I LOVE MAPS!! I know it's a weird thing to be into, but I am. I love knowing where I am in relation to everything else. Every time we have moved to a new state/city I get out the map and start analyzing. That being said, perhaps I was more disturbed than most Americans by the question and answer given in the Miss Teen America pageant by the contestant from South Carolina. UM........seriously I was speechless. See for yourself!
Actually, the statistic was highly disturbing, but the answer was completely comical. I understand people are really flustered, but c'mon!!! I'm afraid she might be one of the 1/5 they were talking about. 
Here is a picture of one wall of my playroom. I'm determined that my kids be proficient in basic geography!!

I love these maps you have! Where do you find ones that are this size? I have seen them in magazines, but for 100's of $$$. Thanks for the good laugh too! You could see the big smile on the man's face(was it Mario Lopez)! So funny!
you can find the maps every once in a while at Costco. I think I got three for $15!!
I love the idea of putting them up in the toy room. I'm always getting such ideas from you!
this is so hilarious......AND so embarasing. that poor girl! i don't know what i would say either but i hope it wouldn't be THAT!
I think that Jodi & Bo did a wall in their boys room with giant back to back maps a few years ago. You are of such like minds. Brilliant!
Kara-
I love the map idea. I was just saying to Matt that we need a globe or something because Luke keeps asking me if pictures he sees are in 'our world'. I love the map idea.
Bytheway... we did find out this week what we are having and it's a girl. We are so excited and I will post on it after I have my official size and date ultrasound in a few days. Just to be sure!
