Oceania, East Asia and Eurasia

Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, North America and South America. (Or to quote Randy Newman, "South America stole our name...")

I'll add that Randy Newman (for those who don't know his songwriting), in that song, was playing a character dumb enough to think that. (The song's called "Political Science," written in 1970. He later called it "Never out of date, unfortunately.")

You mean there's more than the United States? Wait, United States is not a continent?

Okay, kidding. I got them all.

Bit of Ueless Trivia for everyone (or something for Keith to use in his next Quiz)....

Australia is not just the World's Smallest Continent, it's also the World's Largest Island, so we get the best of both worlds out here :-D

I got it. Antarctica almost busted me though. My list went:

Asia
Australia
Europe
Africa
South America
North America

Then my thoughts were "$*#@! What is the seventh one. CRAP! Oh, it must be Antarctica. Is that it? Now how the hell do I spell it?"
