WJC: USA wins gold

It’s because the BJs didn’t win, the Rangers gave up the game.  Stupid Andrus.

j/k  Rangers had no right to be where they were considering last season and spring training.  I’m looking forward to next year when they make Bautista eat his bat.

Cuba is omitted because the US holds an open ended lease for complete jurisdiction and control of Guantanamo Bay and Cuban authorities have absolutely no jurisdiction on the premises. It is for all intents and purposes, American soil. Furthermore, the US and Cuba have no diplomatic relations. So, if anything it is actually more of an occupation than a legit overseas military installation.

But I see your point. I would probably put it on the map. I didnt make the map you see. I just put it up because it was related to the other topic and I found it interesting.

Clearly you did too. ;-)

Well done. They met once. Is a trivial pursuit/general knowledge question often asked.
I never remember the answer when I need it!

Ahhh …pure gold …

@Rune:

As far as I’m concerned, people have to work for my vote, it’s not just something I give away without thinking.

Let me rephrase how i understand this:
People have to work … and do my thinking.

@Rune:

…I wouldn’t be able to remember something two years ago either.  …

Yeah, two years is such a long time.

:D

Thank G-d! That explains everything. :D

Question, I don’t know the answer. Is China’s Government Elected?

Yes, most of the positions in the government are based on election, though often these elections are rigged. There hasn’t been once been a successful and smooth transfer of power (usually ending in bloody coups) since it went communist

China is experiencing more economic growth because it has become a combination of Communism and Capitalism.

I wouldn’t exactly call it communist. More like socialist.

Intresting… perhaps I should try some mind games of my own. :wink:
