My second try was 13040 points. But Japan is kind of a gimme, and Boston was even easier.
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Hmmph. How are you getting cities? I'm getting mostly wilderness, in Scandinavia, Brazil, Australia, Canada. Only city so far was Kiev, but I guessed Dnipropetrovsk.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
That moving ice was freaky. Would not be happy to have ice crawling up my yard.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mr. Peabody slipped out of his collar while we were just supposed to be getting the mail. He led me on a 40-minute chase that I was not in shape for. At the end, he ran home and ran inside. Little devil.
Bad Peabody, bad!
I think I keep critters indoors in fear of these things. Well and because I know that where I live the night is dark and full of terrors.

Have I mentioned that my neighborhood is very hilly?
Apparently what I need to get in my aerobic exercise is a chase-the-terrier workout app.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I got 10427. I wasn't doing too badly until the last one. It was a long empty road with nothing but sparse scrub around. The only thing I could tell was that they were driving on the left. I clicked a random spot in Africa. It was actually Western Australia.

I got 7/10 on a Prof or Hobo quiz. And I have a tech screen phone interview today that I'd very much like to ace.
