Naples! Before I was a teacher, I worked for a law firm.  An attorney
asked me to contact the airlines and find out travel info from Chicago
to Naples, via Tampa.  So I did.  Gave him the info.....
he couldn't believe the price and the length of the flight.  I thought
he meant Naples, Italy.
Duh!!!!!  WRONG!  He obviously meant Naples, Florida

Also...Paris, Illinois
and Marseilles (pronounced Mar - SAILS) Illinois

Readingly yours,
Chris
