I like the 2-minute calculus blitz, myself :-P

A lot of the word jumbles are also quite good.

I also got 7:21! No way. I wasted too much time searching the map for states I didn't see yet.

Looked at the map, it was full, then looked at the 48/50 and thought, "WTF?"

7:47 remained.

Spoiler:
I fat-fingered a state name about 4 times, inserting extra letters. Other than that, beating me's gotta pretty much be down to typing speed. I just went methodically through the map from west to east.

Argh! 49/50. I had 49 with about 6+ minutes and couldn't think of the last state. Sorry Nebraska, but I forgot all about you.

Yeah, but I don't think I'll be any better at identifying characters and plots from trashy romance fiction, either.
