geog. euphemisms

[James A. Landau]

"Arkansas toothpick"

for a geographical anti-euphemism: "Mississippi River mud"

"Washington DC, that unique combination of Northern graciousness and Southern
efficiency"   (alternate: "Canada offers American manners, French efficiency,
and English cooking")

a little far-fetched but "wienie" meaning "penis"

"Swiss cheese" referring to the results of a gun battle

"Bluegrass treatment" referring to the old Bluegrass Hospital for treating
narcotics addicts
