Peking is now Bejing. What's up with that? Shouldn't we change the name of Waco to Whacko or something more descriptive?

David Karesh, Cindy Sheheen and the pharmacist who invented Dr Pepper. Yep, it's time to rename the place.

Waco is really more of a Colt 45 town.

Personally, I'm more anxious for Istanbul to change back to Constantinople. I refuse to visit until they change it.

From "A History of Kansas City":


Legend has it that the new owners held a meeting at which one of the subjects was a name for their new township. After rejecting such ideas as Port Fonda, Rabbitville and Possum Trot, they decided to name it the Town of Kansas, after the Kansa Indians who inhabited the area.

How does "Possum Trot" sound to ya?

To be fair, the name of Beijing never changed, the spelling was just changed to more accurately reflect what it was actually called. Sort of like Edo vs. Tokyo.

And I think the residents prefer St. Petersburg now.

I always wondered how the French word for China came to be "Chinois", pronounced "she-nwah". Then I discovered that the Chinese word for China is pronounced.....[drum roll] "she-nwah".

Absolutely not. Then they'd be Leningrad.

On the Brazos? They have halibut?

It's a little chilly up here for halibut fishing right now. Air temp was -7 on the way to work, which means I keep my butt off of a boat.

The irony of this is that, you probably don't know this, I was born not too far from St. Pete.
