As in "countries"? ;D
