Hey now, that's my hometown!
I still cannot believe no one has opened up a Wishy Washy Laundromat of Walla Walla Washington. There is a record shop called "Hot Poop" that bills itself as the "Walla Walla Bing Bang" record shop, though.

There is a town called Mystic in Connecticut that one would think they could find a magic user. There is a town in Massachusetts named Ware. That could lead to a long and tiring exchange between the players and GM.
Player 1: "Where are we going next?"
GM: You are going to Ware
Player 1: "That's what I asked you. Where are we going?"
GM: Ware.
Player 1: "Just answer the question!"

Now I'm feeling the need to go found a town...
