My husband and I have a theory that there should be wormholes between
places with the same name, so you only have to drive to the one nearest
and then travel almost instantaneously to the distant one. We think
this every time we set off on the 10-hour drive to my parents, and pass
a town of the same name about 1 1/2 hours into the journey!

That's nothing...in Ohio, I can visit London, Paris, Cairo, Lima,
Toledo and Mantua in a day. Of course, some of them are pronounced
oddly; Mantua is "Man-ta-way"; Lima is "Ly-ma" like the bean. Cairo and
Paris are just wide spots in the road.
Except for Toledo, none of them have a fabric store. :-(

Did this post make anyone else's head hurt from the names involved (grin)?
Poland? Then I got the feeling that the country wasn't what was named by
Youngstown, but then Boardman (which is in Oregon as far as I'm concerned)
came up. Then we had China (Canton) to balance out Poland!
That's what happens when you read in the preview screen and haven't
an clue
what you have just opened.

the US
