I can't believe you gave it up with Chianti. Such a rookie mistake. Also, you must know that the Arkansas slip cuts deep.
Nice job! I will definitely remember that Indianapolis and Anapolis are crapolis. :)
you should have used skittles
Since when is Texas a blue state?
Jeff: Love it bro. Never heard the capital song before. The vid did it more justice than it deserved ;)
South Dakota's capital is pronounced "Peer", as in "I peer into the darkness" or "peer pressure". It is not pronounced "Pee-yair".
Very cool. That is how to lose a bet with class! So the capital of South Dakota, although spelled Pierre, is pronounced like the work "pier" by locals and people in the know! Inquiring minds want to know. Or not.
Did anyone else notice that North Carolina (right at the beginning) was the appropriate shape, then somehow "morphed" into Virginia for about half of the song before someone noticed and the next frame showed it as NC for the rest?
This is absolutely fantastic...and accurate, too! I love the creativity behind this.
