Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska,
New Hampshire, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont.

I got them all accept for Massachusetts, I couldn't spell it :whip: |
Did you write Massachussets too? It took me quite a while to write it properly... and I gave up on writing "Mississippi" also :D
Actually I gave up after 5 minutes, having failed to come up with the last 11 names - Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Iowa,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi and
Vermont.
I certainly wouldn't remember Vermont. The others are states I could point on the map, but it's quite hard to know what you're forgetting without a visual clue :p |

Mississippi is easy to remember if you say it like a rhyme.
em eye es es eye es es eye pee pee eye.
Massachusetts took me FOREVER to try and get right too. |
