Well, it isn't the best in the world, but it's (supposed to be) a school
map of the United States.

I guess I managed to draw the lower 49 instead of the lower 50.

How's this for Louisiana?

Duh, I just realized that I said lower 49 instead of the lower 50.  I
meant that I managed to draw the lower 47 instead of the lower 48. 
Duh.  I think it is time for sleep.

Puerto Rico?  Hmmm.  How does this look.  I don't have a lot of time
right at the moment.  I will work on making North America later today
(hopefully.)  If I get Mexico in there it should improve the situation.

Ok, here's the map changed just a little.  I tried adding Mexico, Puerto
Rico, Cuba, and the Bahamas.  All comments are WELCOME!

I had some time that I wanted to get rid of.
- Straightened the west coast. (Yeah, right...)
- Tilted the northeast more south.
- Narrowed Florida. (Easier to go from one side to the other
                     for those who can't decide)
- Made south Texas pointier.
- Changed som stuff on the Mexican border. (Not the traffic, thou)

Speaking as a non-american, the mexico part seems disproportionally large -
surely nothing's bigger than the US? <G> Also, how about putting in the
US/Mexico border?

Sorry, I was in a hurry when I drew that.  You are correct.  Oh well, it
was a good thought anyway.

Speaking as a non-american, the Canada part seems disproportionately
small. But perhaps it's because the dollar has fallen so low that the
country seems to have disappeared entirely.

It's odd that such a whacking great coin could have so little value.
It reminds me of the old British penny.

Actually, to be honest, I liked it better before I added Mexico.  The
reason Canada is so small is because it's not there.  The entire top
portion is the United States, but that's another story.  It isn't very
good.  I probably shouldn't have bothered posting it.

Is the coin supposed to have rough edges ?
I could diddle it more round easily but some coin are not perfect round shapes by nature
and it would be silly to diddle it more round if the coin wasn't round

BTW .. Normand Veilleux .. isn't he dead ? (RIP)

Thanks!

I figured that Kyle. It was my idea of a little joke. Lots of times I
look at weather forecasts on US television stations and the map used
looks like the US is an island (no Mexico or Canada)

No, no. It's good. I'm glad you posted it.
How about putting just a vague hint that there are other landmasses
attached to the US, something like this:

I'm not entirely sure where PuertoRico is so I left all those little
islands - one of them must be the right one.

I notice that on the map on this page:
http://www.kgs.ukans.edu/AASG/AASG.html#STATES
there are insets of Alaska and Hawaii. How about adding those to your
map?

The coin is not round. There is a picture of it at
http://www.clta.on.ca/hillsofmexico/canadacorner/looney01.htm

The even huger (and almost as worthless) two dollar coin IS round
http://www.cronum.com/ukdol.htm


In searching for a photo of the "toony", I came across this article
