I was at DisneyWorld...after a long day of walking I had my feet up in
the hotel room  and figured I'd catch up on the local-yocal Florida news
..

The weather map had the New England states abbreviated...

.....with "Mass." for Massachusetts.....and "MA" for Maine....  

Which probably made sense to a Floridian!
