[78-L] Funny Town Names

[Taylor Bowie]

Years ago,  I had my picture taken standing in front of the vacant movie 
theater in the truly boring little town of Boring...the old auditorium had a 
HUGE vertical sign which spelled out B-O-R-I-N-G in giant letters.

Alas,  I heard that the theater burned down a few years ago,  so Boring is 
even more boring than before.
