<Asa Lovejoy>Silly headlines that never were
I came home from work early and started thinking, which is always dangerous for me to do. I wondered how many oddly named towns might have made the news - IF:
Drain, Oregon: Major flooding clogs Drain
Asse, Belgium: Walloons, Flemish come to terms, sign Peace of Asse
Have you others?

TrossLIf there really IS a Drain, OR, then your made up headline might be pretty accurate right now. They are having horrible flooding up there.

<Asa Lovejoy>Yes, there really is a Drain, Oregon, just off I-5 . It's on Google maps.
Most of Oregon's not as bad as the hyperbolic news people say, but the coast IS taking a beating. I'm in Oregon, and it's just raining here, nothing more.
