Let us not forget Leet, Pennsylvania; a town about as ironically named as possible, which would not be lost on the typical person who would be reading this very comment.
Why I happen to be from Scranton, Pennsylvania, so I know all about the wonderful names our cities and towns have in good ole PA (where it is actually snowing at the moment) including some of my favorite towns: Mars, Bethlehem, and Nazareth. :D
@beatlesgirl95; I love it when I'm talking to people, and I say, "Yeah, so I've been to Mars (Pennsylvania), Cuba (New York), Morocco (West Virginia), Athens (Georgia), and Hell (Michigan)." And they never believe me.
Of course, they are a bunch of Californians, so don't expect too much outta them.
He's written two books, eh? And they're some of the funniest things I've ever read. Also, he did a voice in the movie Coraline, where his character - appropriately enough - is briefly voiced by John Linnell to sing a song.

Great recognition for one of the best venues in the city. Thanks, Hodgman and TMBG for the tribute!

The Youghiogheny river flows into the Monogahela and is damn near impossible to spell correctly since it is pronounced...

Best damn comment ever. And informative too!
You have my eternal gratitude and respect, oh wise one from Ohio or Pennsylvania or perhaps went to school there.

hmm... how about Upper Bottom in Buckingamshire?
"Where do you live?" "Upper Bottom!"
(this would sound alot like 'up a bottom' and would be rather embarrasing if you were misunderstood!)

I have to agree with you. The actor they have playing the narrator does a spify job as a PC. ROFL!

Those books weren't funny! I find nothing funny about the tome of knowledge that gives such great knowledge as "Hobo Names" and "Hobo Symbols."

Spoken like a true hobo, using the library's PC to catch up on TMBG!
