Tyratae offers up a meme that I could not resist, simply because I have lived in SO many places that home is a leech-slippery idea for me. "Where're you from?" people ask. Uh. Planet Earth?

My list isn't nearly as impressive, but I can't help wondering what on earth Iowa is doing with a town named Pacific Junction. Did one of the Pacific rail lines pass through there? It's a mighty long way from the ocean.
