My homepage is Yahoo! and sometimes the most interesting things pop up. Today, one of the topics that came up was America's Funniest Small-Town Names by Christine Sarkis. There are:
Truth or Consequences, New Mexico
Boring, Oregon
Cool, California
Uncertain, Texas
Carefree, Arizona
Last Chance, Idaho
Accident, Maryland
&
Normal Illinois
Those are the ones they talked about. I also like the cities Kissimmee, Florida or Bisbee, Arizona.
Oh by the way if I re-do a Sunday Quote PLEASE tell me! I'd hate to repeat myself.

Kind of funny that Carefree is listed. I never thought of it as a weird name for a town. Go figure!
I would think Surprise, AZ would be listed. I'd never heard of it before I went to EAC. There was a girl there who was from Surprise and when she told people where she was from, she'd say it like, "Surprise!" so we thought she was kidding.
Can you imagine writing out "Truth or Consequences" on all those address forms you end up filling out everywhere?

I always laugh when I go through Effingham, IL.
