Where IS Hamilton Beach, anyway?
I'm thinking somewhere between Times Beach and Omaha Beach, though I guess China Beach is more likely.

3. Oh, cool! Sorry, I could have looked that up; just assumed it was somebody's name

5. No, that's GEORGE Hamilton Beach.
Then there's Edith Hamilton Beach, but I think that's just a myth.
