So everyone on the internoodle is so excited that Al Franken drew a map of the U.S. from memory. "Big deal," we thought, and challenged our writers and editors to do the same.
Julieanne: Close.

Julie: Oklahoma is more than OK -- it's on the map twice.

Emily: Appears to have gotten distracted after penciling in her home state.

CJ: Our saucy blogger gets political -- and in color!

Erin: Pretty good, but she did get two do-overs.

Lydia Weary: A reader from Columbus, Ohio, sent in this fancy-pants version, explaining, "Here's a map I drew from memory for a sign that I took to a concert a few years back. The song 'Monday Comes Around' is a b-side from Switchfoot's album 'The Beautiful Letdown.'" Color us impressed!

Ryan: Julieanne's friend contributed a digital guide to the nation's goods and services.

Nick: A reader apologetically sent this in with the note, "Wanted to blame this on someone under 21... but truthfully, this is the product of US High School Education! (And 2 years of college too!!)" Showoff!

Reader Meg sent u s this hilarious map! We want to live where cheese lives.
