Sweep the streets I used to own"

As anyone can see
There isn't anybody else
Exactly quite like me'"

Q: The company that Bobo works for just finished a new product. They wanted to promote it across the country. Bobo was asked to travel by car to each of the 48 contiguous U.S. states to promote the product. He was told that he could visit each state in whatever order he chose, but the company wanted him to start in Delaware, at their headquarters.
They asked that he visit each state only once. He could not go back into a state he had already visited-this was the "Don't Look Back" product tour. So, Bobo sat down at his desk and began to plan his trip.
He realized immediately that it was going to be one long car trip. At that moment, his boss stopped by and said, "Hey, I'm going to join you when you reach your last state. I was born there and I've been looking for a reason to go back and visit. You can leave your rental car there, and I'll fly you back in my private jet."
Since Bobo hadn't planned his trip yet, how did his boss know which state was going to be Bobo's last state? And, which state would that be?
A: The only state that works is the one that borders only one other state - Maine.

Q: There was a contest to guess the numbers of gold coins in the store window. Jane guessed 61, Will guessed 59, John guessed 60, Sally guessed 58 and Bob guessed 62. One was correct. Two were wrong by two. Two were off by one. The question is, how many gold coins were in the store window?
