Piscacadawadaquoddymoggin Again?
April 14, 2008 | No Comments
Mr. Keillor,
I was listening to the News from Lake Wobegon from 4/12. You had mentioned that the band had played in Piscacadawadaquoddymoggin in Canada. Now, I had heard that there was a Piscacadawadaquoddymoggin, Maine several times; but I've never heard of one in Canada. Was this a mis-speak, or is there a Piscacadawadaquoddymoggin in Canada as well, like there are two Albanys and such?
Clarification would be very helpful on this matter.

My mistake, Grace. The town is Picadawagan.
