I once spent the better part of an airplane ride (or flight, if you don't believe in magic) trying to convince a girl that Wichita is named after the colloquialism "colder than a witches tit." I put forth that it was the place of the first scientific study of the temperature variations in sorceress areolas.
I don't know if it worked, she was cute but borish. I think she liked dance or something like that.
