    LMAO Thanks for posting, Candace. I needed a chuckle on this gloomy, chilly day, since I'm feeling gloomy and chilly too. I need Spring and sunshine in my life - I'm sick of the Winter that doesn't want to end. Enough is enough, already ! Possible snow on Tuesday - say it isn't so.....



    How about:?

    Sweet Lips, TN
    Oddville, KY (I know some people that should live there)

    And when you don't know a "kill" is a waterfall, Fishkill, NY is an odder name!

    They missed Sandwich, Illinois (DeKalb County, population 7500). And Normal - named for the Illinois Normal School (for teacher training) that was located there- it's now Illinois State University.

    I always liked Flin Flon, a town in Canada (Manitoba?) which always seems to show up on the arctic blast weather maps.

    There's also a small town around there called Catskill. I've been there with one of my cousins many times, very nice little town.
