Yes they do, but that's not it.

Have they all got a watery boundary.
Only if you include rivers, Mick.
(at least there are OTHER states with pretty obvious water boundaries that aren't included in the list, so...)
Gun laws, politics, and order of statehood are also not yielding any obvious reasons for this grouping of states.

Hint: If you were looking at a list of all fifty states, it might be obvious.

I did too. And I'm an American citizen.
EDIT (I'm looking at an alphabetical list, though. Is that right, or is it the wrong kind of list?)

.....wouldn't it be great if that weren't the right answer but just a coincidence?
You got it! Your turn.

We all know there is no such thing as coincidence, Mark.
All right, here is the next one, which I tried to adopt from a Mensa puzzle. Hope it works.
Out of the seven PMs in my Inbox, Mark's is immediately before Papaya's. Bill's is between Mystry's and Mick's. Iamnobody's is immediately after Jajdude and there are two people between Iamnobody's and Mystry's. Mystry's is immediately after Papaya's.
From the top of the list, what is the order of PMs?

A blacksmith has six sections of chain, each with four links. If it takes him 20 seconds to open and close a link with his tools, what is the minimum amount of time he would need to make one length of chain out of these six sections?
