I picked up a message at my desk about an hour ago. Lucklily I didn’t talk to the person calling because I might have said something I might have regretted.
She sounded very adamant that we had made a mistake in our June issue of What’s Up? Annapolis, a mistake that made her angry and disgusted. “How dare we refer to Annapolis as Naptown when everyone knows that is the nickname of Indianapolis.”
Gee, I did know that some people call Indianapolis Naptown but I didn’t think they had exclusive ownership. I’ve certainly never heard Annapolis called Crabtown with any regularity. And hey, what’s with all those “Naptown” bumperstickers on people’s cars? And just to reinforce the Naptown idea, it just so happens that when we registered our Golden Retriever with the American Kennel Association, we named her Grace of Naptown. So folks, if you are reading this blog. Please make your opinion known. Is it Naptown or Crabtown?
NAPTOWN FOREVER!
