14 Great Places to be From

I love where I live now. It's quiet, safe-ish, relatively clean, and I always have a spot to park my car. When I lived in Hoquiam, WA, I wasn't so happy. My friends there are fabulous, but the town itself screams blah. The weather is usually gray, a lot of the neighborhoods are falling apart, and Wal-Mart is the social hub. Yes, Hoquiam is a great place to be from.

Here are some other great places to be from, but for different reasons. I just find the names amusing.

• Boring, Oregon
• Fart, Virginia
• Poopoo, Hawaii
• Hello, Michigan
• Embarrass, Minnesota
• Normal, Illinois
• No Name, Colorado
• Hot Coffee, Mississippi
• Accident, Maryland
• Truth or Consequences,  New Mexico
• Looneyville, Texas
• Why, Arizona
• Dismal, Tennessee
• Boogertown, North Carolina.  

Admit it. You'd love to meet new people and tell them you're from Boogertown or No Name. There are plenty of other strange town names out there. A few of them make me blush to even think about.
