lol ... I love Abbot and Costello ... I watched a lot of the reruns as a kid in the 80s to know who they are. And I definitely remember this classic.

It made me think more about those Native named placenames .... I remember one dad told me a long time ago was 'Ptarmigan guts creek' (it sounds weird and funny in Ojibway) ... another was 'Having Sex' or 'Fucking' Rapids ... for the longest time, I thought these places were a joke and didn't exist. When I repeated them to many other people, they confirmed that this is what they were called.
