Not every girl is horrific with directions and geography, nor should she be. Most can follow a map as well as any man, after all map reading isn't rocket science.

Airplane tickets are cheap and so are cruises, go see the world, or if all else fails, look at a map of the world.

How can anyone comprehend what is happening in the world if they haven’t studied geography?

Every person should at least be familiar with the U.S.! Didn't we all learn the capitals of the States and study topography in third grade? I still remember making a topography map of the US on cardboard, and carrying it to school, terrified that it would plummet to the ground and shatter. My kids had the same assignment at about the same age. Third grade seems to be the period of blue fingers which came about from the blue food dye which was used for the rivers and important lakes. Yellow was the mountains, but the blue covered the yellow quite nicely.

So we’re all only as stupid as we allow ourselves to be, but this doesn’t apply to football picks.
