2. Kerrytown!

OK, it's not really a city. It's a shopping and entertainment district in Ann Arbor, MI. But it's close.

11. Here's how.
The HTML lookup table shows you how to put attach a hyperlink to words.

(link:www.dcscripts.com|DCScripts)
Replace the parentheses with square brackets, and the word "DCScripts" becomes a link to www.dcscripts.com.

Or in this case, you'll want to type:
(link:www.twofacesofbush.com|two faced)

Again, replacing the parentheses with square brackets. If you do it right, it'll look like this: two faced

14. There have been plenty...
... large and small, but, more often, counties have been named for Presidents.

Washington is the only state named after a president. But, off the top of my head (not all of these were specifically named for a president):

Jefferson City, MO
Polk, LA
Lincoln, NE
Tyler, TX
Jackson, MS
Fillmore, NY
Adams, MA
Lincoln, MA
Fillmore, UT
Jefferson, ME
Madison, WI
Cleveland, OH
Taylor, TX
Jackson, TN
Port Washington, NY
Johnson City, TX
Johnson, NC

Lots more, I imagine.

31. Clinton, SC too. Local idiots in 92 printed t-shirts of a road sign
Edited on Sat Oct-02-04 01:47 PM by undisclosedlocation
showing Clinton this way, Prosperity that way. (It's a real sign, I think in Newberry; Prosperity is another little town in the area.) Then they looked even more like idiots for the next 8 years.
