"Erewhon" was book, I think. I believe the author was Samuel Butler, but I don't know what it's about, aside from some place called Erewhon.

back home in Christchurch, New Zealand, there is a prominent landmark on the main beach called Shag Rock, but it's named such because there are lotsa of shags (birds) who live in/on it.
i have never shagged on it, but i have got pretty close, but it's not the most comfortable locale.

In Ireland, there is a town called Muff that my wife has always wanted to visit....

there's a place called Wetwang on the way to Bridlington, when you're driving there from York. Apparently Richard Whitely has something to do with it, but what I do not remember.

and I quite like Westward Ho! purely cause it's the only place in the world I know of with an exclamation mark after it.

on a roadtrip once, I drove through a town called "YoucrazybitchImgonnagougeyourdamneyesout". It was a Native American word, I think.

There's a Muff in Donegal too. Could we really have named two Irish towns Muff?

I'd bet that STDs run rampant in that town, what with all the booze and tawdry sex and all. Not to mention lots of unfufilled women from all these dumb shlubs who get too drunk to keep it up.
