Can you imagine saying "I am from Hicksville"?
LOL I use to live not to far from there and a old friend still lives there. So she does have to say "I am from Hicksville"
There's also a town around there somewhere that was called Possum Hill.
Just a few towns I know of in Florida.

You'd be surprised (no pun intended) but the town of Surprise is booming. It's going to have one of the largest malls in the State! Housing is booming there.Originally posted by Uabassoon
I saw this on another board I'm on and thought it was neat. All states have a city or two with a funny/strange name. What cities are in your state? My two favorite here in Az are
Bumble Bee, Arizona
Surprise, Arizona (I think the surprise is that there is nothing at all in that town!)
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

The one that comes to mind right now is Between, GA. It's kind of amusing to call someone on the cell phone as you are driving through. When they ask where you are, the honest answer is "I'm in Between."There is also a little town in our county called Parrott, GA.
