Swill-Swallow Mountain
LauraGigs:
Does mainstream media pay any attention to literary news (besides Harry Potter and Dan Brown)? I wouldn't worry, John.

Aguirre: "Up on Swill-Swallow..."
Jack: "Swill-Swallow got us good, don't it?"
Jack: "All we got now, is Swill-Swallow Mountain!"
Lureen: "He said he wanted them scattered on Swill-Swallow Mountain..."

OMG, Laura, that's hilarious!
Old Man Twist: "I know where Swill-Swallow mountain is..."

OK, now I'm truly laughing out loud in my office. Thanks for that Laura! Yeah, if nothing else... "Swill-Swallow" would probably turn into a ridiculous tongue twister after a while. It really is pretty awful.
