I'm seeing a pattern of little "things" happening around U.S. towns with ME names. I hope you are wrong since I am sitting in the little town of Goshen (named after the biblical region in Egypt)! I'll be on the lookout though. ;-)

I've never given it much thought until now, but there are so many cities named after ancient cities.
Philadelphia comes to mind as well. ;-)
