I have a weekend job as a receptionist to make some extra money. I sit at a desk by myself and answer the phone. I have a lot of time with nothing to do. I'm not complaining. It is a nice easy weekend job. I can use the internet. However, my mind needs something to keep it occupied. I like going online and learning new things. I have already memorized:
The state capitals, world capitals, kings of england, counties of Ireland, periodic table of elements, presidents, vice presidents, presidential election losers and where all the countries are on a map.
Any suggestions for things to learn?
