I think Washington state has the most.
Where you can go from Puyallup to Walla Walla in about 3 hours

Of course, Frank has Hohokus

What about your place?

Frank also has Piscataway...where the town council once passed a law requiring cats to be on leashes if outside.

I told them that the council of a town with a name like Piscataway ought not to screw with cats, because if you take the "cat" out of Piscataway, New Jersey...you are left with Pisaway, New Jersey...and a monumental image problem.

My last name immediately came into play.

There is a mountain in Germany called Wank, and a village called ******* in Austria. There's a place in Broome County, New York State named 'Killawog' - I understand the BNP are holding their next AGM there.

@neologist,
It's pretty far. You have to go through Government Camp and a whole lot of nothing to get to Bend.

If you got to go through Cake or Climax it might be worth it.
