So, I just recently found out not too long ago that we had 50 states...did you guys know this? blink.gif I even double checked on the American flag to make sure there were the right number in stars...and there were 50...my life is a lie.

I could've sworn there were 51! I mean, didn't they base the movie 51st dates on how many states there were? _unsure.gif

Yeah, I've heard about that too.

Jane, sweetie, I think you're talking about 50 First Dates, not 51st Dates.

Aren't there a couple states that aren't "officially registered" or something, though? I think Texas was one, but I don't remember exactly.

I can do that in one breath! Did you guys never learn the song when you were little?

OH MY GOD THOUGH. My headmaster once delivered a Monday speech about something to do with America, and he mentioned there being 52 states, and I remember gasping out loud, and being shhed by my head of house... I'm fairly certain he was thinking 50 + Alaska and Hawaii, rather than the latter two making up 50 altogether, but still. I was appalled.

For those of you who want to go a step further than Rebecca's education:

^ I know, I love it too. I actually made a note to learn it with the intent to sing it to people at work in order to annoy them.
