There are many pros to doing this, economic and social and what-not, and perhaps a few cons.
But the main reason is so that when we make cardboard cut-outs of our country to hold up at rallies, we can hold them by the two peninsulae. Plus, if you fold it just right, Florida will have double support
for easier carrying.

Well, one does have to approve of your logic. But you're going to be required to move there and govern it. |
|
| |
I'll be auditing your progress every month. Make up the spare room, will you? |
|

I approve the idea but i foresee technological problems: the Baja peninsula is somewhat thin and would break/get torn away easily. I say go for the whole Mexico, then the cut-outs could be held as an assault rifle (with Florida being the clip). |

Yes, this is good, but I'd delete Kansas
as well to create a convenient peep hole
in the middle. I'm sure it wouldn't be
missed, and besides, I've already read
the William Least-Heat-Moon book. Big

I'd delete Kansas just because. |

If you also took a coastal strip of Canada - what is that called, Vancouver or something, you could get Alaska in the same piece and not have to tote around the extra Alaska chunk. |

Hawaii poses a problem, but could be ceded to the Canadians and Mexicans in exchange. Maybe the Big Island for Mexico (there are a lot of them!) and the rest to Canada. Now would that be a sweet deal or what? |
|
| |
As for Alaska, yeah. I agree. We should grab the west coast of Canada. |
|
| |
But I like Hawaii. I'd be willing to carry Hawaii around in my pocket in order to keep it. I'd have my kids hold the major islands up for the rally. |

Canada is as dull as dishwater.... and
they hunt seals. Alaska would still
remain joined with an oil pipe - so I'd
say: "Bye Bye Canada, but who will miss
you?" |

Wait a couple of hundred million years and it will become part of B.C. <link> |

I knew this would smoke some of them
out. "Canada" is the name of choice for
Roche's new super strong sleeping tablet.
(starts international incident, then
sucks thumb under the table) |

I think that the US would also be an acceptable answer. The host didn't specify whether the traveller was heading north or south. |
