I will post, and make it a "fifth" from Alabama here on this thread!
*Raises hand and waives it* Does Alaska count? I want to count! Invariably when giving my address to some one "outside" and we get to the state abbreviation, they try to put in AL. "Ummm no, that's Alabama." "Really? A-l-a..." "It's AK." "OK. Wait. Isn't that Arkansas?"

Kinda like the lady reviewing the HS graduation diploma printing information calling me into her office. "You spelled your middle name wrong." "Ummm, nope. After 18 years with it, I think I know how to spell my name. That's right." "No, you spelled it wrong." She argued with me for about 15 minutes about how I spelled my name. Really. I finally just told her "It's Spanish", and that she accepted.

(Invisigoth, your signature together with your avatar cracks me up!)
