Well, one presumes that the community in the New World was probably
named by homesick Lower Slobbovian immigrants brought in to herd
shmoos...

(Actually, I learned the expression, used to describe a theoretically
distant but actually nonexistent locality, from my late English ex-
mother-in-law (thus "ex" in both senses of the prefix...?!)

I also learned another one in the USAF...rather more colourful but
totally unsuitable for an e-mail list catering to mixed company!
