I don't see Arkansas or Tennessee either.

Bart: Nowhere special.
Jim: Nowhere special? I always wanted to go there.
Bart: Come on.

I accept and respect your identity as long as it's not dumb shit like "identifying as a vaccinated attack helicopter".

I saw a CNN map once that had Missouri labeled as "MS". I'm guessing whoever was making the map didn't know the abbreviation for Missouri and took a bad guess.

"MO" should be "AR"! =:-O Thanks for pointing it out, bugo. My wife's family didn't come from east of Oklahoma, more like North of Oklahoma, and it's not Kansas! xD

We tend to be wrong sometimes on the internet when we think we "know" some stuff, but try to relearn it on the somewhat reliable wikipedia or use google search, and have CNN staff learn a little more of geography before repeating the same errors or mistakes (don't we all make them?) when displaying a map of a (or nearby) state.
Get your kicks...on Route 99! Like to turn 66 upside down. The other historic Main street of America.
