    Andorra, Moldova, Malta and erm um well, I'm spent.
    That's three correct. I'm gonna give killer a hint on the fourth. It became a country in the 1990s

    I don't know if this counts but Bosnia and Herzogovena (sp.?)
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    That's the one. I myself would have been unsure also, but Wiki says it's a country, spelling is Herzegovina. Good job.

    I know it's a country I remember their flag at the olympics, but I didn't think it qualified cause of the Bosnia part

    Should I do one?

    It is my understanding that Puerto Rico is a US protectorate. So I'll say Puerto Rico. If Puerto Rico isn't eligible I'll say Manhattan

    Puerto Rico is a US protectorate, however both PR and Manhattan are incorrect.

    Yeah - the Jays stadium is nice (I have family in Scarboro and Markham), been there many times.

    Seriously though, you want to get to the Millenium Stadium in cardiff - it is world class with a galaxy class atmosphere !
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Yeah? My parents and sister live in Markham. Next time you plan a visit, drop me a pm, maybe we can get together for beer at the Duchess of Markham, they have a great patio in the summer.
