Well, I might be willing to respond if you would be so kind as to define
"Potomian."  I couldn't find it in any of my dictionaries.  Didn't know
from the subject if you were referring to a body of water, a person, or
some other venue ;-).  For example:

He:  "What do you want to do about dinner tonight?"

She:  "Let's go to that new restaurant that just opened in Clarendon.  I
hear they have great Potomian cuisine."

He:  "Are you sure?  I heard from a guy at work that the place also
features scantily clad Potomian dancers that perform right in front of
your table!"

She: "Well at MY office they said it was a group of five Potomian
strolling accordian players that play "Lara's Theme" right at your table!

He:  "Sounds fine with me.  I'll make a reservation."
