The Most Popular Beverage In Spiceland

Can you name the President of Guatemala
    How 'bout the islands off the coast of Sahara
  Would you happen to know the currency of Iceland
    And what about the most popular beverage in Spiceland 

  I myself have forgotten last year's Super Bowl Winner
    Not to mention what I ate last night for dinner
  As for my wife's birthday and our anniversary
    I quickly mumble something far too cursory

  So now that I've been relocated from the frying pan to the fire
    My odds of living 'til sundown ~ two notches below dire

AH, GEOGRAPHY.....we learned the gross national product, name, location in reference to the world, of so many "countries" that no longer exist or that have been dissected, overrun, re-bordered and re-named......that small room in the cavernous cerebral closet ... closed for renovations.

Some of my favorite such countries were Danzig, Herzegovina, and the United States of America. ~ Disunited

What does all of that have to do with the price of eggs in China? I think you've got a disconnected wire, GW:) captcha code VRM

Goody, goody gumdrops! I heard they eat lice in China too, since they cannot plonounce 'rice.' ~ Gelshon
