^Nope.

I'll wait this one out. It's too easy for me, but I'll let some others have a go.

I enjoy hanging on Thames though. Via Via makes a mean slice of pizza as well.

Newarkbomb, i think your post is talking about Fort Myers, FL. As for my post, that's not the correct city. It is a Northeastern city though.
