Next stop, Ripened Fish Thighs
The meme of the moment is "remixing" transit maps, or replacing station names with anagrams. The Baltimore version has particular resonance, since I had a bit part in an Ill Dorm FIlm (Milford Mill) and a certain blogger I went to college with used to live closest to Smiling Owls (Owings Mills), and she likes Owls, smiling or otherwise. I was one Mad Minnow (Mondawmin) getting my drivers' license at the MVA location there. Next-More Talking (Lexington Market) is among the closer stations to the Talking Head, formerly the Ottobar, before it moved uptown.
Also particularly good are the maps for DC (pdf), LA (very apt local names) and London (of course).
BoingBoing has a more complete list.
