I think anyone can start a meeting and post a link. If the host doesn't pay for Zoom, the meeting will terminate after 40 minutes...

Just watched the Rock Lobster video. I see I haven't really missed out by not knowing about that song...
The abbreviation video, on the other hand, was great!

KY jumped out at me. VA followed.
I got pulled off track by ID WA IA and others but when I started finding duplicates I knew I was off track.
Then found NC and GA. It took me a minute to realize I needed to keep going around clockwise; AL MS AR MO.
I kept looking for SC. I had to get out the map to see that
that TN does not share a border with SC so Tennessee seemed like the answer but it almost seemed too easy so I decided to think about it before submitting or declaring.

There was one down row that seemed very unusual and gave my that final ‘click’:

Well, all I can say is, "Sometimes you're the windshield...sometimes you're the bug."

I totally get the construction, hindsight of course is 20/20...I was onto States, and State abbreviations...I just never connected on the A-HA with the perimeter answers (sigh). Oddly, I'm not entirely sure whether this is a Kas 4 or a Kas 5...it's not so difficult that I would never have gotten it, but sometimes your brain just...misses, you know?
