Ohiowa



"Last night on this show, I was talking about the state of Ohio during
a segment in which I was also talking about the state of Iowa and my brain
somehow combined them and I ended up christening a new place in America
called Ohiowa. And all day long, I have been doing that now. And I`m
worried I may have accidentally rewired my brain, so that Ohiowa is the
only thing I can say whenever I try to say either Ohio or Iowa. I now have
a whole set of new words I have to say very slowly -- in this case, to
avoid saying, accidentally, Ohiowa." - Rachel Maddow 10/24/2012

Only separated by about 150 miles of Iraq or Turkey. No big deal.
