19 should not count. The correct pronunciation in Hawaiian is not "pooh-pooh" but "po-oh po-oh".

Whiskey Dick is interesting. The mountaineer who named it named quite a few peaks after cocktails he enjoyed. He was a drinker, not a pervert.

Farther east, what about the Gran Tetons? That's French for Great Tits, I'm told, referring to the shape of the peaks.

Might add Crackerville, Montana (not ironic at all, no sirree).

I remember growing there being a North and South Where in New Hampshire when I was growing up. I always got a kick out of the highway markers that would say things like "No. Where, Next 2 Exits"

Is anyone else not surprised that Looneyville is in Texas? :D

I have been through Lolita (there's just no good way to say that), but...no Muleshoe, Texas? Or Ding Dong? No Cut and Shoot? What about Tarzan, or Hogeye, or my favorite: Bugtussle?

DAILY QUOTE:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
