Charles is taking submissions for geographic puns. That is, puns on the names of places. You know, like “What did Delaware? Her New Jersey.” That sort of thing.

It reminds me of a riddle Phoebe posed to me years ago. The challenge was: “What four Oklahoma cities make a sentence?” Phoebe did not tell me the answer — which was “Sallisaw Henryetta Wagoner Bowlegs” — but left me to puzzle it out myself.

I sat at the coffee table with a beer and an atlas for half an hour, and finally announced that I had the answer: “Wewoka Hooker Heavener Beaver!”

It was then that we realized there must be hundreds of solutions. How many can you think of? (A handy list of all the towns in Oklahoma is provided.)
